Morphy Richards and Resource Efficiency - Not

We've been happy possessors of a Morphy-Richards vacuum cleaner for some years now. Up until Wednesday it has functioned very well but then the hose split. Trivial, you might think, just purchase a new hose. Well, that's what I tried to do but would you believe that M-R no longer supply such items? (Due to the construction we need one with the appropriate attachments at each end, otherwise we could have purchased a generic hose and been happy bunnies).

The MD of M-R didn't seem particularly impressed with my suggestion that junking a working vacuum for want of a hose could hardly be described as resource efficient. I've bodged a repair for the moment but, sadly, I foresee a new vacuum cleaner purchase looming on the horizon. It won't be from Morphy-Richards!
