Mentions: My 200ft Abseil from the top of The Vermont Hotel in Newcastle on the 2nd April 2011

In 2011, I took part in a charity event at The Vermont Hotel in Newcastle on World Autism Awareness Day, which is the 2nd April. This event was an abseil from the rooftop to street level on the road called Side. This was a 200 foot abseil and it was a very breezy day too. I throughly enjoyed my time.

In response to the dangerous law, lesbian activists stormed the BBC News studio during the Six O'Clock News, believing that the nationwide marches, blockades and protests were being ignored by reporters.

Another group abseiled into the House of Lords on knotted washing lines after peers voted in favour of the bill. Scotland repealed the law in 2000 and despite several failed attempts, England and Wales finally followed in 2003.

So!! I've been working out, training, yelling ADRIAAAAN. For a reason mind you. In October I'm going to do the world's tallest indoor abseil. 418 foot of abseiling. I get wobbly when I stand on a chair!!!! Now, I'm not doing this just to prove how very cool and sporty and handsome and cool I am. I'm doing it for charity!! I'm raising money for the National Autistic Society, a fabulous charity that puts loads of hard work in for people like me! Cool people. Cool people who also happen to be Autistic. Follow the link on this post to a JustGiving page, all the money goes straight to NAS. Even if you can only spare a quid, or can only share this post on your page or at work or show it to your fave cute barrister, it all helps! In conclusion, I am cool. Cool people raise money for charity. Please donate to NAS and I will reward you with pics and/or footage of me abseiling and probably looking real suave and handsome and deffo not looking like a terrified strawberry marshmallow.

My Outdoors: on dry land

When I left you last week, I was just getting home from my adventures on the water – and when I say “home”, I mean back to my tent near Corfe Castle. So this is what else I got up to. First, I snoozed a bit and then stuffed my face with Pringles and chocolate cake bars. Breakfast was a long time ago and we’d had a busy night and morning and frankly, I didn’t have any proper breakfast food in. My…

Hanging On The Job

Landscape maintenance folks hanging about the Cloud Forest. Photo credit: Jonathan Chua.

This was a moment that I couldn’t be happier with, where the face of one of these folks could at least be seen. The sky was overcast so this shot was spared harsh shadows. Greens and yellows were toned down a little in post.

WINDOW CLEANING IN HIGH RISES: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

Everyone enjoys seeing through windows that have been kept clean. Regular window washing is a crucial part of maintaining both residential and commercial structures. An entire property's first impression might be ruined by dirty windows. Professional window cleaners are responsible for cleaning high-rise windows because doing so is a perilous task that calls for specialized training and tools.

Sydney's hot environment necessitates routine window cleaning for owners of high-rise buildings. The majority of owners renowned for their high structures and glass-fronted offices in the Sydney area decide to hire window cleaning firms because doing so saves their workers a lot of time and effort. Window washing calls for a great deal of responsibility and following safety regulations.

CLEARING WINDOWS PROFESSIONALLY

While high-rise window washing may not seem like a particularly dangerous job, it actually does present some risks to the worker. After all, cleaning the windows of high-rise buildings often requires scaling a structure. You need a particular training program and set of abilities to do a job like a window washing properly. Cleaning the windows of tall buildings can be compared to rock climbing.

High levels of mobility are necessary for cleaning high-rise windows, and a strict set of work safety regulations must be followed. Towering to astonishing heights in the skies, individual buildings make the use of safe professional harnesses and climbing gear essential.

Office workers in a high-rise or mid-rise buildings enjoy beautiful views as they conduct their daily activities, and their view is made possible by shining, clear windows. Glass windows need to be cleaned in various types of buildings, including homes, businesses, retail locations, and large structures.

High-rise building window cleaning frequently ranks among the world's most hazardous vocations. In light of this, a career as a window washer implies a certain amount of risk and danger. Window cleaners must rigorously adhere to the prescribed safety precautions when working due to the hazards of the job.

The risks of washing high-rise windows are kept to a minimum by clear Regulatory standards and appropriate training. Despite the risks, there are surprisingly few fatalities in this line of work. That does not imply that accidents do not occur or that these employees possess superior reasoning skills. When their equipment breaks down or when unexpectedly high winds arrive, city emergency crews have occasionally had to save window washers working on high-rise buildings.

Some highly competent window washers revealed in an interview with the Washington Post that they worry about being suspended from a height of several stories. And they employ that terror to maintain their attention on safe working procedures. However, for those who decide to work at it, it is a reasonable trade-off with stunning vistas from their "office."

Cleansing Professions - Janitorial tasks are frequently dismissed as being simple, low-paying jobs. High-rise window cleaning, however, calls for considerable expertise. The technique is less important than being able to complete the task while hanging from cables and ropes or standing on a platform hundreds of feet in the air. The work is also consistent. For instance, it takes four months to thoroughly clean the windows of a structure like the Empire State Building in Sydney. It is time to start over by the time the crew has finished the building. Less time is needed, for smaller high-rises. However, the city is not short on business buildings with windows, so there will always be window work for these experienced workers.

Since it takes a particular level of industrial training, expertise, and no fear of heights, this type of employment might not be suitable for everyone. Being a high-rise window cleaner demands guts as well because the job is physically demanding, comes with many challenges, and necessitates careful planning.

To do the cleaning operation safely and effectively, professional window cleaners must be furnished with all necessary cleaning equipment. Cleaning the windows of tall buildings is a risky task that requires the right tools. Professional window cleaning involves risk, just like any other line of work.

HIGH-RISE WINDOW CLEANING RISKS

The level of expertise the worker has, whether they are wearing the proper protection equipment, the state of their safety equipment, and how safely each window cleaner works individually all play a role in how risky the task is. In the section below, we go over the drawbacks of being a window cleaner and explain why building owners of high- and mid-rise structures should almost always hire specialists to handle this hazardous task.

TECHNIQUES OF THE INDUSTRY

High-rise window cleaners utilize tools including buckets of soapy water, squeegees, and cloths, just like you would at home to clean your windows. The main distinction is that they are operating at higher altitudes. Window cleaners frequently use a range of instruments in various sizes. In order to keep items where they are needed, they also dress like handymen and wear a tool belts.

buckets with water and dish soap in them.

To spread soapy water across windows, use sponges or T-bar wands.

Glass scraper to remove dirt and debris that has become lodged.

replaceable rubber blade squeegees.

cloths or rags to polish windows and clean the squeegees.

Movable Bosun chair or platform on a pulley system.

a safety belt

working gloves

In rubber boots

WHY CONTACT A PROFESSIONAL TO CLEAN HIGH-RISE WINDOWS

Building service managers may be tempted to try and handle window cleaning internally because it is often a low-paying labor activity. And if your building has only two or three stories, it is acceptable. But the task becomes more challenging the taller your building is. Working with an expert high-rise window cleaning firm will give you access to knowledgeable, skilled workers that are truly good at what they do. The responsibility for safety training is also not on you. Any OSHA-mandated safety training will be provided with care by the contractor, lowering your risk in the case of a workplace tragedy.
