A council building was put up using self cleaning glass, where I used to live.

It was a very elaborate glass and metal design.  Glass roofs above glass ceilings etc.  Impossible to access, but that wont matter as its self cleaning, right?

It now is so black it might as well have been made of concrete.  And the only way to clean it is to abseil from a helicopter.

Hooray for the wisdom of civil servants

I like this bit on there site.

Although he promises it will not put window cleaners out of business, it will cut down on the need to clean windows so often.

if people want there window cleaned less often fine by me but when they as me to clean there windows it will be for a lot more money.
