It's been pretty dire here so far in Brighton

Driving rain and high winds. It's been a boring day so far.

I had written the day off but things looked up later.  I went out about 1.30/2.00ish.  It doesn't sound much but it was worth earning.  When I know it's going to be a very short day, I can up the pace a lot.

Did a first clean for one of my existing customers (this was his house, I clean his shop windows); nice big detached house. Was sunny when I started, but then the wind got up, bringing some hail and snow with it.

While doing it, the lady next door asked me for a price (same sized house), and asked if I could come back next week, then monthly thereafter. She had a friend with her who lives nearby, so will be getting a call from her soon as well.

Got nothing else done today, as the weather went from bad to worse, but I'm happy enough.
