Yeah, incredibly harmful to his profits and chance of further peerages. Fuck off to Singapore and stay there ye blustery old cunt, no one wants your overpriced vacuum cleaners.

Henry Hoover for life

One smiling sucky sucky boi

I love my Henrys. Beautifully simple, made in Somerset, and if they do break, every part can be swapped in 30s without tools.

Didn't know they were made in Somerset, my love for them grows

There was an episode of “inside the factory“ about Henry. Worth a watch if you can find it

Hetty Hoover here, slightly smaller and pink - oo-er - but £40 cheaper. Just as good.

Just wish I'd bought one years ago and saved myself a small fortune in vacuum cleaners.

We've got a Hetty and a Henry, one for the house and one for the garage. I haven't managed to get them to breed successfully, although they will both probably outlive me anyway so I don't really need another.

If I knew you irl I would SO be making a baby hoover and hiding it next to your current hoovers

Lupe is really good. Created by ex Dyson engineers who fucked off start their own company. Bonus that one of them is an EU citizen as well.
