I miss the house out completely if they are out, that way they need them done much more often.

I think that's the idea, Jammy... not such a silly one either...

Most people skip the bathroom windows anyway.

To make up for it I sometimes do the garage windows if small.

Sounds like your a scammer more then anything. The occasional semi monthly miss of the bathroom windows okay, but this is just too much.

clean and shine, the reason i asked was, they are making this website using something called office live, its free

so soon theyll probably say we've made you a new website, and youll be paying for a free site.
Title: Re: how i earned 1000's more a year
Post by: Village Gleam on January 05, 2008, 07:42:18 pm
The Free sites on office live can't be beaten. I'd already signed for £50 pa hosting and bought frontpage £180 to do it with. What a mug I am when its free and you can either lift someone elses site or fill in one of their eay to use templates.

I would bet you will have to pay for that in the future, I saw a company many years ago do the same thing, I lost a domain name to them and had to pay over £200 just to get the name back, lost the site aswell.

but for now it is free so dont worry about it, not much you can do about it anyway.

would be nice to findout what they do charge in the future.

I am  having software on a new site where you can design your own and pay minimal for it this will not happen for at least 6 months though as I want it right before I launch it.

Was it you LWC who had the ladderless van photo in the nationals because you had ladders on the roof?

About JD, his last posts, just after Dia had called his bluff were wild. They ended in some photo's. Can any one remember the photo? it had a range rover in it and he was knelt at the back.

Move to larger custom built premises
As a direct result of the company's continued growth and success,
D.P.Design & Print is moving on to bigger and better
premises on November 1st 2007

Our recent purchase of a 8 Tower Web Offset press
has facilitated the need to have built custom premises
to house the new piece of equipment. .

Unlike sheet fed presses Web Offsets use reel paper
which is substantially less expensive than traditional
sheet paper - That coupled with direct to plate -  On-line
set up -Simultanoiuse Double Sided Printing and
In-line Cutting and Folding we have been
able to cut our prices even further.
