Hi Folks,
I Got this letter today.
I think it was a realy honest request and, I might add, understanderble.
Trouble was I went to do the job before I had recievec the post. Did the front and, as the lady was so honest, I offered to do the upstairs whenever she could afford.

Poor old luv.
Just goes to show, windowcleaning is indeed a non-essential service.

Another thought on the mater -
Energy bills have soared over the last year. I wonder how many others might try to save our bill towards the extra Gas and Electricity bills?

are OAP's poor these days ?? ?? ?? ?? i just dont know

It's an all or nothing society out there aint it really. There's always gonna be the poor old lambs out there who aint got a pot to P@*& in and who give you puppy dog eyes at the very thought of you putting their prices up. Then their neighbours tell ya they're never out the bingo hall >:( >:( >:(

In fact Dave , you will probably find that you have been undercut by another w/c by a mere pound , OAP's have had a lot more years at cutting costs than you or i !

If you want to keep the job why not suggest you do it every other month at £18 a pop. 18 x 6 = £108
Her windows stay "respectable", she pays less per annum and you get a good wack. Try it!
