The Cleaning Show

Yesterday was the annual day trip out with Sweeping Beauties Cirencester to The Cleaning Show at Birmingham NEC. The day started perfectly with Kevin from Sweping Beauties blowing the cob webs from his wallet and treating me to a full english breakfast in a cafe in Nailsworth. Stomachs full, we hit the road to The Cleaning Show. After a short trip from Stroud to Birmingham we arrived with anticipation of new cleaning technologies.

When we arrived we took a good walk around to see which companies were at the show.
The first stand that looked interesting was the stone restoration guys. I had a good chat with them about the new cheeta pad system. Looks like a very impressive system and could help speed up the restoration prossess.

Then of course we had to stop for a swift pint!

Also spoke with Chemspec regarding their chemicals. I always hear a lot of good reports on their products and love their pog solvent spotter.

Overall, there seemed to be less bussinesses at the show compared to previous years and much fewer visitors. Hope this is not a sign of the cleaning industry struggling under the current econmical pressures. It's not something that we have noticed here in Gloucestershire and fingers crossed the cleaning business keeps going from strength to strength here.

After a further pint and our bags full of freebies we headed back to Cirencester and Stroud. The wife was impressed by the laundry sheets, I know how to spoil a lady!!
