Mad story time do you have any like it to lighten up the crap wet cold days before Xmas
Had a new job in Bromley Kent last month 10 miles out of my way you never know where it will lead to
She was a right royal pain in the
Went over the job three times before she was happy
The husband just gave me the sorry mate she does this to everyone look
Then as I was about to leave the father turns up to put his two pence worth in then says have you charged him for parking on your drive ? The on road parking is £ 3.60 an hour ………
Finally got paid yesterday
Minus £ 3.60 and told my service will not be required in future
The second mad mad story
was a small flat in central Croydon third floor after I finished the woman said her mother said Shes not happy with the clean
so I re cleaned them all again which I normally do if I get a complaint
Went back up the three flights of stairs. To be told Shes still not happy ?
So I said can she show me where she’s not happy with the clean she’s not here she’s in ……. (Another country )
I just walked away a little dazed and to be honest a little confused
Is it me ?
Or do we all get these every now and then ?

I even sent it to the wrong part of the forum 🤡

There you go ... I noticed this and have moved it for you OP.

Hi Tony,
I can't believe they charged you 3.60 for parking on there Drive, so that you could do a F&&&ing job for them,
i lived in Addiscombe East Croydon for 22 years before i sold up and moved to Galway Ireland 12 years ago, what's it
like there these days, i spoke to a mate who lives in Addington the other week, he said the ULEZ was peeing off everyone.

2 great stories - if I had been or quick wired enough I’d have said the price allows for free parking on the drive.
But the surprise would have stunned me - some people are unbelievable

Does number 1 charge for a cup of tea?
Number sounds like one of our haggling type friends.
Now where did I put that bamboo cane?👺

Hi lal
Addiscoombe for anyone who doesn’t live here sounds nice just like merry hill Glasgow sounds fun
It has become a mad house along with most of Croydon good Luck to you Off to Galway
Don’t ever come back !! Is my recommendation
you have escaped and good luck to you
the park in long lane had 2murders This year and there was a shootout in the street between two drug gangs In fact we have had eight murder stabbings this year A London record the gangs that roam fight the other gangs for being in the wrong postcode
Shops have closed down the town centre is a ghost town people are really scared to go there even in daylight
Most Pubs have gone along with anything you’d recognise as decent things to do
litter mattress and rubbish dumped everywhere flats and more flat have taken over managed decline is a nice way to describe my home town
ulez is the least of the problems traffic wardens roam in packs cameras catch you for parking yellow boxes and red routes
cycle lanes block roads with no traffic zones a simple right turn will take a 20 min detour
Most people I know have moved away
I am sort of stuck here I will move eventually but will miss the police helicopter lullabying me to sleep most nights the south London symphonies of police sirens never stop that’s the good stuf otherwise it’s quite nice here

After fifteen years of cleaning windows nothing surprises me anymore

Blocked and moved on, didnt even reply..... you cant reason with the " unreasonable "
ironically, a few months later I picked up their neighbour, and no problems whatsoever ;D

Sounds like you should have charged them for parking on their drive, they should be grateful anyone would turn up by the sounds of it.
