Had phone call from a lady desperate to have her conny roof cleaned as she was having s house viewing later on,

I said I can do it but for £xxx as its last minute,

I assumed she'd say no, but she said 'yes please'

:eek:

I hadn't even seen it, so went high on price,

Anyway this was it:View attachment 5813

Bit awkward as I couldn't walk any further left, as there's a wall there.

Anyway, only took from 8-9:45, and I'm home!

Target hit, and now I can get my Christmas shopping done, it's a rainy day here, so this has worked out amzing!

Dream day! (Me likes short days)

 
Those flat glass roofs are a nightmare when they are dirty.
It was really green when i first started, used customers hose to rinse it off faster, before using the pure

 
Got one to do next week that's self cleaning glass (the irony). Do you guys ever risk virosol on these?
Shouldn't be a problem mate, glass is not the sort of material to be problematic with it..?

Yep I hated doing them, spent more time trying to rinse bits off the damn flat roof that never wanted to shift than anything else.

 
i usly wfp them then trad pole the water off gets off the shxxxit off with out using tones of water i think its quicker that way my self i did one of these last month

 
I have always been told don't use chems on self cleaning glass

Ruins it apparently

Was it a massive house then? Did she pay the £5 lol ?!

Some people need to be aware that people from all walks of life may be on here

I have friends of all persuasions and wouldn't appreciate it if any saw that type of comment

I actually lived with a mixed race girl for about 9 months before moving from london

I have a mixed race niece, my sisters white, biyfeiend at the time was black, I'm defo not racist,

Boar is from the generation that speak like that, it doesn't offend me, but a lot of people of boars generation use that term, I don't think they realise what there saying

 
I know where you are coming from. .was just saying that some may take offence
Yeah I agree,

Wasn't me that said it by the way lol!

Boar is a bit older (sorry boar) so probably didn't mean any harm, just habit for that generation perhaps..?

 
I know what you mean Jake. It's just abgenrational thing at times. No necessarily ment to hurt others but it can. My dad often talks like that, not to be nasty just doesn't see it in the way others do these days.

 
@Gav ! If you ******* keep adding **** *** **** to the ******* list you **** then I will ****** be ***** impressed **** cleaning so for **** sake stop ******* censoring as its ******* **** **** and really ****** me you ***** ****.

If you cant **** stop censoring **** *** you **** ****** then how do we ******* know what ********* sausages to buy?
