Kinda magical the way it was laid too. The fitters were here less than an hour. Mind you they love me, our carpet fitters. When they arrive the room to be fitted is always empty, and the door is always off. Just about the easiest fit they ever have - the only way it could be simpler is if there weren't any awkward corners. Well I couldn't help that. With a bay window and a hearth it was never going to be as straightforward as a square room, but they were in and out in about 50 minutes, including underlay and gripper rods.
I'm very pleased with the way it looks - exactly as we'd pictured it. This weekend will be taken up with rehanging curtains and moving the furniture back in. Assuming it'll go in of course. There's still a little niggling worry that the larger of the two sofas won't actually negotiate the turn from the hall, but we won't know for certain until Sunday. Between now and then we'll be vacuuming the darned thing every hour to get rid of all that "new carpet fluff." The kind that used to cling to my school uniform as a lad, on account of me spending most of my time on the floor.
