the next Gtech TSV is on the 27/10/19
My first gtech AirRam mark 1 upright I got from QVC developed a fault about 18 - 24 months after I bought it. Gtech customer service were great and replaced it, apart from the dust collection bin and battery. I didn't like the small handheld multi I got with the package, though, very weak suction. When I decided to buy another one with the improved handheld multi(which was much better), I gave my original upright to my daughter. Earlier this year, I bought the mark 2 airram upright from Amazon and had already promised my older AirRam to my son. Big mistake. The new AirRam isn't a patch on the original. The suction isn't as good and I don't rate the 'improved' emptying system either, its fiddly. I much preferred how the original AirRam compressed the dust into bales for emptying. So, my son and daughter have a good AirRam each and I have a rubbish newer model:mysmilie_10:
Er Strato, I sincerely hope you aren't hoovering up spiders and putting them in the bin :mysmilie_10: I know you'll just be gently hoovering them and releasing them outside . . . . I love spiders and we have some in the house so big even the dog is wary of them :mysmilie_17:

STORY (CONTINUED)
In fact, I'd just got out of the bath, dried, then walked into the bedroom naked to dress.
Suddenly, a large spider dropped onto my shoulder!
Although I am not terrified of spiders, the shock made me jump, and I banged my shin with great force on the wooden frame of my bed.
This was very painful, was bleeding, and the scab was there for weeks, and the wound is still very visible.
I knocked the spider off, but it ran away, so is still in my bedroom somewhere [shock]
I'm not laughing, honest :mysmilie_17:

Yet again on a 'gift weekend' Q, feels it is entirely appropriate to have a Vacuum as one of the TSV's!
