It forecast rain until 1pm here. Wasn't bad before then but waited. Then it started and hasn't stopped. Nothing done today. 3 hours nap so wide awake for a good skin full tonight :)

a week behind schedule due to a week off plus a 3 hour one off job to clean today.day trip to southport with the folks next wednesday.rammed full with work for the next few weeks and still getting new enquiries. ;D
TBH the rain wasnt really landing on the windows much.just me getting wet!
i cant remember the last time i worked in such bad conditions.even i was surprised at customers reactions!got the odd jokey "its a good day for cleaning windows darren!"with a smile thats it!

Fair play Dazmond I just find it too depressing, rain getting in the eyes, slippy poles and for some unknown reason when its
pouring down pole and reel hoses seem to catch on everything.

Once upon a time in a far away land .......... Is that leisure time ??
No serious tho it does pee me off some times I just been home for a shower am about an hour behind but am finding my energy levels getting low now ...... May have to knock it on the head about half 10 an have some sleep ........ There always tomora I suppose ;D

i wear a cap with hood up on goretex jacket to stop rain getting in my eyes.poles are not slippy with gloves on(showa 377s) and ive not noticed hose getting caught on anything more than usual when working in wet conditions.
i dont find it depressing as im still earning money and getting through my workload.i see it as a challenge and you do get a sense of satisfaction when you get home after a bath and tea with a wallet stuffed with cash and cheques. ;D

The hoses don't, I think its just because its wet and miserable it just seems that way, I always find I have a bad hose day when
I'm already annoyed at something else.
