My lover and I have a new addition to our home.
Henry.
Or, rather, Numatic International Henry, to give him his pedigree name.
He is not the most beautiful of creations.
But he has a reassuring robustness.
And a turbo suck beyond your wildest dreams.
He is the latest in a line of brothers and sisters who have failed to live up to their promise.
2 vacuums in under 2 years. One blew up. And the other gradually fell to pieces, ending in a final flourish from a brittle hose, now in two parts and beyond repair.
And he has become an instant hit in the Best household. Henry is our saviour.
My lover says he is a cult vacuum cleaner.
Which got me to thinking, you don't always have to be beautiful to get the job done.
Just as well eh?
