  3. Right, my Marleys have decided that after 45 years they would like to come up for a rest after all. Stuck down with that black bituminous gunge. Did you scrape all yours off, or put the levelling stuff over it?
     
  4. Register will be taken at Techenders , put you down as `absent` now shall i ??

    :rolleyes:

    :hattip:
     
  5. If that levelling stuff is water based, which most stuff is now, then I would be inclined to get it all off. Could give you problems later on.

  6. so do you all have wallpaper that's printed with fake pictures and mirrors hanging on the wall too?

    i think i'm struggling with this stuff because it's just set painting/printing - looks like something it's not, which i'm fine with in a theatre but in a home; close scrutiny and can feel it's not wood?:confused:

    I get that it's nice vinyl, soft flooring but it's the whole printed to look like a different material thing...i think...

    i'm over-thinking this aren't i? :D

  7. It’s not soft it’s rock hard , you can hit it with a cupboard full of crocks n glasses from above 4feet and it won’t mark it. :thumbsup: It’s what large department stores use because of wear and if fitted right it will out last wood , pests don’t eat it either :D

    No. You are correct. :)
    My vinyl bathroom floor is patterned.
    If you want a wooden floor, get one!

  9. it's not the material i'm struggling with but the fact that it has a picture of a wood floor on. maybe if it had a nice flower meadow or lily pond printed on instead... :thinking::D[/QUOTE]

  13. It’s not blue peter stuff it’s not printed on , its planks too n you can lay them in any order , well on the wood pattern anyway and it looks good and is easy to clean when you come home late n dribble see . Also it’s flat so you don’t trip over the edge when your winned up . Spew won’t stay on it smelling and the frost don’t come few cracks coz there ain’t any ,save ener gee too . Just get Lino if your jealous :D

  15. Yeh but your getting old just remember that I didn’t like to mention Tena malady :D, being prepared is good also but that flowery stuff don’t look like flowers so why don’t you put flowers on the floor :confused:

    Vinyl should be black and white check, like in the 60s, it’s just the way it should be.
    I love old Marley tiles though so I’d be keeping them. Fake wood? Why would ya?
