Heavy rain in Kent a.m - worked through it with all customer's approvals.  My customers know my work is guaranteed and that I will come back if job not satifactory.  Don't mind getting wet in the summer.

Had one mighty gust of wind and heard stuff flying everywhere - it had also picked up the rain and it was like buckets being emptied - all over in seconds but caused a bit of 'excitement'  ;D

I'm writing today off; but I had a good Mon to Wed, so I'm not overly bothered.  I'll catch up next week.

I work in light rain/showers/looking like rain or a monsson and tell all customers this.  If they are not happy with any of the windows I will go back and reclean.  As yet no one has took the pee.  First for everything I suppose./

Totally torrential rain at 3am here this morning.  Car alarms going off etc.  Madness, stair rods type rain.
