Title: Bad week!!!!!!!!
Post by: Bertie Boo on August 31, 2007, 01:35:52 am
Hi all

Yesterday the socket on the SYR interchange mop i was using snapped...not a huge problem as i always keep two in the car BUT why did this happen when i was 7 floors up in a loft-house apartment and not in a house where the car was just outside?!?!??!?!!??!!

Also today the motor burnt out in my trusty Dyson DC07 upright vac...it has taken one hell of a beating so i can't moan, but i can't recall the last time i had 2 peices of equipment break in the same week....now loosing equipment and leaving it behind, well, thats another story....

I would have been glad of that week to be honest.
Half of my business is pressure washing and I travel all over the country doing it.

On Friday last week my pump blew a gasket so I had to hire one (cost), then the hose on my extendable lance split (more cost and lost time), then to top it all I got in the van to go and get the hose fixed and my van wouldn't start... fuel pump gone (£150 for the part and God knows how much labour) so I had to hire a van for the week.
So far it all has cost me over £800 and I still haven't had the pump fixed yet!!!

Got the van back now.. phew!

Hope next week is better.
