Nobody famous (although I say hello to a TV football pundit often when I'm cleaning his neighbours - never been asked to do his yet), but I do have a Lord and a Lady on my books. (One's a good payer and the other's not!)

Friend of a friend was cleaning roy keanes, apparently he was really miserable, and its not exactly amazing but one house i picked up when the new tenants moved in had bought it off bruce jones (les batersby off of coronation street) hes moved up the road now...hed lived there for a while, i do the cul de sac and they all knew him pretty well, but he was a heavy drinker apparently and got sacked from corrie for giving away story lines whilst sloshed :)
-

Thats some list !! Id definitely be asking them to recommend me to a friend!!!
-
I used to do Jordan but it went tits up lol,i have some much more famous 1`s than have been mentioned. ;D ;D

I think Jordan is ok,but she does have her knockers.

Roger Daltrey lives miles away from Macca so you must cover a large area if your telling the truth lol. ;D
-
As well as the trout farm he has a gaff Brighton way doesn't he?
-
macca lives on the mull of kyntire
-

Stonegate just outside Heathfield and it has a trout farm,he`s lived there for years.
-
Macca has a house in Rye-Peasmarsh.
-
I think the wow - factor of these famous people is good, yet id still rather a council estate oap who pays on time than some famous bloke who is miserable as sin!!
However i could probably cope with jordan not paying, im sure we could come to some arrangement :)
-
IME so far theyre crap payers.
So far they're the worst.
I dont bin many but I binned Charley boys PPS; and the other 'Royal' one aint far behind.
-
would he have a window cleaner or have some private cleaning company do all his homes
-
Would Jordans windows have silicone all over them? ;D
-

There's a few in the South Hams of Devon, nice people and very down to earth , in touch with reality.
-
the one i clean he never phoned him self the pa did when i saw him i didnt know he lived ther i just said [dont i know you] what a daft thing to say ive been doing the windows for a few years now his realy ok
-
i have cleaned michael gorbachov house think thats how you spell it...i have cleaned gary linnekars 3 times last year.
shawn
-
I quoted for Michael Flattely's house,... Didn't get it,.. a year on and I'm still gutted! :(
-
i do some football players house next door plays for portsmouth and couple of doors up from harry but i sacked them did not like the care taker lol they are as water tight as a ducks back side
-
Saw Michael Flattleys in a mag,an absolute mansion isn't it. What price did you give him, the tight git. ;D
-
I'll admit the price was steep enough,.. but ppl like that expect perfection, and the windows are all 21 panel timber Georgian sash and could have been problematic, so I quoted enough to cover washing every window twice the first time.
His PA sent me an aerial photo of the place,.. but I'm not allowed to show anyone!!! The place is fantastic tho. He paid 3 million for it,. then spent 30 million doing it up!!!
Given the opportunity to quote again, I'd happily cut my quote in half,.. I wouldn't mind making a loss on a job like that!!
:)
-
Houses like his always look good on your c.v don't they. If you're good enough to clean his place,you're good enough to clean anyones! :) Go back and re-quote!!!!
-
We once did one & none of us new him. He had famous comedian do funny dance/walk to it for charity & it reached no 1. Didn,t do it for long, long storey, but, not prepared to be messed about even if your famous. (His son was his manager & supposed to pay all his bill, fine when the builder payed first six months, took forever to get it of him, i ought to put the letter up that i sent that would make a few people laugh, i cant but the jist was just cause you are famous it doesnt mean you dont pay w/c.)

Matt, you and I need to compare notes. We priced this one up about 12 months ago.
'Ell of a place but the politics in getting it done far outweigh the efforts ;)
-
How you mean Neil?
-
Obvoiusly it's not best practice to compare notes on a site like this.
Send me an e-mail neilj96@ntlworld.com and let's see how we both got on ;D
-
I do the house of Roman Bednar the West Brom player. Really nice friendly bloke.

Not to sure why he gave it up , probley the pay as Im sure the BBC didnt pay the sort of money he was on with Audi , He's a top bloke , I think he own's the rights to the stigg name If I remember , he has a very good book out called F1 the hard way click - http://www.amazon.co.uk/Flat-Out-Broke-Formula-re-issue/dp/1844250180
He used to have a new Audi S8 every few months to rag round in .
Quote-
Perry McCarthy decided at the age of 18 that he wanted to reach the top in the world's most expensive sport. With no racing experience, no cash, and little going for him except a passion for speed, the exuberant Cockney shouldn't have stood a chance. He never gave up, however, and his relentless search for backing and recognition led the man "The Times" dubbed 'the world's unluckiest racing driver' to heroic, often hilarious and sometimes heartbreaking efforts to make it into Formula 1. This is his autobiography.
Some of the storys he told me , you had to feel for the guy , While Damion Hill and co was earning the big bucks , Perry was driving to the F1 meets in a mini metro as he put his house on the line and lost the lot !
Some say he was the fastest thing in F1 but only got a F1 drive a few times.
If you into the stig or F1 , the book is ace read and very funny.
I didnt get a mention in it :(

Jens Lehman.
got caught looking at his wifes a**e. shes a sort!
She went down the stairs, and you could see she wasn't wearing any drawers (plus the fact that there was 10 bras on the dryer and no knickers).
watched her go down the stairs, turned around and Jens was standing there with a wry smile on his face.
caught red handed and red faced.
he's moved now so don't mind saying.
Also do a so called english tennis player. has his windows done once a year or so. tight-wad-ski.
-
this thread got me thinking so I asked my son today if we clean windows for anyone famous.
His reply....
no
-
and now I feel really left out!
-
Currently 3 years into a contract with a formula 1 racing champion, that would be his working establishment not the house that Matt knows about.
Also work for a former equestrian Olympic gold medalist.
And the former Chief Executive of Barratt Homes - boy did he get out just at the right time ;D

Roland rat the mega star. He spends most of his time eating cheese and getting drunk by the pool. :D
Dirty little toad has a new woman every time I go there :o

i used to do 3 clangers who reckomended me to the soup dragon but couldnt make out a word he was saying.
paddingtons windows were murder..all sticky fingure marks. Couldn't get Mr Benn to pay as each time I called a different fella answered the door. One week it was a cowboy the next an Indian. An Aussie rock band booked me but could only find this silly school kid at home. Tich was Quackers and the others were stuck up their own back sides. If Stan reckons they were famous its for the length of their prison sentences up fair view and wall Bank ;D But Widnes Full back Mick Burk did try to sell us some double glazing. he left with a sale and 5 pints of our home brew
