Someone must have switched the Xmas lights on a 'customer central' I was supposed to finish early to take my daughter to the dentists when she had finished school today but I was running an hour and a half late because of damn phone calls mrs working so grand parents had to take her instead (watch out Simon this is what you'll be used for)

Hate rugs this time of year mate, try to quote them high so the customer goes elsewhere unless they are part of another job.
Too much hassle especially the drying times on the shag pile wool etc.

I've hit a "Gold Rush" in a remote part of Cornwall with very high end clients, where I've done one job and the referrals have spread like wild fire. The journey's a bit of a pain but well worth it.... Long may it last.... :)

It's certainly my busiest November yet with next week being mainly an oven cleaning week.... Deep Joy ;D

Things are looking good here too.

Can't take any more jobs this week and we have over a grands worth of work booked in for December already. Niiiiiice! I've also quoted on £1800 of commercial work over the past week, so Christmas is looking good. Oh and we have added a new office cleaning client too that is worth over a grand a month and it starts next week.

Happy days at Hydro Kleen (Scotland)  8)
