"Do you have a bucket?" - Mrs C
...was not what Kash and Sevan wanted to hear from a beneficiary at the start of a mission to clean Mrs C's windows. Thankfully, Mrs C was not as unprepared as they initially feared. There was a mop bucket, some cleaning cloths and a brand new step ladder and window cleaning pole. Mrs C had a large bottle of Fairy Liquid and the dregs of some white wine vinegar too. Sevan mixed them together with warm water and made some good-enough-for-the job window washing liquid while Kash put the window washing pole together.
Inevitably, Kash and Sevan got wet. Sometimes in expected ways, like water dribbling down their sleeves as they reached up to clean the windows. Other times, they were surprised, like when they tried to rinse the mop bucket with the garden hose that was strung over a window. The bucket stayed dry and instead, they turned on a water feature that sprayed everywhere, giving the window and the GoodGymers a nice a shower.
Once they had everything prepared, Kash and Sevan breezed through cleaning Mrs C's traditional wooden sash windows. They speedily worked through the panes in the back garden and back door, plus the bay window in front, cleaning the frames and sills too. The squeegee wasn't great, leaving a few streaks, but Mrs C was really pleased and could see the difference immediately.
