Its hard to tell round here who is new and whos not but there are certainly more about. Had a leaflet through our door last week, so if you are Terry's Window Cleaning Service - CLEAR OFF we aren't interested.

We have had three laeflets delivered in the last month or so.
Each time i have called them round to give me a price on cleaning windows and gutters ;D
Then i tell them that i am also a wc after they have gone through their newbie sales pitch...should see their faces drop...lol

Did you know that your "Round' is not an asset?
It's not tangible and so therefore worthless, on paper anyway!
Our rounds are only as good as the customer saying "yes" to our service!
We don't own a "Patch, Pitch" or anything else you want to call it! ::)
I've been cleaning windows for about 8 years I suppose!
Never wanted to do an "Unskilled" job!
I thought it was beneath me (inverted snob!)
I was only helping out a friend... now look at me, happy as larry!
My point...!
Let them alone, they're just people trying to make a living ::)
If there are any dole cheats among them they will be found out in the long run. Thats not our problem and therefore not our concern! ;)

I have not seen any as yet? Seen a couple of existing companies that have got new vans in the last 6 months.
