    Rise and shine, morning folks,

    Cannot sleep, decided yesterday not to go car booting, now as I am awake so early wish I had of gone, but my neighbours will not like me packing my car to go at this time of the morning, and there will be no decent places left as you need to get there for 4.45am!!, so I guess I'll just have to be here and do the ironing!!

    Has anyone fitted a new hose on a dyson? Is it easy? I seem to be able to get one for £20 direct from dyson, much better than getting a whole new hoover as DH was talking about...also he wants a non upright which I hate!

    It is extremely easy - dear old Mr Dyson things of everything, it simply pops in. Go for it gal!

    Morning all

    BB has Been this morning, not much, but it's at least solid so that's good. She'll have more chicken and rice for breakfast to get her strength up.

    re the name thing - I remember it being eventually revealed that Inspector Morse's name was Endeavour!

    working in a school definitely alters your opinions of names.

    Round the corner there lives a girl called Araminta - known as Minty.....

    Thanks pigpen and soappie I'll give it a go! I couldn't see clips in mine but they must be there as it's the right model! Have you always just bought direct from dyson? I assumed it was best as it would be the genuine part!

    soappie - have replied! crazy!

    Crazy isn't one of the words I used to describe it. Most of my words couldn't be published on a forum.......

    Morning all,
    I should have knew the tv would be a bad idea, me and rhys couldn't sleep and hubby could. :rotfl:

    DS1 feeling better this morning and hopefully it stays that way.

    Rach i get all my dyson bits from ebay, so far 4 belts and 2 filters. Never has a problem.

    Pigpen same in our house with the toilet, DS2 actual be's looking round him when he goes and pee goes everywhere but the toilet.

    Triker hope your not too sore today.

    Soappie hope BB is ok today. Yep thats the stuff in the tube, it took a good few days to work tho for us but he got it after the traction accident. He was in a bad state with the runs.

    Best get the slow cooker on.
    Sometimes it seems that the going is just too rough.
    And things go wrong no matter what I do.
    Now and then it seems that life is just too much.
    But you've got the love I need to see me through.
    :j :j
  • piggers how about Caspian Merlin?? (yes really).

    Glad BB is feeling a tad better.
    Please do not confuse me with other gratefulsforhelp. x
