Evening all :)

me and the wife enjoyed the show, bit smaller than expected but compact.  Every exhibitor very helpful great to meet Andrew Mc cann and the lads from pure freedom thanks for the free gift, also window cleaning warehouse sorted me a good deal on a pole and a free t-shirt.  Free gifts from Unger, good to meet Jeff Brimble, Peter Fogwill and his wife his new pole is very interesting.  Andrews water treatment, Dave st ives and his wife, Gaz h2o and the lurcker, ;D the facelift lads and everyone else we met all so friendly a great day. 8)
Saw John Garnet and Ian Lancasters vans in the carpark buy never saw them in the show, it was a bit strange without Terry on the comp stand also missed Emily where did those 2 get to? :-\ :-X ;)

All in all an enjoyable day

regards

Brett.

I went for a couple of hours. Got a heavy duty saftey cone for £12.00 from w,cleaning warehouse and w/c pouch.

I tried a 24' carbonfibre facelift pole and was impressed by its rigidty and weight but ouuch the PRICE.

Wanted to meet some forum memmbers but I dont know what anyone looks like.

Anyone else got any thoughts on the show, does anyone know who won the fastest window cleaning comp? I know David Morris entered but didnt stay to watch.

I thought the show was good. It's much more aimed only at the window cleaner than the bigger ones. David didnt win but I cant remember who did. I watched the ladies comp and David's lady seemed to me to bust the record wide open by a good few seconds but I think politics were obvious in the decisions made.

Fed vs APWC I think  ;)

The only down side to the venue was the lack of windows to get hands on feel of poles but I still ended up parting with a good few quid on a new one from Pure Freedom.

I would like to have gone but it would have eaten up two days which were both very busy work days for me in the end.

Hi John sorry to have missed you.

If you are interested I will be in Fleetwood a week on Saturday for a wedding,  we could maybe meet up if we both have time?  Were you at the dinner dance in the evening?
