What man this weather is doing my Napper in.

10 mins rain, 10 mins sun, 10 mins Hail, 10 mins sun, 10 mins Rain, 10 mins Sun, 10 Mins Hail, 10 Mins Sun.... get the drift?

It's been like this here for 2 days already and its so irritating, If I get behind by a day I just cant catch up until the time around, Loosing a God Damn Fortune at the minute.

Sunny Whitley Bay (Dont Make Me Laugh) >:(

Sunny Whitley Bay (Dont Make Me Laugh) >:(

I love Whitely Bay; though I'm a Shield's lad myself (living in South East Wales).

It's quite a posh area by Geordie standards, lots of big sea-front houses along the Golden Mile; but the last time I was there, just driving into Whitley Bay I saw - honest - three window cleaners working and another window cleaners van in the traffic.

The area looked swamped with window cleaners.

Tosh,

Your right there is a lot of Window Cleaners in the area, but Im only one of two who are waterfed pole.

Yes your also right Whitley Bay is a vary affluent area they have crap piles of money thats why I wont get out of the van for less than £10. Most of my new customers come from word of mouth because the old ladder guys just cant match the results or get to the hard to reach windows like waterfed pole. A lot of the houses I do are 3 storeys. My van is full wrap around and sticks out a mile, I never jeopardise quality, and If I miss a customer I drop a note through the door appologising for the weather. I have been window cleaning for 3 years now and the ladder guys are finding it hard because custys In Whitley are becoming aware that water fed pole is a lot better. Now any ladder guys reading this please dont start a slanging match that was not my intention, im just telling the truth.
