Just looked up ‘Spitfire Soft Sliders’ and this popped up in the results.
Might as well pull the trigger on this instead as it’ll probably get more use.

Had two traveler kids come into the shop today armed with notepads and pens. They walked straight to the back of the shop, took hats and bags off the shelves and put them on, and when I asked them what they were doing they said 'We’re auditing your shop we need to take these hats and bags to check ‘em’.

Lol. They got the boot cheeky little twats. Told them to go and try it in the bank.

Kind of, I took them back haha. It was pretty funny but also I don’t want it to become a regular thing, it’s a nightmare when you get people like that coming into the shop on the regular.

Had a guy called ‘The Goat’ who was into cross-dressing, coprophilia and GG Allin, he used to come in all the time and just scream as loud as he could. He ended up stealing a wedding dress from our friend’s shop and we banned him so he stole our wallieable sign and threw it in a skip :laughing:

Ever see him in the dress?

There used to be an old semi homeless skinhead around Birmingham called Goat, he’d cadge cigs and stuff but he was alright. Heard he drowned in the fountain in Centenary square after falling in pissed.

No they got it back because we told him we knew he’d nicked it. Don’t suppose they sold it after he’d had it though!

He used to regularly skate Spit and Sawdust, I saw him break his leg there once. Apparently he got the boot for skating with his tackle hanging out because he was in a mini skirt with no underwear. I know that sounds very unhip but it was the kids sesh.

RIP Birmingham Goat.

At the local conservative (forgive me father) club for a family friends 60th birthday and it’s MEGA Phoenix Nights.

In-between songs the DJ dropped his sound bite which was in the style of “DJ KHALED”, however was instead “DJ GARY” and its safe to say I was dying with laughter :joy:

Went to my local to drop a couple of things off for the local yoot/park. Ended up chatting shit for a couple of hours. I didn’t take my set up as I’m still a bit rough at the moment. It was nice to get out.

What does the forum hive mind recommend re cordless vacuum cleaners please? Not little ones, the one you use as main vac. We have mostly hard floors and the odd rug, and also want to vacuum the car.

Cracking and need to get one v soon

Pls post pros/cons/gotchas

We got a shark. Not sure of the model, but wasn’t expensive. Much much better than a Dyson.

Yep Shark to Dyson is night and day. We got ours a couple Christmas ago (Jesus) and paid £150

We recently got a shark and it’s decent. Don’t know about long term because one thing Dyson have going for them is that they are endlessly fixable, you can usually get the parts. Still use Henry for cleaning the cars, though.

This was the one: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B093W7RLYT

Shark here too.

Why is the Shark better than the Dyson? @Garlicnaan @navitronic
