Try just turning up and clearing that one out which is on a hill, 3 storeys up, set back with a tiny gap either by ladders or a gutter vac and to top it off try not to get electrocuted too

One for Lance methinks
To be honest I would not want that type of job even if using a picker.
How about you?

I had to laugh as the guy on the phone suggested to me to use ladders or go out the roof window on the other side of the roof as the pitch of the roof is quite shallow. WTF...mind to be fare he did say he was a climber and best use a rope and harness... well why don’t he do it then I’m thinking.
But still he has not seen the gutter survey yet which is rather shocking or could be
