Having a coffee and then it's time to head home.
Going to leave early as I don't want to be caught up in Bank Holiday traffic leaving Norfolk, then hitting again when I get back to Clacton On Sea

Back to Acle again Friday

Morning all.

Another grey and cool start to the day. Still dry though and due to stay that way. Fingers crossed as loads of outdoor jobs to do.

Its not the belt Andy, I opened the thing up and was surprised to find the belt intact, even ran my finger around the inside of it to check for any stripped teeth, nothing Bit stumped, checked everything I can check, I've emailed Vax.

Our VAX hoover went the same way, Brush bar motor went kaput, We have a Vax unit in one of the old cotton mills here in Bolton, I said I'll ask online if there's a spare part for it but the Missus didn't want it repaired as she said it was too heavy to push. Just an excuse to get a new one.
I just use it in the garage now to hoover out the car.

Haven't emailed them back yet but the machine was my parent's one, came with the house! My conscientious father stapled the receipt to the manual, they bought it in 2012 so if it is goosed it doesn't really owe us anything.

Ging liked this Vax because it wasn't heavy . . . . not that she used it much, hoovering is my job! Got another vac in the garage, Ging didn't like it because its heavy, need to dig it out and give it a once over coz we need something with brushes for the girls hair.
