... Posted August 10, 2022 Report Posted August 10, 2022 (edited) I've just sorted all through my gear to see what I may need...I'm all good at moment except for the smelly bait for in 2 weeks time.... I've also just come across a fault with my Bait Boat. 1 of the Springs that helps to flip the boat has snapped, trying to find 1 is hard work, but a quick solution wad a spring from the wife's hair clip, does the jib but will need a thicker wired spring for more power.

Carpbell3 Posted August 26, 2022 Report Posted August 26, 2022 I must be the worlds oldest window cleaner mate had to let a couple of lads go ended up real stuck to get around the round in time. Not bad to be fair, thought I would be too old for it ladders are heavier than I recall, one of those jobs no one wants anymore, don't know why as you can soon build your own round up if you want to plus there is always work going I've doon it all started on houses and industrial done cradle work in London and four floor buildings off the ladder they use a pole these days for the commercial work really surprised they struggle to find young lads willing to do window cleaning. Been offered a part time position might take it things have changed they don't even collect anymore it all goes through bank transfer it was the collecting that put me off building my own round im too soft to be knocking doors the grannies would be holding out on me lol.
