Random musings and general banter.

Been going over a 100 years a british success story.


Yeah so successful it needed to be resurrected.

The stick vac is £69.99 from Debenhams. I thought Rediffusion rented out TVs years ago.

They did, but like a lot of old brands they failed. But EPE international (wholesaler/distributor) have brought the brand name back, stuck it on loads of Chinese products and hey presto we have loads of household products from a 100 year old brand, as Mason would say, must be good quality if they've lasted this long.

Oh another fan for sale. Each new fan is the best they have ever sold.

As Hammy said, a ceased to be company name brought back with absolutely no connection to the original company. I didn’t see the presentation in full, so I hope they weren’t going on the ‘heritage’ kick?

 

[Hammy60]

Oh another fan for sale. Each new fan is the best they have ever sold.

Every product they sell is the bestest ever, super phenomenal quality at the lowest ever market beating price, must have multi buy.

Do you need to even ask the question, it's IW, so of course history and heritage is going to be part of the sales patter.

When I want to buy an old TV channel franchise, I’ll go with Rediffusion 100%. When I want to buy a vacuum cleaner, I’ll stick with Dyson.

What's next? Radio Rentals fan?
Not only is it not a radio, not only is it not for rental, not only is the best fan ever - unless you count the previous one or the next one for sale, alright, ok

 

[Battiola73]

Maybe Peter is on Holiday Natalia is on between 6 and 10 tomorrow night

Must be fright night then

 

[Battiola73]

Why do they need two presenters, Torchy and Motormouth, to sell a pack of batteries that you can buy cheaper from Amazon or Poundland?

Perhaps they both run n batteries? Both could be like the Duracell bunny, only difference is that the bunny eventually stops unlike these two.

Every day in every way it's getting better and better.

I've heard the Rumbelows fan is very good...

 

[Lord Helpus]

I've heard the Rumbelows fan is very good...

And it's only £17/19s/6d.

And it runs on North Sea gas...

I switch on expecting the Plinky Plonkie Plonkmeister and I get Tannoy Gob wearing my grandmother’s curtains. Switch off.

Joanne is flogging what she calls my "walk all day" shoes to go with her "talk all day" mouth.

I think she's a Boer (and a bore).

 

[Lord Helpus]

Maybe he’s taken Bet to Blackpool for the weekend, Sun, Sea and Sexy Times

Yeah he'll be happy with his little bit of Blackpool rock.

And with his little ukulele in his hand.

You Bet.

I read that entirely wrong - I thought it said Blackpool c*ck

Some people are genuinely unwatchable And for me - she is one of them. She doesn't have a conversation. She stops for breath while the other participant gets some words in edgeways. I can't stand that harsh, grating South African accent in general, but when you have a South African accent generating from somebody who comes across as completely self-obsessed, totally disinterested in anything other than her own voice, then that is a recipe for a complete visual and audible disaster. If I see her by accident (like today), for the sake of my own wellbeing, I switch off immediately. Other than that, I am quite warming to her of late.

We all stand corrected - the best way to create a meal of raw meat is with an electric skillet.
So bin the air fryers. airfryer/microwave combos etc.
This is the way to fritter away more cash - ave a buy

I'm saying nothing! (Just thinking it)
