Man, what a bloody HOT day. Easily 90 F and humid. I had to go to a Home Depot on a work emergency for tomorrow so I asked Stanley to come along and we'd go Thrifting. First south to Woodstock where I walked into this at the Sally Ann just sitting there calling my name. I've never seen this pattern on a Canadian Electrolux wand: Anyone? It's pale yellow

This is the narrow 5 brush model and it all seems to be there in working order. Unfortunately on of the 'helper' guys was there and he was reeking of drink and stumbleing and decide to help me out. I was as diplomatic as possible to 'keep his gawd damn hands off it, please - I don't need no friggin' help". I was reaaly afraid he was gonna fall on it to tear something off. :-)

So we walked around some more but nothing of interest other than this Lady Sunbeam Hair Dryer that looks like a radio. I already have a turquoise one so it stayed behind. Stanley being from Prince Edward Island and the son of a Fisherman, collects rubber boots. he found two unworn pair and was hooping and hollering as though he'd found a vacuum. LOL

It was soooo hot the sweat was dripping in our eyes even with the car's AC on full...I'll be taking it in for a recharge this week, after all it is 10 years old. :-) Stanley kept calling out to take pictures of um, working gentlemen, so I did and then the battery died. Stanley took over the photo duties with his camera and I'll get those tomorrow.

I have that exact sheath save for the latch on the bottom, which I've never seen before. Oddly enough, it also came with an 89. | ||

Electrolux 89 Hoser LOVE. Aw shucks. :-) There was a superb Model 83 on Ebay today around noon that I missed because of work issues. When I checked in at 5pm it had not sold due to not reaching the reserve. 3 bidders, actually only 2. Then an email saying it was re-listed. My heart leapt for joy! I woulda beat that reserve. and it was listed as ships to USA and Canada. Clicked on the 'This item has been re-listed'... Now it says it is no longer available! ? Grrr. Dammit. Dave.
