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.

from today's Guardian, obviously by a biter and twisted hack with no taste

� On the official Barry Manilow merchandising website, you can buy, for just $24.99, an attractive lightweight dog-coat bearing the words "Trust Me, My Owner's a Barry Manilow Fan". But only, we trust, if you really, really hate your dog.

Morning all The 'bad penny' here. I keep turning up don't I? Well I've had the decorator in all week doin' my landing stairs and hall. He's not as good looking as my gardener but a b****y good decorator! He's just finishing off today so he should be gone by dinner. Weather quite nice today and I hope it's the same for all of you. I don't know if I'll be out tonight yet but I will be tomorrow as I'm going to my nephew's wedding at a local golf club so that will be a change of scene. My son is getting married at the same place on August 11th so that'll be another outfit to buy! Anyway hope you are all well and happy. I'm getting there at last but I can't see me going back to work for a while yet I enjoy being off too much. See you later :o)

[netibiza]

How very dare you jno!

Morning jude how are you keeping - hope you are Ok.

[netibiza]

shaney and Robi are you both Ok? Missing you both.

[jno]

well, I wonder if you can get such coats in Neti size, perhaps in a nce Burberry. Hiya Jude, does your decorator do reclamation work on elderly faces? Bit of plastering and skimming, maybe a lick of paint and I think my architraves could do with some work too.

[Jude123]

HIya Well the decorators gone and the weather has took a turn for the worse and it isnow raining! Hope it changes for the wedding tomorrow.
Hello Neti I'm doing fine now thankyou but still not at work. I think it's called skiving in these ere parts.
And Shaney and Robi where are you today. Ok I hope.
Never thought to ask the decorator if he does 'reclamation' work Jno Lol I could do with some myself. The little lines on beginning to appear and I wish they wouldn't. Anyway I'm off now to practice my Tai Chi, take care all. :o)

Evening, possums!

Ha ha, when entering this Home & Garden section I misread the title of one of the recent questions, thought it read killing moose on lawns (but it said 'moss' of course.)

Nice to see you, Jude. I like several of the artists you mentioned earlier on, so will look into Katie Melua whom I only know by name, so far.

Yesterday I bought a new silver bracelet, made in India. I said "Thank you India", and later last night this old song came back to me... thank u

[DaSwede]

You've only yourself to blame Neti if we run into hiding when you enter the room. It's that whip thing you know, you keep forgetting to leave it in the umbrella stand as you hasten between different chat rooms. i'm not into that

Shaney, have you been flooded or what...?

[DaSwede]

my kind of whipping

Bye now, have a nice weekend, all!

[shaneystar2]

No not flooded just poorly ...I have had a nasty RA attack and have been in bed nursing my bones mostly ...I have had a browse round but felt so bloomin' rotten I ended up going back to bed ..in fact I have not long been up after giving in this morning again. It's easing off now though.Shaney has come out in sympathy and is hobbling around too ..I am going to dose myself up with some of his Vitapet shortly !
If I start to bark pay no attention.
Hope everyone else is OK ......xxx

[netibiza]

Ah poor shaney wondered what had happened to you - I've emailed Robi to check she's ok. Best thing for you to is too stay warm in bed. Is Mr S there to look after you? Take care - see you soon-

Now where is that Vinny?

<trundles in>

ooooh evening all,
.....is it the fusty air in this closet? I've been poorly too....felt like I was hit by a truck yesterday, couldn't even face a cuppa or a custard. Coupled with trying to deal with incompetents behind desks I'm pretty peed orf at the moment. How come we now have more methods of communication than ever before & yet it's too much trouble for people to use them?????!!!! grrrrr.....
on the plus side, my brother is now home & a little better but has a long way to go yet.

here's to better times for all

sorry I haven't been to feed your hawks Vinny....I'll give 'em double next week.....

[netibiza]

Morning all - hope you are better soon Robi I've emailed you.

jno that vat of chicken soup is known as Jews penicillin - and my dying bro-in-law is actually managing to sip some. It does work!

[netibiza]

where is Vinny' Has ze zuperbug got him again?

[Jude123]

Morning All Sorry to here Robi and Shaney aren't feeling so good. Get well soon both of you.
I've been to have my hair done and am now going to get ready for this wedding. I am wearing a thin dress with a little bolero top and it's quite cold over here but it's not raining so it might stay fine. See you later, I'm driving so wont be under the 'affluence of incahol' Bye for now :o)

[Robinia]

morning - well, only just...
thanks neti & a thwack for being sweti - it's very chilly here. Jude's obviously not as nesh as me, I'd be going in a woolly jumper & balaclava, if I didn't have rubber legs as I have today ....have a lovely day Jude!

'tis strange about Vinny....perhaps he's having trouble getting out of his
suit

[Robinia]

where's jno?!
I see you've been cussing in Media (Wogan) & have been asterisked...tut...tut!.... the shame on the biddy house...
