I've just ran the lad to school, saw a competitors worker cleaning a house in a torrential downpour I know I wouldn't be happy if he'd just clean my windows.

I'm just across town from you daz and was able to work right through it on a commercial job from 6-1. Same again until Sunday then back on domestics Monday.

Hope it passes for next week though.

Windy in east anglia but dry all week apart from rain thursday, but gotta work even if it does.
WE CLEAN BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT WITH WATER FED POLE WHEN WORKING AT HEIGHT.

Managed 10am-12noon then had to write the day off.its simply too windy to do a proper job with wfp.tomorrow I've wrote off as well.very strong wind and heavy rain forecast.hopefully Friday will be workable but I'm not getting my hopes up!

Fed up with the weather this week! >:(
