I think you will probably find that 'that one'is not worth a light Ginns - Is it 'Insurance backed' ???

Yes Dea....carpet burns in all sorts of places ;-)

Why have you got receipts for stuff you dont even have. I throw them away when the guarantee runs out

Still have my damp proof receipt as that covers 30 years!

Carpet burns Ginns ??? - On your feet I hope, not on your b#m - naughty girl !!!

Dea Xxx

P.S. - I have receipts etc for things I bought over 30 years ago, plus things I no longer have !!

Really MUST have a 'de-clutter' !!!

I bought that carpet about 15 years ago. I dont keep receipts that long.

Tell you what though, there is no wear and tear on it and theres been a few trod and wiped over the years....good stuff for the porch but wouldnt want it in my bedroom.....youd get carpet burns

That is the one I suggested to you Ginns - Coir matting (made from coconut fibres) !!!

What dou you mean about the receipt ?? - Either it was 'knock off', or you are too disorganised to keep it ??? :-D :-D :-D

Anyway - have a look at that link again - give it a good beating and try the suggestion !!!

Can you not have a look at your receipt for the carpet and see what it is called?

Gee Report 26 Nov 2011 16:25

Its easy to take up although very heavy it must be about 4inch thick!

I think if I took a mop to it Cyns the mop would come orf worse!

Dea its just like the big heavy duty door mats but I bought it off a role like regular carpet and had it fitted.....dont know what the material is

Dea

Dea Report 26 Nov 2011 16:17

Why on earth did you have to take it up to paint Ginns???

Wide masking tape laid on it around all the edges and tucked well down to the skirting boards is much easier!!!

Is it 'coir matting' Ginns?

Boy! Am I glad to put my feet up for a while! Been busy since 7.30am almost non-stop...........zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz


Don't know why you bothered opening it R. I hardly get any and just delete them if they look suspicious.



Not sure about your mat Gins. Certainly a good thumping would remove quite a bit of dirt. Could you use a yard brush on it to loosen the dirt a bit or would that rip it up? Once you have got the loose dirt out, how about giving it a damp mop on a dry day? I have been known to mop mats before now! :-D

Cynthiaaaaaa

Queen of clean I need your help

Carpet from the porch could do with a clean before I re lay it. It is made of that stuff that looks like really thick straw.....door mat material Id say

It is fitted but I have taken it up to paint. What do you suggest other than a buddy good whack with a stick?

Hi dea

Lainie was finding her laptop was very slow, so she decided to take a break until her computer was mended ............ I think she said it would be about 2 weeks.

I think Gracie's family wedding is this coming weekend.



I'm off to bed now

Good morning all !!

I will just have a bacon buttie to keep me going 'till 10 am when that lovely brunch is ready..................

Yes, Sylvia, I am missing Lainie too - she hasn't been around for a while - hope she is O.K.

Thinking of Gracie too - I am sure she will be back soon though. She must be very tired after her 'Op', and with looking after the 'little one' - She has the wedding coming up soon too doesn't she?

Nite nite to Jax, and Sylvia Xxx

See you all later,

Dea Xxx
