Each of us needs a slave.  I usually have a woman on hand for this kind of work.

its always good to have a finger in another pie!

After that winter we had, i thought i needed to do something about another income stream, so ive also got into pest control.

Im loving it, another recession proof biz. Not for the tight wads tho, you gotta spend a lot on advertising if you want to earn at it!!!

I have a feeling that my last post was not in the correct context.

Get your ladders out for this then....


3 storey -  30mins all done with the gutter vac

Make an 'S' shape hook and hang your bucket on a rung of the ladder.  The more you fill it, the better it gets at stabilising the ladder too.

ive had to go round one of my customers today wo had a 'company' round lastweek to do her gutters, 3 of them were there for an hour and a half, sprayed it all down with bleach his ladder only reached the sills so he was standing on the top rung and then hosed it all off, messed up all the windows and has noe killed a load of her plants and messed up all of his painted shelves and stuff in the garden.
We had to go and rinse off all their work as it was still filthy and then do all the windows.
They charged £150.............
Im not scared of heights, just falling from them.
