    Afternoon everyone!

    I'm in again this week, but working lots, so may end up doing lots at the beginning of the week and then catching up at the weekend as usual. Need to eat lunch and then do the kitchen and a few other bits before 3pm cos LadyLiberty is coming over for coffee then. The weather here is horrible, so will have to use the TD if I do any washing, which is out in the garage, so I'll have to get a bit wet going out there. Ebony doesn't know what to do, cos he's been out, but realised it's raining, and has got a bit cold I think, so I expect he'll park himself in front of the airing cupboard in a minute to warm up.

    Right, better get on with it all and eat my lunch, cos I'm starving now. Had work this morning and the class weren't too bad (year 3/4), but there was lots of marking to do.

    Happy Birthday maralum.

    See you all later,

    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Any tips for getting a badly stained carpet cleaned. Me and my dad have used the carpet cleaner on it but no Joy.

    Over the weekend, my dh used some cilit bang spray on some stains on our stairs carpet. He let it sink in, and then used a small brush to work it in. It seems to have lifted all the stains really well. I would probably recommend doing a patch test first. x

    What's it stained with?

    Food, paint and other thing that I can not identify. It has been down for 4 years now and has suffered abuse at the hands of a growing monster. She was 2 when we moved in here so its taken quite a battering.
