Paul, I think the 28th is a Bank Holiday (Public Holiday?), so it might be best avoiding residential work on that day.

I see what you mean Tosh but as it's a lieu day rather than a "proper" boxing day, I will work and just not start before 10 in case they are having a lie-in.  I have a cafe to clean first thing anyway so that will occupy most of the time up till about 9.30.  See.  the cafe is open.  They still want their regular service (in and out).  I did a fair bit of Xmas Eve too.  Some people were surprised to see me but they were, without exception, pleased that I made the effort even with ice still around .

I'm inclined to agree with you that he's just having a wind-up  .
Ironically, he speaks of getting a GF.  Ironic because the debt incurred when I had a particular GF is part of the reason I don't take much time off.
I must get a life
I must get a life
I must get a life....

Why have a pop at Stephen s? i think he is right, i would be very angry if a window cleaner turned up to clean over the xmas holiday.Just because he has an opinion people jump on it. Fair play to him, run him off he was properly a burglar at work at that time of year.

O great another moron, who thinks that every window cleaner is a crook and shouldn't be trusted.
