i only started window cleaning when i moved to cheltenham i have taken over a small window round and i am furiously ringing round big estates and businesses to try to get a full time wage from it i was a hackney plate owner in york before this so i am used to earning 800 per week minus expenses about 550 per week hopefully i will be able to get the same wage without working weekends and nights taking drunken people home i am 50 years old but very fit for my age i have no problem with hard graft

I don't think your going to have to much trouble mate,  you have the right way of thinking and I'm sure it wont be too long before you build your round to where you want it.
