Thank you it went very well but I did not break my record!I was faster then NEC by some 30 seconds,but I got to many penalty points to break the record!heres to next time in april at the Fed do! Posted by Rick (Rick), 23 February 2004
hmmm. i live in Rochdale and work in Ashton. it would've been nice to see it.
about these "records"? excuse me, but what exactly do you have to do to break them? and how is the competition performed? man, i'd prolly whip all your asses at this game. i'm the fastest window cleaner in Greater Manchester. anyone who thinks otherwise is just plain wrong.
nah, i'm just joking really. but i like to think i could handle the pressure of a window cleaning competition (which is just hilarious!).......like, why?Posted by Silly_Philly (Philip Hanson [Silly Philly]), 24 February 2004

Well, it's time to put your squeegee where your mouth is! The Fed Show is on 24th April, and there will be an official Guinness World Record rep to oversee our very own competition.
You can see how you fair against the legendary Terry "Turbo" Burrows. (I'm afraid it sounds like you've thrown down a gauntlet now! and Terry's not one to walk away from a challenge like that)
He doesn't have that little "S" next to his name for nothing!
Its in Leicestershire, details are on the Fed website
