I worked 9:45am til 5pm today (with an hours lunch) and managed a good day... I just sat in the van when the rain got a bit heavy.

It's supposed to be a little bit better tomorrow... But then heavy rain all day on Wednesday :(

No idea re modding.  Not been contacted by anyone.  Wouldn't have time to give it my fullest attention so it would only be a bit part anyway.

Last time I looked His name (t knight) was still there. I think they've talked him round. It's a bit of a closed shop, it's supposed to be a horrible job, but they are loath to let anyone else do it.The forums greatest days are behind it anyway.

rained at 8,fined up at 9 did an hour just stopped raining again,back out when it fines up,customers dont like it,and i hate working in the rain so dont do it,customers dont mind you being behind when weather like this and we earn enough to be able to miss because of the weather
trad cleaning in the rain is a lot different than wfp in the rain
i still wouldnt enjoy getting wet
I dont enjoy it either m8 but no reason not to work, I dont enjoy doing a lot of things but some have to be done.

I know you are trad as I was for years but we wfp now to work more amonst others things today was not pretty and I certainly did not like it.  where is the summer  ::)

Why dont you do the commercial today, if you can do it whatever the weather, and domestic tomorrow?

Can't got it booked in tomorrow as its going to take 3 of us 10 hours to clean and tomorrow is the only time we could all get together.
And its a 2 hour drive each way to get there.

Thats probably a fair enough answer  ;D

oi Discount stick to the topic in hand son  ;)

I couldn't be any wetter if I went fully clothed swimming this morning  ;D

Quick change, and off I go this avo.

Not window cleaning, doing gutters though.  I really don't think you can do a decent job in heavy rain.

was thinking of

getting a letter written out that i could put through custys doors on a day like this explaining that the

rain wont affect the clean

I really wouldn't bother with a letter... I always think that if you make a fuss over something by trying to explain it in a letter then there is more risk of them making a fuss over it because you have brought it to their attention!

It's on/off showers here (Surrey) at the moment... I'm going out in about 15 mins... If the showers get too hard I'll just sit in the van until they pass.

I was working in both Surrey and Sussex today.  Got wetter as the day went on.  Did reasonably OK but hardly a spectacular effort on my part.  Finished about 2.30 as I was peed off with being wet.  I didn't get any complaints.  I did get one mild expression of surprise but that's all.

I watched a programme on weather statistics and apparently there is 165 days of rain, per year in Great Britain.

Thats a lot of days of not working for those that are worried about getting wet!!!!!!!

Rob ;D

I will add - (for the smarty pants) that it did not say that it rained everywhere on the 165 days.

Good point because the far west coasts/mountains  do seem to get rather more than the east.
It's a game of three halves!
