Haha it kind of reminded me of a pub, although it is missing the usual pub carpet patterns.

P.S I love Pub Carpets.

My room was all white. With wooden floor and mahogany furniture.
I had it the same from when I was around 9 until 18 when I moved out.

Back onto my subject for a moment please,
My DC04 YDK is quite noisy during spin down, I think its a bearing, since the motor siezed up one day when it was out of the machine a couple months ago.
Anyone know what I could do?

New motor

Yeah I have an Ametek I could stick in him, But the YDK runs fine for now, Might even rob my DC07's motor since the 07 is half dead :dead-dyson:
