No, not that one.
One of my old customers died on Thursday two hours before I turned up to clean his windows. Wife and Son there and son says (before telling me his Dad had died) are you the window cleaner? Carry on.
I ask how Trevor is and son says "They've just taken him away, he died this morning ..."
Really sad, he was a nice old guy, kept me fed with tea and choccy biccies, paid for neighbours windows when they weren't in etc.
He told me a humourous story about his army record. (During WW2 he was a lieutenant - being born in 1920) When the first Gulf war was on (1990/91) he got called up as a reservist. They wouldn't beleive he was 70 yrs old at the time as they had his date of birth as 1970 instead of 1920!
They even sent someone round to check he wasn't pulling a fast one.
(Is the above possible or was he telling me a story?)
