  • What do you do that nobody else does?

    I was vacuuming this morning and thought to myself, I bet no-one else does this, as I sucked the crumbs out of the electric toaster.

    So what do other grapes do that you don't think anyone else would? (Clean answers only please )

    I hoover out the bath - never use it so it just gathers fluff and needles from the asparagus fern that trails into it.

      I vacuum the cold ash out of the hearth, because it's easier!

        I get all the fluff and dust from between the fins on the radiators. Don't half help with the efficiency.

              Or is it just that while the hoover's out, we do everything we can with it and leave the rest? My radiator fins (who knew they are called that?) are thick with dust because they have a grille on the top with slots far too narrow for the nozzle of the vaccuum, or a duster on a stick or anything.

                He he he. I hoover the toaster too Tisn't houseproud (no-one could see my house and accuse me of that...) it's just the quickest way of sorting out that burning crumb smell that sets off the smoke alarm

                  So its not the efficiency of the radiator that is improved, but SWMBO's gentle touch

                    Re#7.

                    The tops usually just flip off. if you want to be idle and I do! Use a can of compressed air blown in the top vacuum underneath to catch the mess.

                      I once had a cast iron rain water pipe completely blocked with stuff growing out of the top. I unblocked it with a CO2 fire extinguisher with wet rags round the spout to give a seal. The column of mud rose 20 feet in the air then mostly landed on me.

                            Glad to see that I'm not the only one to use the word Hoover instead of Vacuum - I thought it was a local word because the Hoover factory was a few miles up the road from here........
