I’m back where I started
Jul 18th, 2007 by Granny
I could have sworn that the sitting room carpet was a brownish colour. After a run over with The Animal, up came a lovely pale green colour. It really does do the job on dog hairs.
My bone of contention is that although the diagram shows three options height’s wise - One for giants, a middle height and a height for dwarves, we couldn’t get it to lock in the middle one.
After a round of the house using the dwarf position, I done me back in (as Bertie would say).
I’m in agony.
Expect no prose for a very long time.
By the by, when did a household appliance become a suitable gift for a lady?
Help me here please.
Stick your Dyson, Grandad

“a suitable gift for a lady”
But you’re no lady - you’re my wife.
*Bud um tish!*
And where do you you want me to stick the Dyson.
Noooooooooo. Don’t answer that!
Suitable gifts for a lady about to celebrate a special Birthday.
Now let me see…
1 A weekend in a luxury hotel.
2 A full body Massage.
3 Breakfast served in bed for 60 days.
4 Chocolates, hidden in the ‘knicker’ drawer.
5 An evening outing to the Theatre or Concert Hall.
6 Chocolates in the ‘knicker’ drawer.
7 Champagne & Strawberries.
8 A full year’s subscription to a favourite Magazine.
9 A trip to Paris for lunch & a little shopping.
10 Chocolates in the ‘knicker’ drawer.
Forget the flowers, they are for hospital visits and graveyards!!!
Thank you, Grannymar.
I’ll have all of the above, with ribbons on.
Lol!
Granny,
I’ll trade you my old Panasonic and a couple of Hershey bars for the Dyson. My Panasonic looks like a vacuum cleaner is suppose to and it will suck ideas out of your head.
Well now that I think about it, I think I’ll just go buy myself a couple of Hershey bars and put off vacuuming until Sarturday
I’m more forgetful than a pirate in the Bermuda Triangle these days…
You’re the only woman I know who gets birthday presents several weeks before the day… if you got a Dyson as a runner up present, maybe you’ll get a scantily clad *tall* dark well-oiled muscle man to do the hoovering for you, for your birthday day? Here’s hoping!
He might do some polishing as well!!
It’s all right lads. Problem solved.
Grandad is giving me liposuction on my big day!
The suckage on the Dyson is great.
I’m selling tickets for the event. Bring Dettol.
Hey, you can make soap out of whatever you find in there, and sell it in Cully and Sully bowls! Just a thought.
You know how Himself feels about recycling. It’s going into the deep-fat fryer.
We’re having chips for birthday dinner.
After dinner use it to make the soap!
I’ll send you a bar for Christmas (if you don’t behave yourself)
I have never behaved myself and have no intention of starting now.
And folks call us Americans odd!?!? Since my birthday is aslo in mid August I shall do my best to avoid Ireland and all this sucking and greasy soap making but I may skype yous’ guys’ in the middle of the night. So give it up Granny! When is the big day?
Just because we recycle, while you lot with your big cars are responsible for Global Warming and all the non-stop rain we’ve had here for that last two months……
August 6th. Something small and shiny in a box will be just fine. Preferably over 35 carats.
I forgot to ask, Brianf - what date is your birthday? And do you like to sit at the fire purring, or do you prefer to sit on the walls between houses, like I do. Maybe we could purr together? Prrrrrrrrr..
The 23rd. The last day of. I prefer slinking down alleys.
