I have not seen one but if there were any I thinks so many companys would not buy the soft ware they have and just use the free one. Sorry I cant help.

on of the first things i thought of when i started out was this. if you could upload it to a sat nav everyday, or even better, WCP could pre-programme the most economical route.

don't know how easy it would be, i am guessing not quite so easy, or else someone would have developed it already. think of the number of applications!

And there are other criteria, i can do that job early but not that one; i have preagreed to be at that one for exactly two o'clock.
But......I  would love to chuck twenty postcodes in and get a jigged round order out.

When i was a slip of a boy on here and enthusing like mad about george being the best fifty quid i ever spent and the best wc programme ever, a window cleaning grandee took me to task.He ran a very exclusive business, he had multiple vans, employees, and brain twisting problems to crack every morning before his Arthur Mullard type leading hands hit the road.
The giste was that i was plum and the £1500 CEO was the dogs.

Funny that the same guy is now on the WCP website endorseing it(wcp that is) as brilliant.If anyone knows, why did he stop with CEO?
