Youve got as much chance being killed crossing the road or driving on a road. But I don't ring my missus every couple of hours just to let her know I haven't been mown down!!!
Julian,
There's probably a
greater chance of getting killed crossing the road than falling off a ladder and dying, however, I'm not saying we all should phone our Missis every two hours to let them know we're alright either.
Crikey, it's an effort for me to phone her at anytime anyway!
I'm just answering Squeaky's question about working alone and how that factored into window cleaning from ladders.
Mind you, as Toff's post shows, there are considerations to take into account when lone working with ladders.
How would he have faired if he didn't have his mobile phone?
