Title: Famous customers
Post by: paul mather on June 24, 2006, 09:53:36 am: Just a bit of fun who's your most well known customer (come on trevor I'm sure you can trump whatever anyone else says!) Mine was being made made coffee by Walter Smith when he managed Everton. Conversation was alittle awkward as it was common knowledge he was about to get the boot!!

mine has to be will carling.

I never cleaned for her but I canvassed Dame Judith Dench's place once. I thought she looked familiar but the penny didn't drop until the next day.

Post by: premclean on June 24, 2006, 04:44:22 pm: Talking about Will Carling, while out the other week canvassing i spoke to Julia Carling about the possibilty of looking after her window cleaning needs. She took a card and seemed genuinely interested, saying she would phone. A very pleasant attractive lady i must say. Even funnier around the corner from her i knocked on the door of Inspector Chisholm from the series Minder. He was the one always trying to feel Arthur Daleys collar to no avail! An interesting day all in all.

Post by: Steve Mac on June 26, 2006, 07:55:46 am: My dad cleaned the windows of the chief surgeon of formula 1. Somehow he managed to blag himself 2 VIP passes to the belgian grand prix. Apparently all he did was give "Bernie" a quick call, and 'viola'! - my pops is rubbing shoulders with rubens barrichello and shuey himself!

Shame he took my mum with him and not me tho. I still haven't forgiven him for that...

Post by: paul mather on June 26, 2006, 06:54:48 pm: Does anybody remember Degsy, Derick Hatton( think he was involved in some scandal on Liverpool council) . Well just started doing his windows he lives 3 doors away from where Walter Smith used to live. Always thought I was a window cleaner to the stars. By the way I hope I look that good at his age he hasn't aged a bit and seems like a nice guy.

Post by: paul mather on June 27, 2006, 08:29:07 am: The problem with having footballers and managers as customers is that they move clubs so much you never get chance to build up a good rapport with them, before you know it they've gone, ungrateful swines!

Post by: windows_chepstow on June 27, 2006, 05:44:12 pm: I clean Limals windows from Kagagoogoo.

Does that count as a famous customer?

He even spoke to me once; honest. He said, 'shift', as he was trying to get his car out of the drive and my ladders were in the way.

I'm joking; naff I know; I think I've cleaned too many windows today!
