It's not so bad for me Gin because it's the dining room so does not get as much traffic as hallway & lounge...am just useless at choosing things like that...can never make my mind up :-D :-D

I measured lounge earlier and it's approx 23ft x 18ft....so to get a decent one in there will cost an arm & leg :-0 :-0

Hya again Ann :-D <3

I know what you mean about carpet samples - we got a new living room carpet earlier this year, and brought the samples home to try with the decor. I like the one we chose, but it still seems lighter than we expected. So, it's off with the shoes at the door! :-D :-D ;-) ;-)

Lol Gin, yes I like it Fly because it's such a light room I didn't want to make it look dark by purchasing the wrong shade in this design of which there were several :-0

It's took me about an hour to fix my table back together, so now the headache is curtains :-0

Remember Fly when you are choosing a carpet in the shop...they always look darker when you throw the samples on the floor....that came from a reliable source :-D :-D

WARNING ...EMAIL SCAM

I have just opened an email from my cousin who I met through GR.

I hovered the mouse over her name and the correct email address came up, a hotmail account.

However it was NOT from my cousin but someone who is using her account.

It was marked URGENT.

I panicked after seeing the gist, which was asking me to send nearly £2,500, saying she was visiting a relative in the Ukraine and was in trouble.

I have deleted it, and I hope that it hasn't infected my Gmail account. I did not open an attachment, so I hope I am ok this time.

DO NOT OPEN ANY EMAILS FROM ME (supposedly) UNLESS I HAVE PMed YOU FIRST TO WARN YOU.

Also if any of you have my email address, please would you also PM me first if you are going to email me, so that I know that it is genuine.

Thanks, Jem :-) <3

I'm sure your carpet will be fine, Ann :-D :-D

When we got the last but one living room carpet delivered, the fitter said - "Pink carpet here for you, Love!"

Pink? :-S :-S - it was terracotta - nearly put me off it, the silly man! :-D :-D ;-) ;-)
