watch out guys.... the drive cleaners are branching out into gutter cleaning

I seem to remember someone warning othe drive cleaners about the window cleaners moving into drive cleaning

its the gypsies im worried about!

all the window cleaners by me now do drives too anyway. the market is saturated. but i have been doing gutters for a while but dont like doing them. maybe if i get a vac generator it would be easier.
