It was just collecting dust...

Which of course is the punchline to the question "Why did I get rid of my old vacuum cleaner"?

A quick double header mission for Mrs M who also needed a new small vacuum cleaner as her previous one had stopped working - we'd done a bit of research on various websites, and she'd identified the type she needed. A further dash downstairs to Robert Dyas with cash in hand, and I was soon back with the model that she'd requested - hopefully this one will go on collecting dust for a good while yet...
