Post by: tompoole on January 13, 2010, 08:22:47 am
hehehehe. we got another 1nch at least, I got out yeaterday and managed almost full day and thought I would be cracking on with it today, but, looks like no window cleaning today.
 I survived yesterday even with the hiose on icy ground and snow, was quite supprised really i thought it would freeze. Temp set to be 4 deg tomorrow so hope to do it all again. just read teletext and it has warned of more snow from mon, doesn,t state where so lets hope its Austria :)

Hi Robin
When I worked in the print I loved the snow, would be the only one that got to work so got plenty of overtime getting sick of it now. I went out to hethe, buckingham and gradborough yesterdy, in hethe the roads were 2/3 inches of compact snow and ice, got a few strange looks .
thank god for my landrover.
 How long have you been windowcleaning? though you did driveways> Guess your doing both.

thats me bright red landy, only 3 in that colour made. I will track you down and annoy you.
I only started window cleaning while looking for a job in 2007 after being made redundant , I soon realised I could make almost as much window cleaning as i did in the print, but have shed loads more free time.
speak soon

Still snowing here in Brum, roads are getting worse too. I thought we were coming out of it yesterday, but you know what thought did.
I've had my hose reel and di inside house for a week now. Would liked to have put Merlin in too but no room.
Hope you get your van sorted anyway Robin.
Kev.
