The goblin 701 you got lurking in there as well :)
Nice collection there, will be doing something similar there myself. Love the record players too :) I have a similar Hacker myself On a slightly different note, what sort of insulation have you got there please as that's something I want to do before putting cleaners up in my loft. Is it pinned to the rafters? Al |

of questions to answer.Well first of all the purpley cylinder thing is a morphy richards [my shed vac] it will suck up anything and has a cloth bag so its easy to empty and bung back in i have to say i abuse this machine teribly but it refuses to stop working.The coffee can is a 700 this machine belonged to my grandma back in the early 30s she cleaned house for a steel manufacturer up in the middlesbrough area when Mrs steel man upgraded to a brand new hoover 612 she gave the old 700 to grandma who used it till she died sometime in the 80s thats when i got it .The Goblin 701 has great suction but an auckward bag arangement and the blue leatherette refuses to stay on no matter what glue i use .most of the carboard boxes have Electrolux machines in them apart from one that contains a Hoover Conquest that was used and abused by my mum while its working and has all its atachments its in a bit of a mess .the insulation is bog standard stuff with the plastic sheet stapled onto the rafters and i have to say its always quite comfortable up there no matter whats going on outside cheers guys
