The whole thing's wrong... What a minging pattern

[Joe H]

but I much prefer to clean that then a white or off white plain carpet.

give me a patterned carpet anytime. 

[Colin Day]

Fair do's Joe, but I wouldn't have that carpet to cover my compost heap, let alone my flooring

[Joe H]

We have it on our walls - in the loo.  Sign of good taste.

Is it a before and after pic on a site and the after pic has the carpet coming away at a join 

Bob

[Colin Day]

If you stare at it long enough you can see Michael Jackson's face?

 

You're obviousy right Bob

[Jason Ryan]

Yeah, the carpet has come away at join.

[Steve Chapman]

is it that your spending inordinate amounts of time surfing the web looking for pictures of dodgy looking  carpets

Seams OK to me.

[garry22]

Nah, it's different pieces ... the roses are different! 

[John Kelly]

They are different areas of carpet but if they picked them for before and after photos they must be right numpties. Pick an area with no seam showing surely.

i cleaned a carpet a few weeks ago and it was a throwback to the seventies, gold, red, green blue swirls all over it, very psychedelic. it was in 18" strips and it was just like new. i wondered why anyone would want a pattern like that these days. turns out the carpet was 28 years old!!!  they had brought up 4 kids with that carpet in the lounge and it honestly looked like a new carpet but what a pattern!!

Just What i thought John k

and yes for those who noticed it does appear to be coming apart at the seams, a before and after pic on a c/c website :

Steve, I agree I,m spending to much time , actually it was a link to a local c/c cleaner in beverley that i spotted whilst looking on ebay and as I hadn't heard of him thought i would take a gander


Yes I know Mike H is based in Beverley, But I know Mike has a little more savvy than that  unless of course you have another company I don't know about Mike.

Got to admit I was surprised by the choice of pic.

Thats a blast from the past lol

I will never forget the look of that carpet my first commercial job at zetters bingo hall in southampton june1993 my aunty new the cleaner there chewing gum and fAg burns all over the place cleaned it with my brand new steameasy single vac with a massive 70psi pump

I will always remeber how yellow the ceiling was from all the smoking in there

Really cocked up on the pricing dont think i made any money on that job worked through the night. happy days  ::)D crap night

Nice find Geoff

[clinton]

Same here i remember that patern or similar

You also got the 70s smoked glass furniture too and a swine to move

That steameasy was my first machine too. Single vac 70 psi, bloody hard work. But you could lift it above your head !

[Steve. Taylor]

Steve to think i built my business on that machine.

Driving around in a mk2 ford transit 1600 petrol engine. my mate was realy good at graffiti and sprayed some really cool sign writing on it. 

Thought i was the bees knees driving around with my kirby vacuum in the back down hill used to go off the clock at 80mph not that i ever went that fast on a public road :

pioneer radio/cassette with big speakers hanging from the roof

Must of looked like something out of the bloody sweeney
