    I've managed to destroy our new white carpet with my carbon footprints. I don't even remember stepping in any carbon so where they came from is beyond me. Any advice on how to remove the stains before the Mrs gets home?

    Grass is organic and renewable. Grass stains will make that nasty carbon go right away...

    Run now while you still have time ....

    Seriously a white carpet...she made you do it, didint she. Might be cheaper to take the wife out that it is too the stains out...

    Meet her at the door, tell her it's a big "honey i love you day" (do not let her into the house!) take her for lunch, loads of wine, then take her for a nice walk, some where muddy.. more wine (sex in the car optional) and make sure she walks on the carpet when yee get in, but distract her with your huge ...ermmm...smile.. till you get her upstairs.. Then blame her the next day.

    Good luck, if we don't hear from you again.... well, may the force be with you.

    Invite your next door neighbour in for tea and then go mental because he/she ruined the carpet

    Burn your house down and run off with the maid. Spend new life on M50 roundabout.

    Turn the carpet upside down. The perfect crime.

    Have three cans of baked beans ...you can then offset your carbon footprint with the resulting wind energy.

    Walk over every inch of the carpet with mucky feet and pretend that the carpet was actually brown in the first place.
    Why would anyone buy a white carpet?!

    Ha ha - I thought that said 'clit' bang.. Maybe wouldn't be such a bad idea... A proven useful tool to release pent up aggression.. It may make the repercussions of your dirty footwear a lot less frightening.

    But seriously - a white carpet?? What in jaysis where you thinking? Just .... no!
