    I've had dysons, vax, Bosch . I recently bought a Henry with my nectar points. I'm really pleased with it. I had to buy a set of turbo attachments things to make it easier to push but that only cost £30. I'm really pleased with it.
    In London. Keen but lazy.

    A plastic outdoor mat with prickles, designed to clean the mud off your wellies - not!

    I'm never going to buy anything with pickles again. I already have a holly Bush and a roll of Velcro

    Well maybe but other prickles are available. 
    I have corrected my error but it will live in perpetuity thanks to your quote😊

    Our Dyson was pretty pathetic but we persevered with it. It's replacement in the end was a g tech and it made us think how good the old Dyson was.

    A pasta maker (or to be more accurate a pasta roller). Been used twice. Even fresh pasta is still relatively cheap to buy (dried is even cheaper) and you don't have to wash the roller gadget up - or the bowl/worktop in/on which you made the dough.

    Love my Dyson cordless and my Dyson hairdryer - even if it did take me 2 years to pluck up the courage to spend that amount on a hairdryer....
    Heaven is ... sitting in the garden with a G&T and a cat while watching the sun go down
