I said ten til four like the other guy and at four ...the end....he was quite good at cutting that lawn actually which means..yep I had to wait quite a while....I m gonna offer the job to my dad and brothers...I can say...HE AINT SOFT LIKE ME....

 
It's not a matter of being soft cnc but not be taken for a ride unless you like sit on mowers:D

 
now come on someone...there is a time countdown till next monday...some one must want it ...how about some of our friends from abroad..?

of course..they got a parrot....and its very friendly..

 
I just told a prospective custy to shove it where the sun don't shine

"Do you do this village??"

It is local so "what's the address I'll look on google maps to give a rough price"

"This is the address and we have a conservatory "

"To do that with conny 15 quid unless it a 1 off which will be more"

"How much more?"

"30 quid"

"Cool but how you gonna do the roof as you can't walk on it?"

Well you give me an extra 20 and that is how i can do the roof"

"WHAT"

"Shove it then"

 
So if that was a regular clean they would want a 3 bed with big conservatory plus roof doing for 15 quid a month..

Bell ends

 
Tell them, you'll get an uninsured guy who's just claimed his dole to go round by foot when he feels like it with a smashed up old squeegee and a borrowed bucket to do it for that price

 
Just be honest, that's how I handle things like that, just say look I am really sorry but I massively undercharged you last time, I completely underestimated the scale of the job, it will be XXX if you want it doing this time.

 
Then give em my rough quote so you will never hear from your barter friends ever again

£100 for the day? You can have my junior man for that for 3 hours!

That's why they got a Lambo on the drive and a pool, cause they don't give the money to you!

We don't do any such thing as a 'rough quote'.

They tell you 'it's only 4 windows' turns out they're 20 ft high and all georgian and leaded to boot!

I will only quote after seeing the job and the price is always the price, no haggling!

Just tell them you aren't so hard up you need their money, then they start wanting to pay you more! Usually works for us!

You could always just turn up with UKIP rosettes all over the van and watch Jeeves escort you off the premises with a shot gun!

 
er...I aint going...

now if it was normal glass I may be tempted but heavy leadeds..there is only one way to clean those today..

and its been six months...wtf...

I did use to do loads of leadeds with my scrim just the right dampness but too old now.../emoticons/biggrin.png

yeh grandad with his hat on his lawnmower staring at me...I wont forget that for a while.../emoticons/biggrin.png

must get a dash cam....one you can move around a bit...
