Gaza, dead on.

I also shave with an electric razor while I poo too, but only in the mornings.

Roger,

Are you still after town centre work?  I was asked by a lady who works in the Bridge Inn (the pub by the bridge) if I would call in and give them a quote. 

I don't want it and thought of you, so I said I'd pass it onto someone else.

If you want it speak to Jean, the manageress.  If you don't want it, ask Ian if he does.

Regards,

Tosh

That's already my account!

Ah, sod her. If she's going to mess about you're welcome to it.

She doesn't want it weekly, then says come back in a fortnight.
Then when you turn up she says "no thanks, can you come back next week?"

So next time you leave it longer and she says "where have you been, they're filthy?"

Underpriced at £15 in and out of downstairs anyway.

Ian wouldn't want it, maybe I should give it to Simon! ;D

No, mate, let's blacklist her.  Honest.  Drop her like a hot potato.  I promise I'll never clean the 'joint'.  People who change the terms and conditions in their favour really annoy me.  You turn up, sort out your kit, go to clean the place and they say something along the lines of 'Not this month, Mate'.  Drop them.  I don't want your cast offs either. 

I've had a good few 'bad customers' recently, and I've love to know they couldn't get another window cleaner.  Like that woman in Garden City I've told you about.

Simon doesn't advertise - and I know he doesn't like pubs (too much like hard work), so I'd be surprised if he took it on.

Let's start with Jean in the Bridge Inn.

Or should I give her a really high quote - say £40 - and ensure that in my sales patter that EVERY WEEK MEANS EVERY WEEK and she pays me one in advance?

I can feel a South East Wales (Chepstow) Federation of Window Cleaners comming on!

There'd be me, you, Ian, Tom (probably), plus a few more when I explain it to them.

Regards,

Tosh.
