Never mind the tractor all I want is a bucket and a ladder

18 December 2007 by Simon Mone

He may cry 'Humbug' with considerable frequency but Doug has shown a desire for a simpler life in 2008. While trying to chase down a few tardy payers before the country shuts down for the holidays Doug has been musing on how much easier it would be to be a window cleaner instead of an internet entrepreneur. Just a ladder, a bucket and a sponge.

I don't want to throw cold water on anybody's dream but it would not be a life without its stresses.

  • we live in a cold, wet place
  • some windows are quite high
  • if the Royal Mail sees cats as a big enough threat then window cleaners should beware of birds
  • where do you look as you clean the windows?
  • ladders or a really big brush? The list goes on.

And what tools are really needed? It's not just a bucket and sponge these days. It's a sophisticated technological solution that's required.

With John off driving a big red tractor at 10 miles an hour round the Edinburgh bypass and Doug up his ladder I can see some new product offerings from the Mimpire in the New Year.

Actually, this has been a long held ambition on my part ever since sneaking in to watch the 'Confessions...' film as a 14 year old and falling in love with Linda Hayden!

If I might --perhaps you should consider adding a few images.  I dont mean to disrespect what youve said; its very enlightening, indeed.  However, I think would respond to it more positively if they could be something tangible to your ideas.  Keep it up, but put a little more into it next time.

I dont know what it is about this blog that turns me off so much, but you just dont seem to get me excited.  I dont know if its the lack of content or just the way you wrote it.  But you really dont seem to understand that your readers may not agree with you.  Youre really just too out there for me.
