:shock:

A few dodgy phone snaps from the car ...

I posted on the other website, but I recommend if you have a watertank plumbed to your house, then try to hook up some sort of diversion for the next time it rains. Let nature flush out all the dust from your roof / gutters, then reconnect.

Me thinks 'first flush' systems will not cope with this fine crap.

Amazing photo!

I'm overseas at the moment and knew something was going on when everyone's Facebook statuses were referring to "The end of the world" and "Orange". :lol:

I'm with choppo - Dan@DMS I reckon you're going to be a busy man once it settles!!

Cheers,

Its actually really stuffed me. I turned up to the job today and the 2 cars i was meant to do were covered so i cleaned one up and got it ready to buff. Went away to wash my hands and it was covered again!

So i had to leave it it would have made the filter in my buffer work overtime as well lol.

So because of that ive had to shuffle everything round and dont have any free space for about 2 weeks!

So anyone that wants to wash cars i know a bloke that can sell you a franchise :D
