Someone woke me up for a quotation the other evening.  I was in bed.  I was tired so went to bed around 9.30.  The phone rang just after 10.

I know, how sad am I but still getting an email through at that time of night is better than being phoned up late at night surely?
Turns out the chap is working away abroad and trying to get his missus off his back by arranging for someone to get the job done.

That is why I mentioned the power of the internet as you can be anywhere in the world and still sort thing out online for back home whatever time day or night. It seems people take for granted the power of the interweb thesesdays but I'm still amazed at it all.

I didn't answer.  I picked up the message the next morning.  Wouldn't have got to the phone in time.  She phoned up the following morning - at a reasonable time.  She had an external window cleaner.  She wanted a one off internal clean.  I politely suggested that she contact her external cleaner.

Her window cleaner obviously don't do trad then like so many wfp cleaners. If thats the case I would have maybe said something like well why not buy youreslf a karcher vac then and do them yourself as my missus does our insides  ;D
