I think we have turned this cloth bag soft bag hard bag into "bags at 40 paces" lol
Thread Hijack alert!

 

[vintagerepairer]

I am sorry if that is the case. I did not wish to do so. Sorry.

 

[jmurray01]

I'm confused as to what "bags at 40 paces" is ?

Benny, for me but I'll buy you some if you like, just forward me a cheque!

 

[madabouthoovers]

(Hand)bags at 40 paces - its an famous phrase Jamie! I'm sure other members know what it means lol

 

[vintagerepairer]

I have no idea what it means either. All I know is I am glad not to have heard the words '50 shades of grey' today.

 

[jmurray01]

Oh I see!

Well, what can I say, it's late and my caffeine level is dropping rapidly.

 

[jmurray01]

Oh I had heard of that book Benny, sounded like filth to me.

People are buying it in the thousands though, says a lot for today's world...

I don't actually understand the title either, I suppose I'd have to read it to understand. Which I won't be doing.

 

[alexhoovers94]

Then you will never know Jamie! Haha

sounded like filth to me

That's exactley what makes it BRILLIANT.

 

[jmurray01]

Maybe for you Chris, but I don't get any satisfaction from reading that kind of "stuff".

 

[turbo500]

Slightly off topic, but there was a woman on my train home reading 50 Shades the other day and she was quite clearly getting off on it. Some people need to get out more.

 

[jmurray01]

So they do Chris, so they do.

On the second photo of it clean, did you make the photo angle perfect so It looks like there is a soup can sticking up on the handle? its lovely and clean, and gone to a good owner

 

[vintagerepairer]

The soup can you refer to was actually an optional accesory for this model. It is rare to see one with this part, but as you can see in the photograph, it is designed to sit securly onto the handle and is useful during longer cleaning sessions in case the user became hungry and so on and so forth. Top of the range models also included a bracket on the rear to hold slices of bread.

 

[jmurray01]

Ha ha, I did not notice that.

The only Hitachi with a tin of Heinz built in!

I used to have one of these! It came with my last house & we used it for all the messy stuff then threw it out, what a shame. It was the 1300W one too
