Free: Dyson Hoover (Summertown OX2) Gifted This Dyson is quite a few years old. It was working well, but now the charging unit charges, but the Hoover only runs for a bit. A friend of mine said he would have a look, he thought it was something electrical and fixable. But he never does and now another friend has given me her old one, because she has a new one. SO I am releasing this into the wild of Freegle. If anyone who is more tekkie than me wants to have a go at mending it? Or parts might be useful??

The Bambi characters are oldest and have all got some damage, badly mended (although a friend who is handier than me says you can get it off and start again). The Lady and the Tramp family - Lady and Scamp are perfect But Tramp is missing a leg. Person who will take them all will get them - I can't throw even the damaged ones away!
