Thanks for all the encouragement guys
so what... 
the more pople know the better in my opinion.
Its the concept that we are all £2.00 a house dole merchants topping up our drinking coffers that makes Joe public look down their noses at us.
In Holland, window claners are looked upon as tradesmen and afforded appropriate levels of respect. Their salaries are good and not questioned.
Stop hiding...be proud...you do not have to be scared to earn good money 
I agree, plenty of trades make really good money - no one has a problem with it, but when a wc'er comes along and says I make £30/hr thats when people get annoyed as if we are conning people or something.
I think the perception is, unfortunately, that window cleaning is an unskilled trade. People view us as manual labourers... and they don't like it that we earn more than them
