You can't beat using proper tools for the job though. I've heard the newspaper one, more often with vinegar? but never tried it.
i see your point, i wasnt trying to be offensive, if i was i appologise.
only problem with neswapaper is though that it can scratch but usually it does a good job

Heck you'd have to try harder than that to be deemed offensive round here.

Have you got any window cleaning stories to share?
You know George Formby...

Now I go window cleaning to earn an honest bob,
For a nosy parker it's an interesting job.
Now it's a job that just suits me,
A window cleaner you would be,
If you could see the things I see
When I'm cleaning windows.

Honeymooning couples too,
You should see them bill and coo.
You'd be surprised the things they do,
When I'm cleaning windows.

In my profession I work hard,
But I'll never stop,
I'll climb this blinking ladder
Till I get right to the top.

The blushing bride she looks divine
The bridegroom he is doing fine,
I'd rather have his job than mine,
When I'm cleaning windows

The chamber maids sweet names I call
Me minds not on me work at all,
It's a wonder I don't fall,
When I'm cleaning windows.

I know a fella, such a swell,
He has a thirst that's plain to tell,
I've seen him drink his bath as well,
When I'm cleaning windows.

Pajamas laying side by side,
Ladies nighties I have spied,
And I've often seen what goes inside,
When I'm cleaning windows.

Now there's a famous movie queen,
She looks a flapper on the screen,
But she's more like eighty than eighteen,
When I'm cleaning windows.

She pulls her hair all down behind,
And then pulls down her . .. never mind!
And after that, pulls down the blind,
When I'm cleaning windows.

At eight o'clock a girl she wakes,
At five past eight a bath she takes, 1'
At ten past eight me ladder breaks,
When I'm cleaning windows.

just thought id update you, i had my 1st house with not one removable screen, so i took the widows out and cleaned them. security screens i cleaned beforehand so no mess was on windows after i cleaned them.

im sponsoring the local police magazine crime prevention now as well, comes out in April.


till next time
