yep but dont use hand cream as prolongs the pain ;D I am going to love wfp this winter just thinking of not having to hold the ladders in winter. I am guessing I can also wear gloves using the pole I am sure someone will read this and let me know the facts

mbs   you got to p on your hands just like the bricklayers do
urine contains urea which goes into ladies face moisturising creams
also have a really long sauna and it thouroughly cleans the cracks
so that they can heal free from dirt

Wait till your trousers & feet are wet through, turning the custy's path into an ice-rink, hoses frozen up, window icing on contact etc. etc. you'll just love it ;D

Now why would your feet get wet, either you are doing the job wrong or you do not wear the right footwear  :P, the rest I will see  ;)

For some reason I used to get really wet feet when I started. Not now. Winter is no more fun with wfp than without. Especially with a numb hand hold the pole.

At least gloves work with wfp.

Before I found this forum I used to look at one in America where the window cleaners have to put up with -20 in the winter and 110 in the summer.
Sort of puts it all in perspective really.
