Sebo Maybe a reconditoned Sebo would suit the bill?

Wow! You have a lovely house John, I love the wood everywhere, the floors, the window frames!   Now, where are all the Hoovers???

Our house. Our house is a typical 1970's 3 bedroom semi like lots that you see nowadays. Normally the houses like ours have long driveway's with a freestanding garage at the end, but ours has been extended, with the garage built in level with the front of the house, allowing for a slightly...

Well. Your house Chris looks virtually identical to the one's near me, even down to the little balcony things that you can't walk on. The only difference is the ones near us are made from modern bricks that all new houses are made from, whereas yours looks like Yorkshire Stone, and looks nicer...

Homes. I love upside-down houses Chris, there's some newer style townhouses built about eight years ago near me like that, with the garage at the bottom. It gives the house a bit of individuality.   We stayed in an upside-down house some years ago on holiday in Scotland. It had the kitchen...

Tayyab... Sorry for the confusion, I meant to type 'aware' but typed 'away' by mistake. Problem now rectified.   Yes, in a few months time BBC Three will be 'online only' so probably through iPlayer.

Well I don't know if you're aware Tayyab, but BBC3 are whistling down their content as the BBC are getting rid of BBC3 as a TV channel to become an online only channel.

Off topic I know it's a bit off topic, but what a bunch of losers these people are.   If they think that they can live independently, then I'm the Pope.

Well Well Well! Another fake Dyson has emerged, this time a brand new one! Labelled as a 'DC49', clearly not though.   Not planning to spend £50 on one!   http://www.gumtree.com/p/vacuum-cleaners/dyson-vacuum-hoover-/1121026777

I know that these are getting hard to come by nowadays, especially one that appears to be complete, whereas some have replacement parts.   http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DYSON-DC03-VACUUM-CLEANER-WITH-TOOLS-/261931342833?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item3cfc531bf1

EE It's Stan and Hilda's English Electric Liberator.

DC14 Is that DC14 a special edition as I have never seen one before with that blue colour cyclone.

Nice machines. They were great machines, we had a similar variant over in the UK. Even though front loaders make up around 98% of washing machine bought in the UK, Hotpoint made traditional top loading style machines for 20+ years until about 1998/1999. My grandmother had a Hotpoint 9605...

Citroen Maybe seanc was on about a different episode of Watchdog, from when the machines were new, not the Rogue Traders report a couple of years ago.

Hoover Wow, that is a lovely Hoover, and indeed a lovely Zanussi as well!   My grandma had one of those TP Juniors years ago, so I'm on the look out for one in the future!

DC05 I managed to get a DC05 'Absolute Plus' for next to nothing a few months ago, due to a cracked handle. It must be a weak point on the DC05's as I have seen pictures of them before where the handles have indeed snapped.   Apart from that it's been a good workhorse. My only gripe with it...

Michael Absolutely smashing restoration there! Even though by the end of the 90s they were budget machines, they were way better than the budget machines we have now!   Well done!

Citroen Do you like Citroen Bx's by any chance Citroen?   If you get one in the future, watch out for things like this happening.    

Wow! Tried it with a DC03 I have lying around and it worked! Same model type and everything!   Will this help determine dates of production etc?

Scans Its good to keep hold of old catalogues for reference.   I have Argos 1999, 2001, 2002, 2004, 2007 and 2010- onwards, as well as two Tesco ones from 2011 and 2012.
