Many a window will open inwards and can not be closed from outside. Clean them as they are and expect big trouble from the owners. These just have to be left till next time.

A superlite is robust enough to 'tap' a window shut.  Don't push, just 'tap' it a few times and all but the stiffest window will close.  And some windows are fine to clean while they're open.

as Tosh said. It amazes me how many people leave open windows.Even ones above flat roofs.  Had one the other day where I knocked the back door handle as I was cleaning the door and the back door was unlocked. No sense some people

To make a point I like to poke the brush through the window, and aim the jets of water to initial my name on the wall !
