My vote goes to richy wilts with

"Im thinking of building a trad round"  ;D
Nothing wrong with trad,30% of my work is trad and is essential for insides etc.
I once seen a bloke wfp a shop front because he could'nt trad clean it,I thought to myself WTF!,
it would be alot quicker to mop and blade it and when I did ask him why he was'nt doing it trade he replied "I don't know how".
Nothing wrong with starting a trad round and thats how I started and is a skill that not every window cleaner has and can be just as quick on bungalows and shop fronts than it is wfp so I agree with richy wilts,whats so funny! ???
Good luck to the bloke.

thats true,there isnt.  But i think this was more directed as a  joke to richy, who seems to go from one manic idea of quitting/expanding/going back to trad/moving and selling up/expanding from one days posting to another!


And thats y we love the guy!!  :)

my reasons were that weve had many problems with our wfp systems with pumps on our ionic system constantly blowing etc i was looking for a cheap maintenance free way of building up my business locally where i could rely on to bring in a steady flow of cashflow on certain areas in my town i personally wouldnt bother to clean wfp with my prices, also its a way of expanding without having vehicles,systems van insurances to pay out for to get started

yes I can understand that, I did something similar on a very local scale and have left it trad ever since, it isn't much just a day that I don't use van, I get up and walk out the house with ladder and bucket, but handy enough if van is in garage etc

Maybe not quote of the year but this post is prime example of CIU, bickering starting within first few posts  ;D

Its just a JOKE guys, bit of a laff, try not to take things so seriously all the time.

Oh and when is the new button going to be fixed?
