Choose your decor carefully
Sadly I have learnt the hard way about house guests and home decorating.
I spent ages redecorating the whole hallway, stairs, bedrooms with a lovely cream wool berbour carpet.
I also threw a wicked house party with my notorious cocktails.
I'd get the blender going with a whole lemon, top up with loads of vodka and some ice to make "Smirnoff ice", as in it's smirnoff and ice.
I'd hollow out a pineapple, blend malibu and other stuff then pour back into the pineapple which became a cocktail cup.
One step too far was the blue daquiri, orange and god knows what else which gave us a green cocktail that tasted like kiwi fruit.
Unfortunately Mark wasn't looking good so I sat him down in an easy chair in the hallway since it was quiet there.
"RAAAAAALPH!".....
I swear I shampooed that carpet a dozen times, aired it, dried it, did everything I could then had to replace it.

Cream carpets and cocktails do not mix.

Cream carpets and anything don't mix !

Cream carpet
Looks fine on the roll in the shop, which is exactly where it needs to stay!

At the opposite end of the durability scale, I wonder how tarmac would look in the hallway... (strokes chin)

In my defence
this was back in 2000 so 11 yrs ago we were all just getting into the ikea and "changing rooms" on the tv phase.
