A total of 37 houses going up with just one occupied so far. I put a leaflet through a couple of weeks ago and heard nowt. As I was passing on my way home, I thought I'd knock the door if a car was on the drive and there was. Tuffers charm turned on, ding dong, "Oh hi, I don't know if you have sorted a window cleaner out yet, but can I leave my leaflet with you?" Do you use the pole or go up a ladder, she asks. "I use the pole." Oh I don't like the pole, as it will leave my rendering wet, she says. Me starting to think nutter alert. "If I did the windows off a ladder, I would be leaving holes in your flower beds, as I wouldn't be able to reach the windows over the porch front on." Ok, she says have a look round and tell me how much, I have already had a window cleaner quote but didn't like his approach towards me and he quoted £**. I look round and think, yeah he's about right with his price. I just moved from London and was paying £10 she says, yes you heard right £10! I give her my price which is the same as the other window cleaner and I will clean them this week WFP. I have one of my customers moving onto the estate this month too, so I may be in a position to make the place all mine. Not too bothered about the woman who has taken me on (I will put up with her until my mission is complete) but she is the very first house in the road and it's a cul-de-sac. First house and be seen cleaning by all who pass /emoticons/wink.png
