I will be fitting roof bars, tidying the van and maybe fitting a dog bed. If thr rain stops I will do a couple.
if it is dirty it is fair game

yep day off for me as well.i would go out in it but its forecast heavy rain by dinnertime.ive got 11 accounts to clean scheduled in for today.these are top end jobs so ill leave them until tomorrow.i think a few saturdays are on the cards to get through my work in the run up to xmas!

the rest of the weeks  forecast will be just about workable methinks.i hate doing a bit here and there and half days due to weather but thats what ill be doing if i have to.just not today!! ;) ;D ;D

its VERY windy here at the moment!i find wfp can end up  doing a crap job when its like this!its a nightmare to rinse properly and having such a light pole and brush i have trouble controlling it!! ;D ;D
price higher/work harder!

dont mind working in wind or rain but not the 2 together

Cleaned one million small pieces of moss off a dorma bungalow roof and then did the gutters. 20ft pole to the top with wind determined to teach me a lesson I wouldn't forget. Got through it but feel like my arms have been through a blender.

I've a couple of houses to do this morning. We've heavy rain on the way so I've rescheduled the gutter clear and clean.

Wish the vac and genny were water resistant >:(

Often use my vac and gen in the rain - never a problem so far but you might read about me on the news one day  :). I can't afford to stop because it's raining. When I started bin cleaning I asked the guy who sold me the van "Do you keep cleaning when it rains?"

His reply was "Do your kids stop eating when it rains?"  ;D
