Guys

What vacuum do you use for your carpets, before the main clean?

Customers always give me funny looks when i wheel it in but it was manufactured in 1904. Nothing compares to it. It's been in my family for years.

That's a good one Darran but mine really looks the part when I go into old peoples homes and it really reminds them of the old days. I charge more using my 1904 model as it weighs 125 kg and is hard to take upstairs but me being a strong lad I can manage it. If you want to borrow it sometime I rent it out for £40 a day. I converted it to solar panels and runs like a dream.  :)
