Lie down . . . . less chance of it hitting you as well.

Had the Vax in bits again, stuck the new belt in just in case, nope, still not working. No obvious reasons, loose wire etc so suspect the motor has given up the ghost. Humped a "spare" hoover up from the garage, bl00dy brush bar isn't turning on it either Got one more old hoover in the garage, think I'll see if the brush bar works before I bring it up!
