yes - wet water!  :)

The stuff gets everywhere, cools you down in the summer, freezes you in the winter but not so cold if you can keep dry, makes everything wet and soggy, cant put your hands anywhere without getting cold - damp- wet - mucky!

Yuk!

With three days hard work, I can earn enough to pay the bills, food shop and have a bit left over.  So I don't mind getting rained off now and again.

It's the collecting part I dislike.

the weather is the worst ,too much bad weather and you get behined on work

I used to worry alot about the weather and getting behind with work, i used to have all my work split into 4 weeks and work from week 1 to week 4 and then start back at week one again.
I was always behind and starting on say week3 and still having a days work or so to finish from week 2.
The whole lot is now on one big list and i just keep ploughing through it and when its done i just start again wheather its been 3 and a half weeks 4weeks or 5weeks it just works on rotation nobody seems to mind and i dont get stressed about looking at my sheets and always being behind, happy days  ;D

  Loosing a customer when they die unexpectantly, I normally call it a day.

I don't mind the weather and i don't collect so the bit i dislike the most is when to drop a difficult customer or to give them the benefit of the doubt.
