watering can too bulky

750ml oasis bottle is fine for average sized cocks, you can use it sat down in front as well, unzip, throw a jumper over cock n bottle to conceal form passers by/custies.
Don't drink from the Oasis bottle  ;D

Carry some FSG cleaning leaflets with a space for a price, if you happen to notice that one of you customers needs this service write the price on it and post it through the letterbox with your clean slip.

Good tip this one. I have a couple of wedges in the van for a ladder foot on sloping ground, but this is a good one. Thanks.  :-*

Must say in reply to Dazmond, i would never clean in all weathers, i think that is terrible advise. You get ped wet through, the seats get ped wet through, customers hate it, I hate it....... i cant give enough reasons why i disagree. would you wash your car in the rain? I personally think there are enough dry days in the year without going out in all weathers! drizzle may be,  but heavy rain, NO NO NO for me

Put your prices up by 10% or more every 3 years or your round value  will be eaten alive by inflation.

Only do loud farts in the van and if needed only ever do smelly ones in their garden when it's windy as I can guarantee that if you do a real corker on a day with no wind, the customer will appear.

Also, don't do the insides of a customers house after eating 3 Mars bars for lunch. It may help you work, rest and play but it don't do much for what goes on in your guts in between.

Never ask to use a customers loo and do number two's. It'll stink the place out. Use a public loo instead.

Always wash your feet every morning and use foot powder. You never know when you may have to do the insides of a house and have to take your boots off.

Never wear socks with holes in them. Especially holes that are where your big toe pokes through.

Don't pick your nose and think no one's looking and don't flick that bogey. You never know where it may end up.
Just chant..... Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, Rama Rama, Hare Hare. It's beats chanting Tory Tory or Labour Labour.

Nothing to do with bank balance dazmond  :) i just dont think its worth losing good customers by insisting on working in the rain .
I had two customers today ( one 32 quid 6 weekly, one 50 quid 8 weekly) who asked me not to clean there windows today as there are thunderstorms due and their windows will be dirty again tomorrow.
Would you insist on cleaning them today and risk losing them customers whether you thought there point was valid or not?
