I don't like it because it doesn't resemble a handlbar moustache.

It's a little weird being able to communicate from heaven, I can tell you.

One of the things I can't get used to, and that's  that darned women's lib - sort it out fellas!  Wasn't like that in '42.

Chilly, but not as chilly as it was at 22,000'.  I had a big flask of coffee between my legs on the Essen drop and while that kept my goolies warm my fingers almost snapped off.

Got my MC for that.

Got to go, there's a scramble on, and I don't mean eggs!

Yeah and you shouldn't have used that name for your dog either!

Sorry, your Mossie ran out of fuel, Guy - bet it was a wizard prang to watch though!

Seems all the people who have slated them for their weight have gone quiet on the matter. Maybe they were not talking from experience & instead just repeating the words of a few. ;)

DJW- if had only one choice for general domestic work- superlite or vikan, which would it be?

I was told when starting out that the vican was a good brush.

I bought a vican + another with less dense bristles.

The vican collects dirt and small particals in the bristles and seemed to make the job hard work.

The other brush, which I can't remember the make of, seems to do a far superior job.

Got the vican out the other day as my old brush is looking past it. Found the same thing happened.

However I know some guys swear by them.

I must say that after using it once, on upstairs windows, it really seems to bounce around, it's nice for the frames, but it's difficult on the glass.

its vey "flicky" when doing leaded, leaving water drops all over the soffits above the windows (upstairs) i swapped back to my ionics dual trim today and this doesn't happen with their brush...... which annoys me because i think the vikon cleans the glass faster.
