think of it like this, for a lot on here they made the decision to go over to wfp, now that takes guts and is a worry in itself, now all you need to do is train the mind that working in the rain is ok as well, and if you are trad just train the mind and carry more scrims, I did two large bungalows this morning trad in the rain and was thanked and told I was doing a smashing job, then for the rest of the day I was wfp mostly in the rain and no one batted an eyelid, I was absolutely soaked when I got home, but with an extra customer on my books. sure you may get the odd one that doesn't like it but that is true about going wfp.

also year or so ago I was late to a job due to weather and a customer told me you should have just came and don't try to guess what I am thinking

Andy,
And my daughters quad bike circle to look at. This place is great for some things and not so good for others.
I'm the only house in my village with broadband.

I won't be out at 1 m8. Anglesey gets very strange weather.
My forecast is rain till at least Sunday.
Think yourself lucky. I live in the middle of the country miles from the coast. You may get a few wet days but hey, why not go fishing? I would.

Yep, if you can't work find something else to do.

Now where did I put that fishing rod.. ;)

Thanks Kate1! I have to admit I copied the idea, but wrote my own guarantee. never had a call, yet!
Rain Guarantee
English weather is unpredictable but our customers dont like unpredictable service.
In order to make sure that we always call as regulary as possible we will work in the rain.
It is dust and pollen etc. which make your windows dirty, not the rain.
All our work is guaranteed, should you not be happy with your clean call us within 24 hrs for a free re-clean.
Many thanks
Chris.

is that pole or trad?

The van is 10 months old, the wrap is 2 months old. Might need to sell and buy a cheaper van to bring in cash.

Chopsie,
I love it too, but a nice van on your drive doesn't pay the bills.
