'Cos Hoover got in first I suspect.

My late FiL was very pedantic about such things. One "Vacuumed" , one ate a "meal" never dinner, tea or supper. He would ask "What are we having for our meal tonight?" He never wore a jumper or a cardigan but always a "Woollen"  Used to drive me up the wall  Banghead

I suppose it came of being a "Boffin" ~ he was a research chemist.

Stick, wrong end, definitely ...  evil:

They are being brought to ground if flying and stamped upon or, if stationary, Dysoned  razz: So now you are making paper out of them,how very original.

Hey, if you can hoover, why can't you dyson? ... specially with the nozzle attachments  eveilgrin:

My BIL takes great delight in hoovering flies out of the sky, this is a very delicate movement which involves fancy footwork and a high level of nozzel manipulation. He has a degree in cybernetics which helps IMHO.  It is fun to watch point and laugh though I hate to admit it, well that is our Christmas entertainment sorted for another year... whistle:

I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.

The Dyson nozzle attachment 72 step form has not yet been accepted by the Beijing Committee for Chinese Martial Arts. This is a lamentable omission and one that I will clearly have to work on during the winter months.

I might be some time  ;)

Children and their ability to lose just about fffing everything.

The Brat's dad has just been to collect her. Ask her if she has got everything ...yep she replies ..."hold on I will just get my bus pass as I have football on Sunday " 


45 minutes later and her room completely turned upside down - " must have lost it she says"  Shrugs:

She can only travel free on the buses if she has one of these  - they are ?10 to replace each time and this is the 4th one I will need to replace in about 9 months  evil: evil: evil: evil: evil: evil: evil:

I am not going to replace it for at least 2 weeks - make her feckin walk everywhere . She might take care of it better in future  Banghead

She won't of course.
You could look in her room yourself whilst she is away ~ take plenty of valium and collapso first.
