The amazing Don Parker - a 79 year old Window Cleaner, in Guildford, Surrey, UK.

I was walking down a street earlier today when I saw this man walking up a steep hilly road, carrying a ladder.

I followed him & watched him do his work for a while.

I just HAD to go ahead and speak with him & what I heard amazed me.

He gave me his permission to conduct this little interview with him.

I hope these 160 seconds will have a profound impact on your life ... just as it's had on mine.

    Good Luck !

  • Talking with my father yesterday he mentioned he had been recorded last year. Searching You Tube i found him!!

    Well what can i say - he hasn't had a holiday in the 64 years he has been cleaning windows, is up at 0500 every day, still works every day despite a recent fall and wouldn't know what to do with himself if he stopped.! Is he the oldest window cleaner in the UK?

    (how do i get a copy of this for the family archive?)
