In the market for a new vacuum cleaner, currently deliberating between shark and miele.

Telly: panasonic. Needs upgrading.

Pants: models own

Throw some laundry powder / bio-tex onto the floor and hoover it up with your smelly hoover to make it smell nicer when it's hoovering.

Pro tips.

I agree it is, but it’s beyond my realms.

Ah, late to the party but does anyone want to buy a Miele S6290 (Silence)?

I actually prefer the POS bagless Hoover for running over the floorboards so the 'good' vacuum never gets used.

In brexit news, Sony moving HQ to the mainland.

Our Vax has been good, was 10th the price of a Dyson.

+1

Bought our mini one either from lidl or via Groupon in 2013 and it's still working perfectly.

The only negative is the general poor stand holder design (copied from Henry) and the plastic tab it uses breaking. Although Tbh I tend to separate the parts for storage anyway.

Full disclosure: I do wash the plastic internals from time-to-time, and clean the filter once a year.

Mogg raising my blood pressure with speech briefing:

There are outbreaks of realism all around I see.

All along we have been asking merely for the possible, not the
impossible. And late in the day as the EU has inevitably left it, I’m
sure common sense and practicality will now prevail.

The backstop doesn’t work for unionists in the Tory party, or the DUP.
The pretence that we might ever swallow it is now over.

It’s long past time to get on and just do the feasible deal that has
always been there to do.

late in the day as the EU has inevitably left it

unbelievable

Or really cheap agricultural rum...

Replace or wash the filter.

£500 worth of vacuum cleaners?

You're clearly into them so might I suggest you look into a proper integrated system like they use in the US.

Or go in to the 'spoons to drink the unlimited lavazza coffee from a german machine. Drink any drink that is European made not just branded.

Is the telly factory in Wales still?

Had a house that had that, along with a hot air heating system...in a place called lumbertubs.

I bought a Shark last time Dyson stuck his head up and we talked about it in here.

18 months later, the stripes it leaves on the carpet still leave a little thrill.

It is not even just that, a campaign of violence on both sides obviously broke trust. So first people need to trust each other before you can hammer out practical plans.

NI is still stuck in the "two communities" model in that aspect, young people that didn't live through the violence are not as distrustful. But if you look at the voting patterns, it's the same old **** atm.

And ROI doesn't want a barely won border poll, they probably want a good 60/40 with a good turnout. I rather see it take a little longer with more talking and consent to reduce the risk for more bitterness, but well... a hard messy Brexit will potentially force it forwards.

The English hard-brexit nationalists don't care about NI or Scotland anyway, so there's that. Perhaps in the long run it is for the best, but right now with the DUP just plainly refusing to really help plan for the eventuality it's going to get messy I think. SF and others are getting all enthousiastic, but I am sometimes not sure they take the people that are still distrustful really on board.

It is not an easy situation.

This thread has become a lot more tolerable since the politics to hoover ratio got changed

Hoolitics?

Broover?

Nothing sucks like a ... no-deal brexit scenario.

We bought this upright:

in 2015 for ~£80 new

Ok so can someone update me on what's going on right now, regarding the next 'milestone'? May is supposed to present the next version of her deal to Parliament again, right? (Which is the same as before, of course) Is there a date for that right now?
