The only thing I can see Nathan is because you have registered as a carer you can't take the grant because of income limits, otherwise is doesn't make sense.
Everyone was telling you to hold out a little while before you sold your work and became a carer.
You could have taken the grant THEN sell your round, then apply to be a carer.

Of course Nathan I’m not accusing you of working for cash only,just saying as a whole there are lots of window cleaners that are mostly cash only.

I thought buying a round was not tax deductable so by extension thought that selling one didn't count towards profit

Not talking about vans and equipment.

Also the idea of putting money into a trust fund for your kids might be affected if part of your brain believes that you are living in the very last of the last days?

However, due to the health issues my work was starting on unravel and since I was selling my work for upto 5 cleans worth then i couldnt wait for it to unravel any further.  Certainly as the talks of the grant wasnt available until june/july and its only recent have they said that you can apply now in may.

Nathan what about bungalows?

A mate of mine fell off his ladders years ago; broke both his ankles. Now, all he does is trad bungalows, not interested in wfp, seems to do ok. He's very chilled and happy with his life; not rich, but very contented.

So ive completed the work Ive had and to be honest, ive enjoyed using trad tools and actually enjoyed doing the work.  Pleasantly suprised.

My ladders have swivel feet and mits at the top end and so they are very stable.  If its not safe then the window was skipped until the wfp set up is here for next month. 
From my previous trad days, I have learnt to use those foam pipe warmers/protectors on some rungs.  This is when you are at the top of the ladder, I normally rest my knee caps on the rung when working. So the foam pads it a little.
I also learnt in the colder months to insulate the rung which I hold with my hand when carrying the ladder and another foam cover sliced on half to stick onto the side of the ladder which rests on the shoulder when carrying it.  Lol, it all helps making the ladder more comfortable for use.

We all enjoy using trad tools m8 but we all have have it in our minds that the old tanks full of water only a short walk away lol,you’ll never convince me in this lifetime I only enjoy using em because it’s not very often and it’s not something I have to do a lot ,🤣 good on ya Nathan but you should have got yourself a trolley and carried on with the pole.
