Sky News - Window Cleaners
« on: May 24, 2004, 07:42:03 pm »
There is going to be an article on window cleaners on Sky News tonight.

I dont know what time, but if you have Sky you might watch it for us and see what its like.  (I dont have Sky)

Hey Phil, it's just been shown.

Nice to put a face to the name, Craig was in there too.  Who approached who for the interview?

(BTW I think you had a bit too much Fairy in your bucket ;D)

Ha yes they wanted me to put a load of fairy in so that it was nice and bubbly.  Otherwise it wouldnt show on camera he said.

Tell me honestly, did it come across cheesey?  I havent seen it as we don't have sky.  Darned George Formby in the background - annoyed about that!

That girl in the red top is my wife, thats her doing the windows of our house.

Martin Lowe of Sky news called me this morning.  If I'd had more notice I might have had a chance to cut back those flippin bushes in the front garden!

No, good luck to you, ......well the George Formby did, but that's the media's idea of what the public relate to, like 'you missed a bit'.

Maybe you'll have more competition now ;D

I guess this coverage started with Craig at Ionics then?   Craig? ;D
