    Good morning, mhoc would think it would be hard work with the short hand held as you would be on your knees ,you might be better with the longer wand type to hoover floors, I have a dyson one but it's ok but doesn't do dog hair very well:(

    Yes when our elderly Dyson died before Christmas I got the cheap vax from Amazon as a quick fix. I am getting used to it but I am not feeling any love for it
    What worries me is that the newest Dysons are not as powerful due to EU regs or so I've read and then I've also been thinking about Sharks ....
    And then we have the possibility of the builder finally coming back to us in April/May (don't hold your breath yet) and he is incredibly messy - I try and contain him in one room but he takes over the entire house, the porch and the entire yard as well ...

    Please can I ask if anyone has the AP restaurant vouchers - the £10 and the £20 ones - does anyone have a list saved of where they can be used?

    We are next to a Beefeater next weekend but the best that vouchercodes can offer is a 33% off voucher but it only seems to be main menu items.
    I know it sometimes has steak offers but I am not a steak eater.

    (Yes I am plotting to get OH out of the house so I need to have a complete plan that he cant back out of or find an excuse not to do :D )

    Mine is an animal 44, but Max's hairs are up to 5" and they just wrap around the brush bar so spend as long cutting them off:(, think the newer one with a soft bar would be better, my new dc41 came with an attachment that has counter rotating brushes, it's brilliant on the stairs:)

    Please can I ask of anyone who has these are they suitable for picking up cat litter wood pellets?

    We have 2 trays at night in different locations. By the morning the cats have danced in both and there is wood chip pellets all over the house, literally there are 4 rooms to vacuum before anything else gets done. And then there is OHs biscuit crumbs and coal dust.
    You can see I am talking myself into this ...

    :) My Dyson sucks them up grand :D

    That Sister improving by the hour :T

    Mouth ulcers turning black & 'decaying' which is all to plan.

    She has friends visiting her tomorrow so that saves me £70 train trip to stop her being alone - I'm going to Royal Mint on Wednesday so will visit her then instead.
    Only one week left of treatment :D:D:D
