Hi @Quinkish Welcome to TSP


Your user name reminds me of a very dark (ha!) episode in my youth when my sisters and I got into Serious Trouble after spilling a complete bottle of black Quink over my mum's brand new carpet.  The repercussions went on for years  :laughing:

I too spilt a bottle of blue Quink ink when I was at school, it splashed over a window sill and the wall beneath, and a bit onto the carpet I think.  The blue Quink is washable so I think we got most of it out of the carpet but the wallpaper was stained until it was replaced.  :scream:

No!  I was still going to school at the time, abour 12 or 13, but I was at home when I spilt the ink!

Glad it wasn't just us, @BrendaP  although my mother never really forgave any of us.  Feel guilty even now!  :laughing:
