Bosch cutting back too Sadly it looks like Bosch are also being affected! I wonder how this will affect manufacture and price in the future. Are we going to see even cheaper manufacture? My heart goes out to the employees! Rob http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/7738793.stm

Hi Seamus All my flats have been share of freehold which is much better than plain old leasehold. Basically the owners at some point must have acquired the leasehold. Which means they have to run their own affairs and have a lot more say in what happens. Lease landlords can be con artists...

Hi Paul I'm not going to bid on the Hottie and Gary is right Stanmore isn't too bad to get to. It's quite a nice part of London, I believe! I hope whomever got the 3110 is not disappointed, it looked a great machine, just a bit far from me. I'm not surprised it went for over £200. I think...

Hi Tom Great videos, thank you for sharing. As explained this has a unique motor. The two main differences I notice from this machine and my S218T are - A, this only distributes one way B, the spin takes longer to rev up (from distribution) My machine can jump sometime because the rev up is...

Hi Darren Great news! I really wanted this machine back in 1996 but they were totally sold out. It would be good to hear how you get on with it! I hope all is well with you otherwise. Rob

Hi Darren Great news, I am really pleased for you! I hope you really like your new machine. You'll have to let us know all about it when you get it. Rob

Hi Paul thanks for thinking of me! Unfortunately I can't get this. Is their a courier that could get this to you? All the best Rob

Diomede All the best with this, I can see this is a massive task! I sure it will look splendid in the end. I remember a few people that had this model in the early 80s. I believe it is the very same model in the David Bowie, Ashes to Ashes video. All the best Rob

Hi guys I think the fact that he needs to buy a bigger machine makes me wonder what this one is having to take. A bet close up it looks far worse! It's amazing what crap people try to sell on Ebay! Rob

Hi Nick Thanks for your comments! I have just about everything from old Mylene. I've like her since 1993 when she sang Que Mon Coeur Lache, at the music awards. I love her videos, which are like mini movies. I also like Brigitte Fontaine (completely crazy), Stereo Total and Etienne Daho. I...

Thanks for posting your vids! I just love the 80s! This is one of the campest acts around. Dalida was huge in the 70s and a real gay icon! She sadly committed suicide in the 80s. Here is her grave in Montmartre!

Here is another one, which is almost like a full movie. If you are interested there are loads of stuff on youtube on her, including concerts. Rob

Hi all I'm always fascinated by other cultures and languages. What have you got hiding in your World Music Collection? I'm a big fan of Mylene Farmer, a french pop star somewhere between Madonna and Kate Bush. She is of course a gay icon and has been going since 1984. Here is her most recent...

Hi guys A silly thread I know but I thought it was quite fun LOL! As Steve said, moderation in all things. I just wish it were true, I have no will power at all! Rob

Hi Louis Thanks for sharing, I love these old Bosch machines. I was watching a great video on youtube by Vampyrxy and you can see how well made these machines were. If I'm not mistaken, I am counting 4 suspension mounts and a further side suspension mount. Would love to own one of these but...

Hi all I got this today and just loved it! If only it were true! Q: I've heard that cardiovascular exercise can prolong life is this true? A: Your heart is only good for so many beats and that's it... don't waste them on exercise. Everything wears out eventually. Speeding up your heart will...

Thanks for the link Ash. I had a Servis washer dryer in 1999. It was about £329 and was quite well made for the money! It was unbelievably quiet and had a huge induction motor. It lasted about 7 years and my sister had it and really used it! Unfortunately the bearings let it down and it became...

Hi Paul Yes it's great isn't it! Nice and easy to move about, quiet, well made and does a great job! What else could you want! Rob

Vacuum Miele 4211 Last week I bought the above Lemon, compact Miele cleaner and it is quite simply great! My mother had one delivered yesterday and noted how powerful it was. I find you only need half the power! Nice and quiet too! Rob
