He said: "Just found my side gate open wide. Can I exclude you and look for alternatives?"
Normally go through his garage if he is home but every now and then through the side gate. Thing is the padlock is always open (he doesn't unlock it each time). So anyone could gain access if they wanted to. Every time I go through there I close it but must have forgot this time.
Here's the classic. I've been cleaning his windows for 10 years without any problems!
Not sure whether to save it or just say yes you can cancel thanks for your past business. Only thing in his favour is that it is my mistake but the pettiness of it makes me think stick it mate.
Price is good for the time it takes.
Ironically his neighbour came up to me on the day of the clean and I got him for £40 regular, this customer is £33.
Thoughts?
"Hi customer, I hope you and your family are keeping well.
Are you asking my permission to cancel my services because you believe I left your always unlocked gate open once in ten years?
Please advise as soon as reasonably practicable if so as I have a small waiting list of customers that I can select from to take your place.
With best wishes"
Really? 🤔
No. The waiting list for my service is long.
They wait until you tell them they're allowed on your round? Ok.
And whoosh ...

Also, I wouldn’t want it too quick in case it snags on something. Or they can soon whip up causing damage or injury, especially with a rectus 21 or similar on the end.

Does anybody else have one of these reels ? Mine is one of the first run built and i only paid £600 for it ........but its underpowered and a bit slow . I notice it has a 24v motor , anybody have a newer version thats been updated ? wondering if the newer ones have a different motor.
