A little wooden plank, a single rope, a bucket, a squeegee and maybe a spare pair of underpants are all you need to be in business.
I can't imagine the day will ever come when I will not feel my stomach lurching into my throat when I see this kind of thing in China. And I see this kind of thing nearly every single day. Thankfully, it's not always directly outside my bedroom window!
This was a familiar sight when we lived in our high rise as well! A few days before window cleaning, there would be daily announcements telling us to close our blinds so that we 'won't be surprised or frightened' - I suppose, by the window guy hanging there as you trot out of the shower. Life in the villa (5 stories) is a little simpler!
ReplyDeleteMsCaroline, I'm sure there are daily announcements here as well, but considering there are only a tiny handful of Western families who reside in our complex, they never end up getting translated into English. Surprise!
