Bagpuss Report post Posted May 11, 2006 Rainbow Queen, Our window cleaner turns up when he needs drinking money Not seen him since before Xmas Then he sent a younger lad, to fill in for him, because he'd fallen off his ladder Good luck Debs x Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisann Report post Posted May 11, 2006 Glad it's not just me then our window man turned up other day and I wasn't home and hubby had no money so he asked how much do we owe mate so I can tell my wife.The cheaky b**ody bloke said ?15 three months at once a month. I know the back windows and patio door haven't been done since we moved in 4 months ago cause we too have the side gate bolted and the next door have a 6 feet fence so he can't climb over. Boy is he going to cop it when he shows up for his money he can have half the money that's his lot. Lisa Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Viper Report post Posted May 11, 2006 I'd wait until he was up his ladder then open the window, push the ladder a bit away from the wall (not letting go) and then say if you don't confess I will push it over. Mind you I am an evil cow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mel Report post Posted May 12, 2006 I caught my window cleaner out once. i was ill so had the day off work. i had lace curtains so he didnt see i was in.he did the lounge window then went on to next doors windows. when he came to be paid i gave him 20p and told him he would get the rest when he did the rest of my windows. He didnt come back again after that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
