Thanks BM I hope you are right and that they get booted out.
Thanks BC.
I think my cat has fleas again so I need to spray stuff and wash stuff and then get stronger flea treatment when the vet opens Monday. No idea where the flea comb is. Such is the glamorous life of a pet owner. I treated him with the front++++ stuff around the 7th so disappointed.Achieve FIRE/Mortgage Neutrality in 2030

They have a need to demonise others, they have now had a serious go at migrants despite the fact that the majority are legal & not illegal as they always imply, they've had a go at pensioners & now it is the sick for whatever reason. As for the threat to set crapita onto issuing sick notes, well words fail me.

The black mould won't go with just the spray- I believe it needs to be killed with white vinegar or bleach.
I will be getting a Henry Hoover when I can because it is the most powerful and simple to use. However it is very loud.
I currently have a dyson which I don't recommend as it is not very powerful and has way too many moving parts. Spend more time cleaning it then it does cleaning.3 -
I loved my dyson until it got too heavy for me. Obviously IT didn't get heavier my right side/back got dodgier. I should have got the same sort when it needed replacing then DS would still be doing the vacuuming. I confess to not liking a friends Henry.

I don’t like Henrys, they hurt my back. I like the look of the shark someone linked too but does it need emptying a lot?Mortgage OP 2025 £6200/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Henry's have great suction but are heavy. I prefer a Dyson as it is less taffy so at least it gets used...
Hope you got to grips with cat's fleas?If you have built castles in the air, your work should not be lost; that is where they should be. Now put the foundations under them
