NOT THE LAUNDRY POST, BUT ...

 I had fun today doing the vacuuming.

No, I haven't gone doolally or joined Robert in his commercial cleaning activities. I tried out the internal vacuum system in the house.


The Old Girl has been using it but it's the first time that I've given it a go. It works very well. There is a main 'engine' on the ground floor in a cupboard below the stairs. This drives the system that has plug-in outlets on each of the three levels. It is powerful with that added advantage of not having to drag a vacuum cleaner around which is a plus when cleaning the stairs.

I enjoyed using it but suspect that the excitement will rapidly wear off and it will become another chore. Hey ho.

What a post!

Sorry, I meant,
"What? A post?"

You just can't please some people.

A vacuum post?
I guess we'll just have to suck it up.

At least your jokes are getting better.

Be careful of making sweeping statements.

I used to get told off for yanking the hose out too quickly. Evidently unless you remove it carefully you might damage the sensitive parts.
