My toys

[Timey]

Thought I'd show you my toys. I just buy things that appeal to me and then spend forever trying to get hem back to how they should be. The exception is my Hooverette, which came as seen in it's box, complete with book and its original bags in their own original bag! The 1346v2 will be getting the proper bellows reinstalled this month, and the Ranger will take a while to get to where I want it. Love this forum, by the way, so much to learn and see!

Instead of trying to upload pics, here's a link to my Hoovers album on Photobucket...

p.s I'm guessing your a Dr Who fan;o)

Thank you, and indeed so. Use my DW props with charity fundraising group to raise money for Dog's Trust and charities for terminally ill kids. Eleven vacuums so far, but I'm probably going to get rid of anything that's not a Hoover, in the not too distant future... so the Vax, the Dysons and the Oreck may well go.

"The place is littered with Who and Hoovers... "

You could combine the two and call it your Whover collection...

all the best people like Hoovers and Doctor Who

Ooo, Very nice vacuums!
And what dyson might that be?

I must truly be terrible then...

(Star Trek & Sanitaires for me!!!)

 

[Timey]

Daleks and Dysons and Dogs, oh my!

I like Trek - I like most sci-fi, but Doctor Who, and Superman, will always win on my personal list.

The main Dyson is a DC18 Slim Allergy. I don't like it, honestly. I think I'll stick to my Juniors... the eldest of which has just gone to have it's old collar and bellows reinstated...

How much was you thinking of selling it for?

Oh, I don't know. Something huge, like... £25... Didn't cost me a great deal, so not going to charge a lot for it. God alone knows how we'd get it to you if you wanted, and it's not boxed or anything. It's just sitting abandoned in the kitchen... works well though!

1346 restored!

Got the Junior back today after it's retro-refit, and loving the way it looks now. Proper old school as it was when it was when my Mum bought it new in 1969!
