Over the Xmas period, i've had time to think and Q3 and Q4 of 2006 are going to be where i get my head really into doing something. For other reasons Q1 and Q2 are just not viable.
Been doing a lot of planning and one idea has come up.
To carry out this idea, I need names and addresses (or towns so that i can Yell.com them) of good 'hand car washes' across the UK.
Realise that a lot of people just go to their nearest one and take no notice of what they're called so any info would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
SB

I bet they get some strange requests. Most people are probably surprised it's not an 0901 number

They wash you car by hand and do a really good job too, I think it's a good name, I didn't forget it, because it's funny :lol:

There was one in St Helens called 'The Best Hand Job in Town' but they made them change it and now all the signs say 'The Best In Town' - with a big gap between 'best' and 'in'!!

Rob... STOP!!
You can't still eat left over turkey... unless you froze it? You'll be getting poorly!! :lol:
Anyway, there's a few car washes in Colchester.... George's Valeting, and also there's a couple that have been set up in the big DIY store carparks. Don't know if this is nationwide yet? They're always really busy but not sure if they come under the DIY store's company name or their own - will check it out next time I pass!

Sorry Jayne.
In some car washes the vehicles come out all wet and have to be hand rubbed to dry them. In the better (and probably dearer) washes the roof has jets of hot air so the cars come out blown right off. A much better way, I think.
So for anyone interested in a Car Wash venture, part of the customer service is to give the best job. I mean, to me, you really need the job completed so there's not one drip left. The customer must leave with a smiling face :D
Cheers, Nigel
