    I would like to lodge a complaint please :D

    My lounge goes from one end of the house to the other, and has a patio slide window at one end and a bay window at the other.

    The windows are now SO clean a pigeon has just flown and crashed in to the patio window thinking that it can get to the front of the house, it is now sitting stunned on the back fence, and I have a feathered shaped mark on the window!!

    :rotfl: :rotfl:

    This is now the 4th time that has happened.

    Off to read back in a bit.
