In all seriousness, we have a cordless Dyson animal thing to whip round quick - good with the dog hair for a quick clean.
But then have a Sebo plug-in upright which really gets everything. Big and heavy, but proper job. They use them for cleaning in the hotel and airline industry apparently. Worth the money - it’s 5 years old now and like new.

Us du av an ole Dyson mains powered upright oover an ee will clean any blimmin fing. Powerful as eck wivva huge waste bin. Will clean whole house including cocker hair. But swmbo likes the batttery ones and they are as much use as a cardboard wetsuit. No power, no capacity, filters block in seconds. Only thing that Great Big Granddaddy 240v Dyson can’t really du is sweep chimbley an fer that us as Henry. He does all the really crap jobs, no fail, no complaints, cheap bags, easy tu use.
 
The stuff that goes onto it away from the rings is easy enough to clean off, well reasonably, but if anything gets onto the rings and gets even slightly cooked on, it is a stinker to get off especially without then scratching the lovely shiny glass looking surface.
I thought we'd had this convo before!!;)

Or maybe these things, dunno never tried them.
If you get one!

Yer you have jogged my memory I do remember talking about this, so I will give the induction a miss. Ta much ;)

The "Dyson Animal thing" was what we had before and nope it didn't pick up the finest dog hairs. so NOT good with all dog hair. It coped OK before we got the last dog.

The one I was on about was a mains Animal (Dyson). I thought it was quite good and it was OK with all but the latest dog's hair as I have already said. But her hair is mad thin, not like a normal cocker at all, yet her pa won the Polish equivalnet of Crufts, or it may have been another ex-eastern bloc country, her sis has gone on to be loads of champions. and they all had the same hair so it must be withint the breed standard.
All weird really..
 
As it is now gone half past one I can ring the orspicle to get my mobile number changed as W gets fed up of getting texts that just say "Dear patient" and it could be me or her. I hate using my mobile so much that I always give her number. 🤣🤣 and the n umber is really easy to remember!!
Went for a flu jab today, the V attractiver nursy type giving it me said "Oh, someones been her beofre, you've got a bruise" Yep sez I, Covid. so she slipped it in so nicely I didn't feel a thing. I joked with her "Have you done it?!" "Yes" she says, I can do it again if you like!" To which I said "Under other circumstances that would be a lovely offer I would take you up on!"

Bet I get struck off my doc's list now.

Though she did laugh!
Have a good arternoon folks!
:):):)
 
...that I have completely wasted this afternoon.
With the upcoming budget we decided that I should put some dosh into ISAs.
Now finances is not my thing but W looks after her dosh very well so I take her advice.
So I tried to log on to Barclays website to look at my accounts. I never use them just leave dosh in there.
Could I open the flipper? Could I heck as like.
Eventually after making about 50 choices on the phone keypad I get to talk to a wimmins in Sri Lanka or somewhere. She tried to help but no, nothing doing.
So she is sending me brand new login stuff.
Which will take 10 days, so the good deals will be over by then.
Grr!
Never mind sez I and goes onto the websites to find the best places giving the best rates, one of the very best is HTB, but they are an "online only" bunch.
So I decide to open an account. All went well until they were supposed to send a verification code.
It never came. not in Spam, not in Corned Beef not in Inbox, nowhere, mon frere.
So I try to contact them, (fall about laughing) and eventually find an email address, "additionalsupport@......etc".
Fired off an email. and of course what drops into my inbopx a short while later? Mail delivery fault, bad email address.
I think it may be because I only have one normal current account the joint one with W and have other accounts in various places that both I and we use for other stuff. And the account I gave them was one with a sort code, a cheque book, a debit card and an account number but it wasn't technically a "current" account. As if it flipping matters where the dosh is coming from, it'll only be one payment.
God I hate tech!
You couldn't make it up.
And it's raining.
The evening can only get better!
Have a good one folks!:):):)
