Thread: Buying a new Vacuum cleaner

Dont tell me he's getting in touch with his feminine side :eek: :eek:

I still don't understand? what's wrong with using the household vac in the shed? SWMBO got really, really, really, (I mean) REALLY!! cranky when I was sucking sawdust/savings into the vac. I even put it back in the cupboard. Then there was the calculator but I won't go into that....

Vacuums are used inside the house now ? I must have missed that, better tell Mrs G

and this is in the jokes section because..........?

or have i missed something?

Feminie side? not likey! It's the keep-SWMBO-happy-as-she-doesn't-have-a-shed-yet I think.

Ian007 - No offense taken. It's in the jokes section, because I'm female and should be quite capable of buying a vacuum cleaner for the house and it's a lovely play on "roles" that HWMNBO picked it, bought it and uses it, not me. Oh, and it's a true happening.

Fair enough

And 50 married men arrived at the pearly gates, St Peter greeted them and said 'right, all of you who are henpecked go over there' 49 wandered over, St Peter addressed the solitary male and said 'why do you think you are not henpecked?', 'because she said I wasn't' he responded.
And another thing, sorry, can't stop now, she's calling...................

I don't know if this will make any sense at all in an Australian context, but..
'"Boooiiinnnnggg" said Zebedee, Oh! Pi$$ off said Florence"'

In short, this femini... Aaaarrrghh (Girl (ex)Friend just grabbed my throat))

RR: No offense

It's just that altogether far too much "male bashing" take place hereabouts to (i.e. Oz) put up with...

Cheers!

Which end of Dougal is front and which is back?
Or do we adopt the Billy Connolly approach and drop a dog biccy so when one goes down you know which end to kick.
And what does an animated dog have to do with RR or vacuum cleaners for that matter?
Times for pancakes (fully clothed) and coffee I think.

The reason for so much "male bashing" is ...............................men deserve it!

A few days later he sends me down to Retravision to by a vax - problem solved, he picked.

Good choice I got one 6 years ago to do the roof cavity before I put the attic ladder in did a great job got well over a ton of dust ,dirt etc........ and then moved it to the shed where its in use as the main dust collector, never missed a beat and I still do the rugs occasionally with the wet shampoo attachment
HWMBO not only made a good choice but he solved the problem he " went to the store , picked out a suitable product and made the Decision"
Didn't do the SHMBO will I wont I does it come in any outer colours etc...etc...

And for this men get bashed ???
