Wet in North Wales / Chester today but just carried on  :)

Just keep going till someone says no then onto next house ... never happens though but if it did not bothered as still plenty to go at ..... better to earn 95% of days wages as opposed to nowt sitting at home .

Fantastic start to the year.

Worked all my normal working days in mild dry weather - so 2nd/3rd plus 7th/8th and we are about one third the way through our work. Drizzle came in about 3pm today so took an hour off and am set up for a long and forecast dry day tomoz!

The weather could not be better for window cleaning.
It's a game of three halves!

Made it to 5pm ok. Started drizzling / raining in Lyme Regis about 2pm. Extremely warm though, about 12C and the barometer's well up too.

Came on to rain about 2ish (North Wales) but had got through most of our work anyway. Compared to the last couple of years I think we're off to a great January start.

Since returning to work last Wednesday, we have worked 6 flat out days, 8 hours every day. Today it light drizzled for a good 10 mins but that has been it.

Couldnt have asked for a better start to the year, and like EandM said, its been quite warm down this end.
