    How lovely @Palustris. I wasn't aware that you wrote. You must be thrilled.
    Good luck with it  :)

    Sounds like boasting, but I actually have 14 books in print.

    Yes. All books for children and I have another 5 or 6 stories just waiting to go to my editor.

    It's still so dark here @BenCotto that you'd need your headlights on if you were driving  :D
    That really is a nice one @KT53 :)

    @Fairygirl the company involved is Vax and I have nothing but good things to say about their customer service.  We'd only had the machine a couple of weeks when a felt strip on the power head came away at one end.  It was only a section about an inch long, and I contacted them to check that it would be OK just to glue it back on and that it wouldn't affect warranty if there was a problem later.  They said they would send a new head and for me to keep the old one.  The way things are going I will be able to build myself a 2nd vacuum cleaner. :D

    I've had a couple of Vaxs in the past @KT53 . Both were washer/vacuums. The first one was brilliant - especially with young children and pale carpets  ;)
    The 2nd one wasn't quite so good, but I still have it. All hard wood floors in this house though, so not needed so much. I just sorted out the cupboard under the stairs recently, and got the hoses etc out, so I'll make the effort to do the rugs this spring.  :)

    A back up machine would certainly be handy, so you'll need to keep mentioning 'problems' while it's still in warranty  ;)
