The heat makes folk do some extraordinary things - have you done anything out of character during this heat wave.

Can't even explain how I ended up buying a carpet shampooer.
Culturally we don't wear shoes in the house so the carpets are not really dirty.
Grandaughter 6, spilt something on the floor which I've not been able to bend down to clean properly. Told her she has to help me next week - summer hols.

Oh nanny she says you need to buy one of those carpet thingi's that have water in. Then it would be easy peasy lemon squeezy. Asked if mummy has one, she said no but if I bought one mummy can borrow it to clean my bedroom.

Saw an advert for a discounted Bissell. Like I was bewitched - ordered it without thinking and it arrive the next day.

Windows wide open - have spent the last 3 hours giving them a once over and the stain disappeared like magic. The carpets look like new and the lovely smell is intoxicating. The exercise has lifted my mood.

Cleaning it is simple - though I was really surprised the colour of the water.

A gizmo I will be definitely using it again - a good buy - why didn't I think of it before. ;-)
