Someone recently showed me before and after photos of thier carpet after hiring a cheap** carpet cleaner. Bearing in mind they have 2 young children it was amazing.
** by cheap i mean the ones you can hire on the High Street.

We hired one on the high street some years ago, and it kept tripping the fuse box. That didn't instill be with confidence, so back it went for a refund.

I have a Shark carpet cleaner you could borrow @Dave7 except the hose wouldn't be long enough to reach... 🤷‍♂️

Is it made from real sharks?

We manage to kill most houseplants but the rubber plant we have is doing really well 🤞
It's still unfurling new leaves 😎

Bonjour.
SiL asked me to go to France with her in the next few weeks as she is selling her house there after the death of her husband and she needs an interpreter for the paperwork.
Of course I will help her and it will also give me the chance to re supply on Muscat wine ( an aperitif you can't get here) and French mayonnaise .
