Just get her to watch some window cleaning videos on YouTube.

Informative, educational ones, so none of yours.

She’ll be sorted before you can say ‘Gardiners 14” with 4 fans and hot water please Sir!”

I don't like holidays though, never have. Two weeks off is my idea of hell. Especially in August.

what a miserable git you are mate.....what are you gonna do with all your money?is your ambition to be the richest corpse in the graveyard? ;D

I'm not miserable though, I enjoy working. If I'm forced to sit about a pool or, God forbid, a beach, then I'm miserable.

This year me and Mrs S drove round the north coast of Scotland. I enjoyed that but I was still glad to get back to work. Nowt wrong with that.

Wife wanted to come to work with me, so spent yesterday afternoon training and were out today.
 ::)roll  ::)roll

Not sure yet if I'm pleased with the idea or not
Didn’t you say in the past that your wife schools the kids at home?

Home schooling isn't the same as formal schooling 8:30 - 3pm Mon -, Fri!   
My littlest goes to a child minder n others go to their nannas for baking once a week etc. So she does get some free time haha 😂 I wouldn't like to be stuck with kids 24/7 either.   Going work is an holiday compared to looking after a young family day in day out!

She's done OK today, mostly watching me n methods and having the odd go. Then getting some inspiration from my customers gardens so in the end I've somehow got more work to do in our garden now 😂😂

My missus been working with me 4 years now and it works perfectly, so long as she knows who the boss is at work.
`
She's a proper grafter, just gets on with the work and never ever moans about anything . I do the windows she cant reach and she collects from the customers I dont like! She never feels ill, even when she is.


In todays day and age having a female worker has advantages, some old dears feel safer and some old men love to chat with her. I sometimes think I am invisible, which is great! The paranoid husband types dont mind the wife "having" a window cleaner if he knows his wife's there too.

She's the best worker I can think of and if I could have 10-20 I could give Lee Pryor a run for his money!

10 - 20 wives?

Feck that.
