Back when I first bought my house and I was still going through my Goth Phase I made the mistake (one of many) of putting down a Thick Black non patterned Carpet in the main Bedroom.
The Carpet Man warned me at the time it would be nightmare to keep! but I did not listen. Roll on a decade later........
... its driving me mad! and he was right.
was taking something apart last night and lost a small black spring and had to go looking on my hand and knees and I had not realized how filthy it looked. The Carpet looked like it had faded to grey rather than being black.
Covered in Cat hair, Fluff, Dust etc, Now Its hovered once or twice a week
but but it makes little difference, a few times a month I actually go down on my hands and knees with a damp sponge and hand wipe and clean every inch of hit bit by bit to make it look clean.
I'm living in a semi-detached house and I know my neighbor had a wooden floor in their bedroom as I can hear every footstep they make when they walk about with shoes on through the wall!! :eek:
That puts me off just taking the carpet up and either sanding the floor or putting down junkers etc.
Also dont want the coldness of the likes of Lino as dont want the bedroom feeling like a bathroom or kitchen or a cheap nasty looking industrial floor look. I'd like something clean, easy to maintain, non-noisey.
Anyone know of alternative floor surfaces that people use for Bedrooms ?

Pretty cool, probably expensive thanks!
I must get googleing, some of those Cork Floors look pretty cool and
since you can just cut them with a stanley blade and glue them down they could be installed
pretty easy!
I like :-)

I'm drooling over it cant find any online stores in
Ireland that sells it, found one Irish online store last night
that apparently sells it but they had no info on prices,
also saw a board.ie post from a few years back that
said it was 90 Euro's per square meter a bit much for me since my savings
are in the minus figures! (less than Zero) at the moment.

I was invited but I figured the usual "get in the paper" heads would be there and just annoy me so I opted to have a chinese and watch some of the recent arrivals from Amazon instead.
Seems like a strange thing to let stop you attending an event. It was a decent enough show anyway.
The last one I was at had Neil Francis at it, and tbh the setup kind of needs someone like him who won't just sit there and pander to the partisan nature of the crowd.
John Muldoon, for example, has said in public that he expects Toulon to win the match on Sunday but declared that Munster would win last night. The quality of analysis wasn't that great as it aws just a bit of a Munster love in.
Still, John Kelly and Frankie Sheehan were good for a laugh as always. Entertaining show, a couple of free pints, I'll be back again next time it's in town.0 -

Hi Limerick people! Hope it's OK to post in this thread, as I have a question but didn't think there was much point in starting a new thread especially!
I stay in the Strand Hotel in Limerick pretty regularly, and I was wondering if anyone could suggest a safe route from the hotel for jogging for a woman early in the mornings(6.30, 7.00 ish)? Maybe a 5km loop. I just really don't know the city and don't know what the best direction to head would be.
I could just use the treadmills in the hotel gym, but my colleagues stay there too and I'd be a bit embarrassed about running into some of them there!
Thanks!0 -

Go out towards the river, turn right down O'Callaghan strand and follow the road in a curve away from the river. You'll come to a roundabout on your left, keep it on your left and go straight (you'll end up cutting across one of the roads leading onto the roundabout). Go along that road (should be signposted North Circular road) and you'll be on a loop that if you follow will lead you back to the river.
The North Circular Road is 2.6 miles around in a loop so just a bit short of 5k. I've run it at all times of the year, sometimes early in the morning, sometimes late at night and it's perfectly safe. I'm sure if you ask at reception they'll be able to show you it on a map.0 -
