Just no.

A quick let up in the madness before my son starts his exams on the Friday.

I did end up finishing a job the other Sunday afternoon though.

I'm getting strung along by the court system. I'm a witness and no one seems to be bothered to turn up so I waste half a day sitting in the room by myself  to get told we will call you. They don't, and send out another summons to appear means I need to play catch up with the windies on Monday.

Did one today and I just reached the back ones with my 35' pole so not to bothered if she complains. I do the 2 below so it will be a nice earner if its a goer. 3 cleans without moving much and no one complaining that I'm soaking the flat below.

How do you get behind with only 100 customers per month ?  That’s only 25 per week should easily be able to do that in one day surely

I didnt even realise there was another one ffs.

Had a week off hol 2nd week in april, then came back to a bank holiday, then had to have a day off week after to take van for m.o.t then got naff all done this week due to heat so looks like i`ll be working the dreaded friday, Now you are telling me i have to have another day off next monday. Never gonna get owt done  :D

I actually booked a pressure washing job in for next monday that ive been putting off not realising so i`ll just go do that anyway, i wouldnt do regular windows on a bank hol.

There's another one at the end of the month too Adam!😂👍

Normally I wouldn't work a bank hol but I'm going on holiday early Thursday morning. A full 14 days off then I'm working one day then another 4 days off for the late may bank holiday before I'm back to a regular work routine again so 18 days off with only one work day in between.

10 days in Lanzarote all inclusive
2 band rehearsals
1 gig for singers birthday
Scissor sisters gig with the missus

It's going to be a great month!

Why not have your holidays booked so it incorporates a bank holiday? That way you don't have to work it plus you'll be off anyway? And it saves you the £'s.

Your right but I do plenty of add-ons. I took on a 30m fence job aswell because its round the corner from where I stay. Its my windy customer and thought I will do it in 3 days. Anyway, its taking me over an hour digging one hole because of the concrete path and edging kerb. Can't take anymore work on this month and trying to reduce my window cleans to make them more compact. Starting earlier, planning my day out better and hopefully get through this month with some days off then I'll reduce my workload. I think I will count all my customers to get a correct total.
