Cleaned windows first in 1959 when I worked for a guy for 6 months,
Went back to it 15 years ago, 3 and a half years WFP.
I'm 67 and can't retire as my Mrs is expecting in 6 weeks time.

Dai I take it you're Welsh? You boyos believe in living life to the full, don't you?  Can I be rude and ask how old your Mrs is? :o :o :o

My Mrs is a lovely 33 year old Indonesian, The nicest person I ever met.
Her cooking is to die for, and I've put on 2 stone in the 6 years we have been married.
Only 4ft 10 ins tall, and looks like humpty dumpty at the moment.

Started when I left the Army in 1973 full time until a drunken customer, female came up to me in the pub and said jokingly 'can I pay in kind again this month? ' unfortunately my wife at the time didnt see it as a joke and I was forced to find another job. Worst thing was I'd only cleaned her windows.
Cleaned windows part time until last April when went full time, with another partner! Loving every minute of it, wish i'd done it ages ago, worked through the snow, nothing compared to 20yrs as a sales rep.
