Neighbours locked in a bitter feud, over window cleaning!

John Byron, who lives in a ground-floor flat, complained when John Trayers – who lives in the apartment above – began using a ladder when he washed his windows.

How would the guy in the ground floor flat respond if he was using wfp????

I'd hate to be cleaning the ist floor flat windows as this fella would definately moan about it.

And how can he be blocking off access to his flat, he'd only be in front of his door for a few minutes!!!!!!

A case of too much time on their hands I think ??? ??? ???
Come and talk dirty to us!!!

How would you guys react if a customer tried something along the lines of this?

The tenant in the ground floor flat cannot deny his neighbour upstairs access when it is required for purposes such as cleaning his windows.

The neighbour upstairs, however, would do well just to politely advise him when he wished to do so, and give him a day's notice.

This reminds me of an upper floor flat which I used to clean. The lady downstairs (retired spinster librarian) hated the idea of giving access to me, and made it nigh on impossible by planting shrubs and leaving plant pots all over the place. She would go off on one if I so much as touched anything. She would stand and watch my every move.

I put up with this for a few months, but eventually told my customer that I couldn't work this way anymore and stopped doing them.

Later, while doing another flat opposite, I saw Miss Librarian fall over one of her own pots! I know we shouldn't rejoice over unrighteousness, but I did enjoy that one!  ;D

One of those times you know you definitely shouldn't laugh, but all you can do is laugh? :)

Yes, and the best bit was that she looked over to see whether I had seen it happen, and realized that I had. She must have been able to see me shaking with laughter!  ;D
