Has anyone got one? and if so can you please tell me how the shampooing bit works, I have managed to soak all carpets and not a drop has been sucked up. My main confusion is do I have to switch between showering water, and sucking up in the same operation? I too scared to try it in case it blows up! Easy instructions please and thank you.

hehe...!I ducked....erm..thats the ED shaney.....(:O)
okay Biddies, as we are here in Home & Garden... Our neighbour planted a pretty little pyracantha shrub years ago about a foot from our kitchen wall. As it is now nearly 20ft tall and I fear for our foundations, I have just cut it down (neighbour agreed). But what do I do with the stump to stop it growing again? Can't remove it as it's probably halfway under our kitchen by now. Can I put some sort of poison on it? Hope some of you young Crippens can help.
Drive some nails into the stump....this will kill it. Those long roofing nails.Or some of

this

worked on the wretched eucalyptus we cut down. Most garden centres will have some sort of stump killer .
Pyracantha is the spawn of the devil...horrid prickly stuff .We had a bush at the front which we had to get rid of when we had new windows put in . The nails worked a treat although it wasn't quite as high as yours !!! After a month or two I just heaved the stump out with no problem.
<methinks we are seeing a different side to mrs scrubbit - must be a side effect of all that dampness....first she pretends to not understand Vinny's 'the old ones are the best' joke in order to get me going....now she's giving tutorials on shrubicide.....

tiptoes out > > > > > >


<oh lordy 'tis a full moon tomorrow - that'll account for the rising tides but heaven knows what shaney will be chopping off......>

Wet and coldish over here this morning -and Mr N is home for the week - grrrrr! I love him dearly but not under my feet all the time. Loved the joke Vinny, must dash and rattle pots and things in kitchen so Mr N thinks I am always busy. Daughter home tonight - grrrr!
yes neti, I've always thought that women should live in communes & send for the men occasionally....

......if & when...... ;o)
oh heck....BAZ on the wireless!.....> > > > > > > > >
Well well well, you introduce a few grape-stompers and all the trolleys come out... I don't know where you get your energy, girls, personally I'm tired.

Ha ha, no, personally I'm a spinster. Anyhoo! Shaney and jno, you both need to make a trip to Clas Ohlson to buy some of these miraculous 'diapers', intended for defrosting - but equally as handy for washing machine leaks I imagine. They absorb five litres in just a couple of minutes, never seen anything like it. Oh wait, sorry, credit where credit's due, plumb forgot about you Vinny. / That's for "where's Kip when you need her he he he." Before I heard your evil laughter I'd already gone over all my online dictionaries including Google image with a fine tooth comb in search of a piecost. Now you wear this, mister. No, wait, da dumb swede, your mistake again...!

But I do love van Gogh and Don McLean both. I was gonna post this, from the same album. (How can you not like Don McLean, Dolly? Impossible question, I know.)

Robinia, if you're done with the grape-stompers I'll send another Swede over to deal with your annoying neighbour, shall I. / Awwww, the otters! When they take each others hands again...! We're gonna need canned awwwws as well, possums!
PS The 'diapers' are no April Fools', they are great! I see Clas Ohlson open in London next year. Over here they're as big as IKEA, so I'm looking forward to all the Clas-jokes to come...
