Never leave your kids unsupervised around the Gutter Cleaner…
It’s a scary tale but it’s not as sinister as you might think… You see, kids love me… The Gutter Man… I don’t know if it’s the fact that I have a cape or that I wear my underpants on the outside of my clothing… It could be the big G on my chest… I’m not sure, but it could have something to do with the fact that I walk around on your roof and from this position, everyone looks up to me… Either way, the kids can’t believe it when they see this super hero on their roof… They want nothing more than to be just like their hero… And so starts the problem… I was gutter cleaning Mornington when I heard these two tiny voices… “Hi!” “What you doing up there?” I stood there with my hands placed sternly on my hips, cape flapping in the breeze… I mutter under my breath… “I’m cleaning the gutters, leave me alone” But kids these days are so darn pushy… “What are you doing? How did you get up there?” “Oh, I flew up here”. “Wow!” “You're up so high” “Gran, do you see that man?” Gran flicks me a disinterested smile and as she walks back into the kitchen she says… “You be careful up there” Wow, thanks Gran for those words of wisdom… Now that our life altering interaction has drawn to a close, I get back to my gutter cleaning Rosebud duties… By this stage, the wind is picking up and I’ve got a facefull of cape. I'm seriously questioning my choice to wear this thing… I’m thinking… “I should be more like Spiderman and go capeless”… As I stand there battling to see, I pull the cape from my face and what I see next is shocking… The two crazy kids next door are standing up, balancing precariously on the roof of their cubby house… “Ahh, little people”... “I don't think you should be doing that”... They interrupt… “Hey look, I’m on the roof like you”... “Hey don’t stand, sit… GRANNNN!” “EXCUSE ME GRAAANNN!” Nothing… Gran is nowhere to be seen “Na, na , na… Don’t Jump”…. Now I have a decision to make… Do I fly down there and rescue them or do I… Gran finally strolls back out from the kitchen like these kids aren’t about to plummet to their death… What the? These kids are both running around on the grass… Little buggers must have jumped down while I was plotting my rescue… Gran was none the wiser… It was a happy ending today but let this be a lesson to you all… My super gutter cleaning abilities are innate… My results are extremely impressive… So leave the gutter cleaning to me so you and your family can keep your feet planted firmly on the ground where it’s safe. Oh and one other thing… Never trust Gran with the kids… The Gutter Cleaning Co. Mornington Peninsula 20 Whipstaff Lane Safety Beach VIC 3936 Australia (03) 9015 4451 [email protected]
