Wind made me give up

Extremely strong gusts here in manchester so took the executive decision after doing my shops to call it a day. I dont have the patience to sit in the van for 2 hours waiting for it to stop. I know i'm being a bit weak but better safe than sorry etc

Had a go earlier but with the wind around the 40mph mark rinsing the glass (wfp) was almost impossible. Also, being on the coast means that there's a lot of salt in the air.
The wind has dropped a bit and really I should go back out but I'm lazy sometimes.
When I was trad, I wouldn't have even got out of bed on days like this.

Looked too bad this morning so I waited til afternoon to see if wind died down. Went out about 2.00pm and cleaned 3 houses but wind still too strong - so I warned all 3 custies that wind not ideal to clean in and ring if any problems - called it a day. I don't mind cleaning in the wind and rain but it seems pointless if the wind means you may have to clean them all again the next day.
Spent the afternoon updating accounts so no time wasted really.
Hopefully better tomorrow.
Cheers, Tom

i worked all day in manchester.a bit windy and wet this morning.dried up this afternoon.conny roof clean then onto normal domestic window cleaning.good earning day and over half my customers paid me today!
only a day and half of work left this week then 10 days off!!
im a few days early with my round.bang up to date!
WFP has made a massive difference when working in bad weather and the amount of work i can get through in a day.
im really in the zone!im like a well oiled machine!i need a break though so off to london next week with new girlfriend.staying at a 5 star hotel for the first night then staying with my brother!bring it on!!
best wishes to you all
