My nose would bleed if I did that, but maybe I could do that with a van mount and lighter poles.

That's what I'm hoping.

What's your normal working method?  If you used big triple ladders all day, I'd be really impressed!  ;D

Nobody has to do it if the dont want to H2ose.

I know of a few who havent bothered to do any form of work at all since they left school.

Theyre out of the rat race too. In fact they were never in it. :) :)

Yep, each to their own Dean :). Ive always worked for someone else (and extremely long hours too). Since starting out on my own in this business, Ive always tried to earn more and work less. And so far its working :). Not knocking you guys that want to work longer hours, all I was saying is its not for me anymore
