about WFP systems being banned!!
http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/
click listen top right corner.

I think this is going to cause many arguments, the person speaking about the ban to the window cleaner clearly does not have a clue about our trade or about window cleaning in any form, the comment about we will understand  ??? ??? ???

Andrew lee from cumbria (wfp)  and 2 other w/c both named Paul from Devon, one a wfp and one a ladder user.

First Paul...... I use 300 ltrs per day
Second Paul..... I use 2 buckets a day.

Second Paul with viney?  The first paul was saying he uses 1000 gallons a day  ::) this wasn't what I heared, I heared the first paul say, he uses 300ltrs a day and there are some guy's out there who use 1000ltrs a day.

Theres a big difference between ltrs and gallons guy's.

It also sounded to me, that the water company's don't want to know or care about us w/c, along with jeremy vine and the water company's, they were saying we go along and connect to a hose pipe? ::)

I just wish these people would get there facts right, No compensation unlike the British farmer, the water company say we have to make our own minds up, go back to the ladder or go on the dole.

that is not what the water companies are saying I have just emailed them and see what they say, I think every one should email the show and get them to say sry and state that it is litres and not gallons.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/vine/contact.shtml#form

email them  ;)
hopefully they will clear that up, I guess they will not though  >:(

this is what I emailed them:
Dear Jeremy,

I was listening to your show about window cleaners that use water fed poles, you misheard the person that said he was using 300 litres a day for a full days work and you then said gallons this is untrue and unfair, please if possible could you clear that up on the show, and the comments that some make about water fed window cleaning leaving streaks etc is down to the person using the pole I myself use both Water fed pole and traditional methods and all of my customers are happy with water fed pole as the water drys spotless, it is down to people that do not know how to use the pole that leave a mess on windows. Professional window cleaners do not leave streaks.

what a joker that Jeremy is! he had an underlining down in his voice that was very negative towards us.

at one point he said, you can either use 1000 litres of water or go up a ladder with a bit more risk, what would you do?

der...i like my legs where they are thats why i use a WFP system.

that really narked me!!
