grr why can't I remember the name - it wasn't Godfrey Hirst although we did look at that. Whats another well known name of quality wool carpets?

That is a brilliant price Lizzy. I wonder how much laying would cost. You might be able to negotiate it - if they want your business. Although in Queensland there will be a big demand for carpet I guess.

Its $215/broadroom metre layed..so its $1995 for all 3 rooms. Its $54/sq. Is that still a good price? We can't afford that anyway...

Oh drats

. My 2nd choice would be a Stainmaster carpet with a cut twist pile. This is what I have now. The only negative is the carpet can bleach from moisturisers and ointments. So when i moisturise my feet I put on socks every morning. But it doesn't stain from food and wine etc and doesn't flatten.

Finally remembered what our carpets were:

in tempting taupe - I love them.

But we only had 2 small bedrooms done so it was fairly cheap

With the changing of hosts last night we lost some posts- but I had them on my email account so I will add them for everyone.

You are welcome Lizzy

Is this still stretching the budget though?
