you mention 20 quid for the smaller unit, for me thats too cheap, though i guess as its every 2 weeks, they will not get that dirty, the only concearn i would have is they have said every 2 weeks, this will get stretched to monthly, then 6 weeks, as time sget harder for them, they will cut down on the visits you make, so price it well

ps my main concern with this job would be to get your cash,I,d imagine in that line of business things would be very slow at the moment.

cheers povey.
