Clipping the cord into the lower handle section. What I find odd is that the upper handle section has the cord holder on the opposite side, facing the front. |

Pushing the plastic pins into the handle to hold the two sections together...the pins are very stiff, making it MUCH harder than it looks! |

in happier times (their break-up was pretty nasty and very public -- lawsuits, s#!t-slinging, all the stuff that goes with being a celebrity.) |

Enjoy, Mike p.s. Seamus, £19 plus £12 P&P got mine for, I was using it as the daily driver but just switched over to the G5...just had a complete Kirby service & hall cleaned for £19, whilst he was servicing the G5 I got to grips with the Sentria.. |

Excellent additions to your collection. It's rare to find a 20 year old machine new in the box, but 4 of them--WOW! And Charles, interesting story about Alex and Ellen. With the last name Hedison, I'm wondering if she was related to the actor David Hedison who was on (if I remember right) Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea? Jeff |
