The Haters are all around the corner and love to see people fall the difference is HK will achieve more in one month than most people do in a year. Chris top talk as always happy new year and hope its a good one for you and family.

Thank you for such kind words mate really appreciate it. All the best with your pressure washing business we are slowly getting out of this recession. Interest rates are about to drop. Chris thanks for your time the other night, I was getting so much stick online and we had a proper man to man conversation about life and the challenges in it. You are a real gent who has been through more shit in life than anyone can imagine. You deserve to run a successful exterior cleaning business after losing everything and still bouncing back. Thanks again mate, catch you soon all the best for 2024 💙

I tried starting up way up on the North Coast last October. I have a tiny gardening business with just enough customers for me to live. Went out and spent every penny I had on kit only to find out I needed to spend a further £305 on a licence. And, get this, if the council, for whatever reason, reject your application they keep the fking money! Not an admin fee, the whole lot. A blatant act of state theft.

Don't get me started on government beurocracy mate. What are you doing now?

Thanks again for another great video Chris. Good to hear some straight talking to help reset the old paradigm occasionally mate, fair play to you 👍 I've been in business for a 'lot' of years and learned a lot of lessons along the way but it's surprising how you don't notice the stupid things, like being bothered by idiots, creep into your subconscious. Thanks again mate, keep on keeping on 😉 👍

Karma....can't beat it. Well done for ignoring the naysayers

Hi Chris I started just over two years ago now. Invested in the van, sign writing the works Baileys WFP Set Up no Face Book or Google just a few Watt App groups for local housing estates and a hell of a lot of canvassing on the doorstep and still doing some of the same. I now have 500+ good customers. Too much Facebook ect bites into your time. Best to get off your arse and put yourself about. I'm 55 years old, just old school I guess. D

Hi not related to this video just wondered wether you have any experience with using isopropyl to prevent water freezing enabling working in colder temperatures WCW advertising it saying 1 liter will take a 600litre tank down to -3. But according to my research would need 60litres alcohol for 600 litre tank not cost effective have talked to them but they say it works I have found it doesn’t wondering if you have come across this at all and had some insight Bob.
