    Once a year I used to get the fun job of pressure washing the patio and around the pool of one of those houses, I think. Took me from 8am to past 6.30pm one time cos the machine kept breaking down and the boss had to buy & bring round a new one which promptly sprung a leak in the hose attachment. Seriously considered throwing it in the pool and walking out. Fun times! Before I earned their trust and showed I could do the job fine the guy would come out with a broom and 'help' me sweep all the gunky stuff off onto the lawn. No idea what he did for a living. Huge houses, massive gardens, golf club right next to them, stunning views, totally soulless & rife with stress and paranoia. Really don't miss it!
