If it's not to cold you should be fine if you keep it flowing and watch for jets freezing up but this cold snap hopefully won't last much longer. And since these windows were cleaned the snow has increased in depth by eighteen inches so not worth worrying about anyway ;D

Did full days Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and until 1pm Thursday and had a full day of paperwork, invoicing, emailing, quoting today.

All set for a good 4 day push next week then Berlin for a long weekend next weekend.

The problem for me isn't so much frozen hoses, it's a case of where I'm going to park as all the snow is banked up at the kerbside so most of the streets are down to single lanes.

Monday was fine, mix of commercial and residential. Tuesday morning the same then Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday internal builders clean on some apartments local to me, £390 for 10 hours spread over 2 days so it worked out well with the weather being so bad. Thursday on commercial but finished a job at 1pm then gave up for the week. Today have spent nearly 5 hours on paperwork and catching up on invoicing / chasing payments etc. All in all a very good week.  👍

It was also known as The Munich Putsch. It was an attempt by Hitler to get into power. Good job that never happened.
Anyway, right push wrong city  ;D.
Have a good time "and mother wake me early in the morning".
