daft question but, for one basic ordinary sized shop window.
got me puzzled.

It was only one man going very fast, it can look a blur and some times looks like 4 or even six men.

Lynn,
Was it Motorworld in Bulwark, near Chepstow?
I used the clean their windows, but there was clutter and shop items everywhere, so I told the manager I would quote a lot more if I had to shift the merchandise myself.
The manager promised me his staff would do it for me; so I quoted him for the cleaning of the glass only.
It never really worked out like that; his staff gave the impression that they just couldn't be arsed; despite my requests for the stuff to be moved; so one morning I got a 'bag-on' after cleaning half a large shop window, stuff in my way, and just walked off.
About a month later I saw about three of the staff and the manager cleaning the windows and it looked like a heavy-duty operation.
I do two of the shops next door to him, so they must see me regularly.
That'll teach the blighters.
I guess the window cleaners you saw, were the shop staff.

Tosh, Batterbee,
nope watched them pile out of a transit with window cleaner signage on the van.
out came one ladder, 4 blokes & blade and pole at the ready,
just a basic window about 12ftx12ft.

I get around that problem by starting my shops at 6.00am and clean the most awkward ones first before they have the chance to get there stock out
