My cheap 'wooden' floor is 8 years old when only meant to have a lifespan of 5. A computer chair on wheels has left a lot of damage, and add to that water, and incontinence accidents from Nico after his stroke and it is in a bad way. Month to month I get by but a new carpet will be a big expense so that is my current goal! If you benefit from my blog or rambles on twitter and can spare a few pounds I would greatly appreciate it!
