Great thread this, read many interesting replies.

Ross - I think you should name and shame, your letting someone on this forum spout out rubbish and falsehoods to the detriment of the rest of us and this forum.

As it stands your claim is as wild, and most likely false as your supposed chap who uses his car and barrels, it also reflects badly on the likes of mick Kent who are also in that area.

Do the right thing Ross, tell us, or forever be known as a windup merchant

To be honest guys its easy to suss out most of the braggers on here you just need to read their
back posts.
Put it this way there's one guy on here who's been cleaning windows and making a fortune for many years, going
by his age he must have started his business at the ripe old age of 10.

This is true, but it's nice to have a bona fide "outing" which may make others think twice about hyping everything up

No one will suspect for a second that it was me, but for your information I used to have work in Darenth until I moved to Ireland.

I am not bothered who it is, as I don't get carried away by outlandish claims and try to match or beat them. Isn't it better simply to concentrate on our own businesses and let the braggers get on with theirs?

Also, you'd need to charge £50 for the fronts, just to pay for the diesel...

Was there not a "pole king" on here but think he changed his username? Thought he was down that neck of the woods.

Sorry in advance if I'm wrong. Don't shoot me.  ;D

Darren, the point I was making has nothing to do with mud slinging or naming and shaming. I was making the point that some, and notice the word 'some', who post on here make out they're something they're not and post according to those delusions.

If you want to think of what I posted as a lie, then obviously that is your choice and sorry, but being portrayed as a wind up merchant for eternity? I couldn't care less.

I also don't understand how what I posted reflects badly on Mick Kent and others who work around that area.

Also, for the second time, it isn't Mick Kent.

Ok.

It was Mick Kent.

He was driving a Reliant Robin and not only was it over loaded, he had several barrels with wheels on and was towing them behind in a long line.

I never realised he was 3ft 2ins tall though.

Yea it needed it, was getting rusty from all the pure leaking out of the barrels where my rear suspension had gone from overloading so filled most of the rust, uprated the springs and also sprayed it a more rusty colour so wouldnt look out of place when more rust bites through.
Still i can clean £500 a day in it with 6 barrels so does me for now untill i can afford something a bit better like a focus or even volvo estate. Who knows what the future will bring.

£500 a day, what are you? Lazy? I do that before lunch.

I'm glad to see you've no longer got the barrels hanging off the side of the car as well.

A Volvo Estate - they're easy to buy pre rusted through so you won't have any problems there.

I mean the area i live in aint to bad i clean a few big big houses and i charge about 140 pounds witch i think is good and realistic price for
a day and they grumble at that lol i would never get any work if i charged more than that  i guess i just dont like the fact of not getting a job so i go cheap but i think thats quite alot of money 140 and i am happy with that of course if i could earn 300 a day that would be very good but im just not getting anywere near that dont no how some of u get that as a day rate .

Is £140 for the outsides only and does it really take you all day?  Could you do the insides as well in the same day if so then that is your £300+ a day as you would normally charge more for the insides compared to the outs.  In my experience BIG house owners want the insides done.
