Not sure how rare they are but back in February I saw a white squirrel in a garden.

And no, it wasnt covered in snow ;)

There are apparantly black squirrels in the woods to the back of Northwood Golf Course. One of my customers pointed one out to me which was interesting and then spent the next twenty minutes telling me about them. Which was not.

A naturist stood in his back garden in nothing except a Panama Hat and Sandals pruning his Roses.
It's a game of three halves!

When I was on the ladder doing an upstairs bedroom window the nipper of the house appeared asking me if I wanted to see his mums toys  :-\ :-\

Had some nutter in a porsche 911 doing 140 down a country lane the other day!  His passenger looked like he'd poo'ed his pants and was wearing what looked like a helmet.

Way back in my ' ladder days' an old lady sat on a potty by her bed, not nice. managed to get down before she saw me.
A nurse who was on nights having a daytime sleep in the nude on her bed, stayed up the ladder a bit longer!
Customer, female entertaining her boss in the bedroom at lunchtime, oops,

Did one of my mates monthly cleans to help him catch up with his work..

Started cleaning this very nice detached house and happened to notice close to the bedroom window loads of wigs hanging up on the dresser, just thought it was the lady of the house that owned them but as I came to collect the money it was a tranny  ;D

I nearly laughed..

In the early days I was out window cleaning with a mate of mine and we came across a teenage criminal who had my pants down one night whilst policing, so I arrested him and my mate sat in the back of our rascal van with him whilst we escorted him to the police station.

His words were "I can't believe that the police have got an undercover window cleaning vam".

Its a true story is that,

Dean.

Many years ago when I first started , was asked to quote for a house ,for front windows , by the lady of the house , any way got job and proceeded to clean.
Half way through a bloke came out  And and asked for a price for the backs , turned out they were divorced, and had split house in 2 , she lived at the front of the house, he lived at the back.  ???

I had a house where a divorced couple lived. He lived upstairs and she lived downstairs. They moved last year to another house, still "togeather but apart". The neighbour next door described it as a very strange arrangement. Obviously worked for them
