RB hoses

Have just unpacked a new Dyson vacuum cleaner and I reckon the hoses off one of those would be spot on for RB use. Really flexible, doesn't collapse and appears to be polyurethane so should be tough as old boots. Plus it's clear so you can see the cocktail heading your way. And I'm sure the cannister would make a great scrubber too. In fact, I might make a WozBreather out of one. The Dyson DC08.

Mate. Surely it's a bad idea to be advertising this fact given that you live so close to Digger. Those hoses are bound to 'mysteriously disappear' sooner or later.

Laters,

Well having just bought a whole YBOD hose and mouthpiece assembly so I have a fallback in the box if the DSV breaks I think I paid less for the Dyson.

I was reading a bit in a magazine yesterday about Dyson. Apparently they use prisons instead of assembly lines as it is cheap labour. Now trusting something Digger has built is one thing, but trusting something built by a triple murderer with scout badges in burglary and arson is something else... just a thought

Having seen Digger's effort close up I reckon you would have a longer life expectancy jumping in a bath with a Dyson all plugged in

if you did make a RB out of a dyson and managed to get a power supply in there with it could u suck all the air out of your lungs or blow everything back into them. Therefore no longer needing to use your own muscles anymore. Can u also imagine digger swagering down to the waterside with nothing but a dyson slung under his arm and telling everyone that he was off to do a bit of cleaning.

This also brings me onto another discusion i was having the other day about how the scylla has got really dirty recently and someone needs to go down there and do a bit of cleaning. before u know it you will be letting wildlife and stuff ruin a perfectly good wreck. I especially think divers with big hoover and a little pinny would be great.

Not our prisons. Prisoners do make things which are sold to the outside world, but there are rules to make sure that people using non-prisoner labour aren't undercut.

Maybe abroad though?

Laters,

You know, i have this strange compulsion to try and build a breather myself. Worrying really, since i have no idea what to do.
