Have you tried most Dutch cheese?

They were very common in God's County during the Industrial Age, probably because they were cheaper than leather shoes and wore much more slowly!
No wonder people see us as being tight-fisted.

A well known smuggler walked over the border, bike in hand. The customs officer checked the man's pockets, his shopping bag, nothing! Next day, same story. That went on day after day.
Years later the custom's officer has long since retired and meets the smuggler in the pub. Bud, you must tell me. I'm certain you were smuggling something, but for the love of me, I couldn't figure out what it was.
You can guess what it was now.

Can you believe this.
The EU – being only a half democratic entity, subject to the whims of a vast array of interest groups – displays this tendency par excellence.

This is EU's Achilles heel, leading to it's downfall.

The limit on wattage was to encourage manufacturers to design more efficient motors and they have risen to the challenge and have delivered. The question is why Dyson wanted to stifle innovation.
We have two old 2000 watt Miele cleaners and a new 890 watt Miele blizzard which is as good if not better at cleaning than the 2000 watt ones so what’s your problem
