Title: More Snow
Post by: Jonathan Spencer on February 21, 2010, 08:09:36 am
Woke up this morning to a couple of inches on the snow.  The forcast is snow for all week.  Looks like my plans are up in smoke.  ???

I keep racking my brain of things to do, just to bring a few quid in while the weather is like this.

I can't think of a plan B either.

At least with rain when it stops it goes.  NOt like the snow which stays there.

I do not think it will be worth leafletting in this weather either.

on a positive note though, the snow does make an awful mess of the windows, so just think of all the people without a wc, who will soon want one!!! ;D

Hi Simon

I'm in South East too so not looking forward to the rain either.  However, I've needed to work through it recently (for financial reasons) and provided I have the right waterproofs on, I've found it ok.   No problems from customers either.  I don't make a big thing of but tell the customer that the rain will not affect WFP cleaning but if they are unhappy I will come and redo at no cost.  I've not had a call back yet.

In fact with first cleans I find the extra water quite useful as the dirt has been pre-softened.
