Been saving for months for this...CLX 4 £28!  ;D

Well finally had the balls last month to convert some posh grannies bungalows to WFP after 6 yrs!
not one of them was bothered! Funny how we can let our own fears hold us back from doing something that turns out to be no problem.

na at those heights I'd have gone for the SL2 with the lightest brush gardiners do.

you might need someone else to give you a hand lifting it but once its on the glass it should be fine
I've never been to bed with an ugly bird but I've woken up with loads!

I was concerned about that myself, maybe have the pole anchored from the roof?

it should be ok - I've worked at 3 and a half feet and it wasn't too bad.

Could have got a broom handle from the supermarket.  Some of them have the right sized thread to take a plastic angle adaptor.  At that length, external hose wouldn't really matter  :)

Its a run of about 10 bungalows so worth using a baby pole & will be the van washing pole too now.
