I wouldnt bother, unless you want 2 £8 shops 42 miles away and are willing to wait 70 days for the money. :-X

you need to either have a lot together or be working nearby to each site to make it pay,

Hi Colin

"Miles away from me that mate + tunnel fare

that one might be too far, but it could of been the big step to bigger things, to get into commercial you have to start somewhere, beleive me the first jobs wont be on your doorstep, if you think that, you will be waiting a long time

why do a job that costs you just hoping something better comes alpng when you are just lining others pockets
Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go

but what is the "cream" thats often touted about?  lastweek i was offered a few Greggs at 5.40 a throw , in and out +sign . thats not even milk ,its not even semi skimmed , its sour milk

i believe if you take the bait you are lured in on a promise and then cant get out ,i bet the nationals have fulltime blokes ringing round and  lowering the price too.

It's spooky if you take the initial letter from each company,rearrange and add a few more to them it spells 'Stevie Wonders School of Window cleaners'!   ;D
