It's mainly aimed at contract type cleaning/hygiene industry, not too much for window cleaners.
I was there about 3 hours including a coffee break.

Post by: Moderator David@stives on March 13, 2007, 05:17:05 pm: 3 hours is a bit short to really examine all the new stuff on show this year.

I would 3 hours just to ask Ionics how it all works.

I am going tommorrow and Thursday and will be annoying everyone and playing spot the ciu member as well.

Post by: DASERVICES on March 13, 2007, 05:27:27 pm: I fly out Weds evening and will be at the show Thursday, it's worth taking a look at the other stands. What I will be looking for this time is a good powerful vacuum for my diy gutter vac.

Will see you there Dave, if you see an ugly guy wearing a South African rugby top that's me ;D ;D

You won't have a problem spotting CIU's only Oriental Geordie (He'll be with the short fat bloke ;)) the two missing front teeth are a givaway for a start!

Dave

I'm going in disguise, Dave. I doubt I can remember all the forum members I've wound up in the past!!!

Wor Lass has given me strict instructions to moderate myself, my alcohol intake and my mouth. It's sound advice.

She says she doesn't want me comming back with a thick lip or any more missing teeth; than I've had knocked out already.

It's times like this that I regret being a key-board warrior.

Anyway, mate; you can't miss me.

Slanty-eyes and two front teeth missing (no surprises there I guess)! ;D

Ian_Giles is providing the transport for us both, so that means we'll arrive late; his time-keeping is worse than a Private Soldier's. I've already had to put him on a charge last week for being late!

See you tomorrow (probably)! ;D
