its very annoying at the moment cant seem to catch a break rains everyday even if its a small amount but you definatly need to crack on when the rain eases off, even if its 2-3 hours a day,

i did £24 this morning before it got heavy then thought sod it and went do an £85 fascia and gutter emptying job so lucky i had something to do other than windows,at least i cant be any worse this week as today was a complete washout

i got home my clothes were drenched even boxer shorts absolutley soaked  ;D

Things are going quite well im doing a new wordpress site at the moment plus my round is filling up with good quality customers.

My plan is to be in a position to buy a new bigger two man van setup by the end of next year.

im wasting my time today!overslept due to new polish neighbours banging about at 2am keeping me awake so started at 11am in drizzle.within 5 mins it was hammering it down.carried on then 15 mins in the van then came home! >:( >:(

its absolutely relentless torrential rain here in manchester!earned the princely sum of £10!! ;D ;D ;D

try again tomorrow! ;) ;D ;D ;D

KESSA dont be a soft lad!work a few saturdays or later in the day to catch up on the drier days!!

i usually just crack on if its just drizzle or the odd shower but this is a washout day!luckily its not often the weathers this wet although we have had a few more than usual over the last few months!!

im only just over a week behind so im not worrying!bills paid and a good few quid in the bank! ;) ;D ;D

from my experience of 18 years window cleaning it can get a bit frustrating when you cant get out and earn but dont let it spoil your day!!ENJOY YOUR TIME OFF!! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D


best wishes to you all

Hi Daz,

You don't want to enjoy your time off when you have 3 kids to feed! ;)

And a mortgage to pay , if I were single , I would be loaded.

Wow. It looks like Sunday might actually be sunny here. How about that then?

Apparently, or so my neighbour says, the sky will be blue as well. I think he might be exaggerating a bit.

Call it a conspiracy theory if you must - but this is all down to the Americans screwing with the jet stream with their massive HAARP radio wave transmitter. It fires incredibly strong radio waves into the upper atmosphere.   Funny how we should return to high pressure systems the week before the olympic games opening. They put a hold on transmissions so that weather will return to a high pressure system.

I thought yesterday I might, just might, actually work two days running without it raining. This morning I was getting very excited about this prospect and the day started of drab, dreary, overcast and windy but dry.

By midday I was getting really excited. By 2pm, I was almost ecstatic in anticipation. At about 2.30pm........... and it has only just stopped.
