Seems we all have our crosses to bear, Keith.
You have one very talented vacuum cleaner, there.

Yeah because since I'm now travelling solo I have never really got to grips with that feather duster stuff.
Thanks for your condolences guys - need some beers now before I plunge into the dustbag to find my door......
Superglue is now on my horizon, ciao Paulo..... and Dougliness....

Keith,
Ferrari has been getting its doors blown off by Ford people for years, trust you to come up with a new method !
Guess it will put a new twist on the old saying" Eat my Dust".
Happy Hunting.

Jac Mac | Blown off? It was sucked off man....
If you'll pardon the expression 
Got it back and also found the 'Q' key from my keyboard that's been missing awhile. There obviously more to this dusting deal than I bargained for. Have a good weekend guys......

What normal person would want a car that to get in and out of you have to be a contortionist, if you don't duck when closing the door you risk being scalped, is so noisy you cant hear the radio, is a cop magnet and the neighbors now call you that noisy bastard.
Nah we're not normal. Great isn't it?
