Today I'm grateful for our window cleaner Quinn.
When we first moved here I kept my eye out for a window cleaner but it was quite a while before I spotted one cleaning the windows of a neighbour across the road. I think his name was Tony.
Anyway I approached him and he agreed to add us to his round. He cleaned the windows and said he'd be back in about a month. Great I thought.
Except he wasn't back within a month, or two, or even three. I can't remember how long the gap was before I spotted him again, cleaning our neighbours windows. I was prepared to give him another chance so I waited to hear him cleaning our windows, but he didn't. Next time I looked out there was no sign of him. He'd vanished, again.
Some time later I spotted another window cleaner cleaning a different neighbours windows so I approached him - Quinn and he cleaned our windows, front and back, for a reasonable price and said he'd be around each month.
I didn't hold my breath but he has been roughly once a month ever since. He uses a water spraying system which means he doesn't use ladders. It's probably not such a thorough method but at least I'm not going to find him lying on the ground having fallen from a ladder.
Well Quinn was here today so my windows are clean and I'm grateful.
