We've just had new carpet put down on the stairs in our house. Random thing to write about you might think, but for me, it's a bit Proustian.Ahhh, 'Carpet Smell'. A bit like the fact that new cars and books have their own special smell, so does carpet. And it triggers happy memories of childhood trips to B&Q, and rolling through the giant carpet pyramid things.
Especially the ones really close together that squeezed you a bit like a mangle.
