Raising awareness of WFP
« on: April 28, 2008, 01:09:30 pm »
I am considering writing to the BBC to ask them show a short clip of a wc using a pole system to clean windows on Albert Square. As long as I have watched Eastenders, Ian Beale and co have never had their windows washed (they must be rotten). All I would ask for is a 5 second or so back ground clip of someone using a system. I think this would be enough to get all those people who have never heard of wfp thinking about getting their high level windows cleaned. I would promote it from the safety aspect as there are far too many ladder accidents within the business etc

Am I just having a nutty moment or do you think it sounds reasonable? :-\

I think it's a great idea! Especially if they could get Pat Butcher to say: " 'ere look at that geezer wiv 'is long rock, I'm going down the frog to the fish to get some bees for me sky and see if 'e'll do my windas" ;D

He was, but he used to muck in with stan when it got 'really busy'!
Anyway, back on topic. What do you think to the idea?

Second thoughts, I actually think it is a bad idea as it is only going to encourage more people into window cleaning which will result in less work for us all and lower prices!!!  :(
Sorry to put a dampner on your idea!! Bring back Eddie and Stan though that would be good!!!!!!! ;D

I think its a good idea. I think we should poll this topic. If the poll got good results we should get a petition together and send it in!

Watching Eastenders is enough to start anyone on anti-depressant tablets. It must be the most depressive soap EVER. I'd rather watch the test card than watch that boring twoddle IMO.

Fair comment Wayne, but there are plenty of people with dirty windows that do watch it.

I think this forum is getting quieter in general, probably the result of people getting fed up with having their posts/threads locked or deleted everytime it starts to get interesting!!!! I hope this forum dosn't become a desolate ghost town like the once brilliant and lively Cleaning Pros has now become!!!! ???
