A new vacuum cleaner

April 29th, 2006 - Posted by Alan Howard

Due to Deidre’s allergies, and how badly they’re affected by the house we’re in, we agreed to ‘invest’ in her health. As a result, I bought a secondhand Kirby vacuum cleaner. It’s a model that I used to sell from 1990 - 92, but the real value of it is that it really cleans the carpets and gets the dirt and dust out of them (as well as lounge suites, curtains, beds and pillows, and all kinds of other stuff). I’m hoping that Deidre’s health will improve as a result of the new, super-charged cleaning I’ll be doing.

Two years of selling them, and cleaning other people’s houses while trying to sell them, makes me an expert on using them. They’re a pleasure to use! And now we have one of our own.

    Cats are part of her allergies. So is dust, pollen, etc.
