Quote from: Vince Green on April 03, 2012, 09:23:01 pmI have seen a few real dingbats over the years but this man takes the cake. Working in a road I do regularly an old Vauxhall Astra comes down the road with a set of old B&Q ladders on the top. He stops and eyeballs me then drives on and parks round the corner although there was parking in the road.Then he comes back carrying the ladder, head down and no eye contact. He went to the house opposite stood the ladder against the house and pulls a dirty old grey cloth from his back pocket and proceed to rag all the windows. Just the middle, never touches the corners at all. Where he does do its the briefest wipe imaginable and its on to the next. He missed the one above the porch altogeather.The he knocks, customer comes out and pays him. Seems happy and hands him what looks like several coins. Loads up and is goneThis business never ceases to amaze me. What some people get away withVince dont put up with it.....a battered old vauxhall,b&q ladders and scrim.... Surely this is a genuine case for you to report him to the authorities.....did you get his number plate....
