Title: Did these today
Post by: Gleaming windows on August 20, 2009, 06:11:11 pm

I was asked to go along by a builder who I do a bit of work for (office and occasional site job) to do these places today.

It was meant to be a general clean, no stickers, no glue, no mastic; although Id been along before to do one plot in the past this time they wanted all 5 done.

Anyway heres the pics, theres 5 plots, sure you can work out from the various images what would have been invloved.

What would you guys have gone in at? Remember though, all the plots are essentially the same, the pics reflect the amount of windows in general, so the windows shown arent all windows on site. Sure you understand what Im saying. Use your nouse  ;)

Its basically a one-off, I wouldnt want them anyway, its a 55 mile round trip and the door on the 1st floor leaks on all of them when you rinse  ;D

hi dave in my first place we had a shared drive with 12 people

when the drive needed resurfacing it was me who organized a firm to do it

everyone agreed to pay their share ,

when i went to collect money  off neighbours  3 people would not pay and gave me their

pathetic excuses

had to go round all the paying ones asking to pay the shisters share

was not a pleasant experience :'( ::)

the street was never the same after that

when we moved it was to a place that has its own drive :)
