the bird was hoovering this morning when there was a puff of smoke and a bang....the hoover has kicked the bucket (an 18 month old dyson that cost over £250).
anyway it is a blessing in disguise because now i know what to get her for xmas.
well it beats the electric tin opener i got her last year.

Don't forget though - if you buy an expensive one and plan to bring it over, you (or she) will have to wash it out first.....! New criteria for purchasing a hoover, look for one thats easily washable!

On a serious note, I bought a dyson nearly 2 years ago for £280and so much has gone wrong with it, but luckily it had a 2 year guarentee with it, so it hasn't cost me a penny yet. Are you sure yours hasn't? You could but her something really nice then.
