Look Up!



I always find it funny how peeps stop their rushing and follow my camera when it points up, yet reckon I'm the same - who wants to miss something nice he never noticed on his everyday-route, no?

I took a different route yesterday to buy a window-cleaner that sucks the water from the glass.
When it was finally ready to go, battery-wise, it was too dark already.

And here you have it: Neither of us cleaned the windows since we moved in.
Which was end 2010. But, hey. We don't smoke, hence... Let's see how much "dirt" I get off with this new toy.

On the way I also saw this and thought... weird...



The cam stressed the reflection, but look behind that - there's an ordinary cuppa for the driver sitting there, no lid, nothing.
Does the coffee/tea really neatly stays inside this, I cannot imagine...

Last not least...



I didn't even mind having a closer look. Money makes you happy? It can give you freedom, yes, and with that happiness, but a phrase like that ... money down the drain, haha.
(Construction site... sewer-system, ever-lasting, too...)

15 windows and a balcony door. In Perth I saw a cleaning system (Italian made) with a long arm. I should've tried to get it here.
Wish me luck that cheapy works!

Good luck with the window cleaning! The last time my windows were cleaned was just over 1 year ago when I actually hired a window cleaner to do it, but they need another big clean again!
I wonder about the cup in the car. If I take a cup in the car it must have a lid otherwise the liquid will go all over!
Have a nice weekend Iris.

It's raining and will all weekend - I will have to delay the cleaning...
Maybe the driver has coffee in a thermos jug and has a cuppa before going in at work?
At vw was one creepy guy who was always there first and did some crossword until I opened the main door, despite he had a key himself...
Anyhows, wish you a nice weekend, too, Sami.

Window cleaning is one of those household jobs that's very easy to put off, I try to do it once a year but it doesn't always happen ☺ sounds like the weather saved you Iris, if I was you I'd wait until spring ☺ The mug situation is a bit weird but the reflection is super. Have a nice weekend you two.

I find it funny to hear this from so many peeps about the window cleaning, Grace - I really am not alone, I guess :-)
Sadly I have to try if it works for in case not I wanna give it back...
Dito, you two have a nice weekend, too.
