I know i've got nothing much on today so i am going to take my car to the carwash and spend my hard earned cash. Who's with me - no one? Let's have our windows cleaned instead then?

thats how i am thinking, im sat here raring to go, put its absolutely pelting down, i cant clean someones windows in this,

i dont mind working in the rain one bit but i just dont fancy cleaning windows in this, even with wfp.

i have worked lots in the rain but not this..... its  would seem to the customers as though i am mental and they would feel ripped off i am sure.

Ah right, I was trying to decipher it!

There will be plenty who disagree, but would you pay good money for it on a day like this?
..and let's face it, it ain't cheap.
Not only that, but the sort who will turn up in the rain are usually the ones who charge a lot more too. ::)

I don't understand these posts, I mean, to post surely you are behind the PC, and actually not out there?  ;D

Or atleast your sitting in the car with laptop and wireless, nice and dry. lol

No point in Swindon, the whole area has flood warnings & it's mega windy. Today is a total miss.
We worked y/day, and kept stopping/starting, as well as custies saying 'not in this weather surely'. Don't blame them really.
Swindon, Wiltshire.

Hi All

Lovely Day 8) 8) 8) ;D ;D ;D


Yeah, you can't work when it's heavy rain and wind...........Stupid that is ::) ::)

But light or even steady rain.....why not....if your customers moan just leave em out that month.  With WFP you wet em anyway and you wash a months muck off so they won't get too bad.  Most of my customers don't bother.......it's me who don't like getting wet ??? ??? ???
