What a waste...
« on: October 28, 2014, 03:53:54 pm »
This is one of my 12 weekly jobs...

It's in the middle of nowhere in the Hampshire countryside.

The guy who owns it can't live in it for more than 4 months in a year because of tax reasons... The rest of the time he lives in Guernsey.

What a waste of a house!  :'(

Has anyone else got any similar customers?

That's well nice. You should offer to live there and look after it for him :)

We have a big place in Weybridge we do full exterior clean twice a year. 'Madam' as she is known is there about 6/8 weeks of the year. It's then panic stations for when she is visiting to make sure there's not so much as a leaf dirtying the driveway. They're owners of the bank of Abu Dhabi or something. Crazy life really. Their house is way over the top, the one in the pics is much nicer.

That's a window cleaners house - you can tell that by his van on the drive.

Used to do very similar in Donegal, Ireland they only lived in it for 6 weeks a year but kept the windows cleaned all year long!! - think it's a backward country - think again - crawling with millionaires - but you'd never spot them - they keep it well hidden.

Tom-01 is wasted all the time so he probably won't remember.

Yep I know Coworth Park, just round the corner from me, nice place I promised I'd take the wife to be there! Wonder who does the windows there..?

'Tis true, its good though being wasted all the time because my earnings of £40 per day look like £400 so I can say I earn £400 a day :)

Well going by what some earn on here they could well afford it.
