Hi Daz
Do you think it's that bad? I worked all Monday and most of yesterday between showers. Later start today cos of the rain but aim to get out by 0930.
I am worried about the wind today, seems to have picked up from yesterday. I know it can make the windows dirtier than before you cleaned them if its really blowing. {I cover south Manchester areas}.

Worked all day Monday, Tuesday and just got in today.

I ended up having a good day today, dodging the worst of the showers. Worked steadily, got through most of the work and also got two new customers. One while I was finishing a house in the peeing rain. she came over and said she had been looking for a cleaner for ages.
Sometimes I think we worry to much about cleaning in the rain.

It's looking OK for the Midlands. North and West especially Scotland are really going to cop it.
