<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Two-and-a-half years ago, shortly after I got
Rolph, I ripped up the carpet and put down a good quality laminate floor.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>There has not been a day since when I haven't been
pleased with that decision, given the drool, vomit, hair, pee etc that it has
shrugged off.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>However, in the recent severe weather a pipe burst
in the kitchen and my ground floor was flooded. That was the end of my lovely
laminate.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have been trying to find something of similar
quality with which to replace it, but all the "upper end" floors have bevelled
edges to make them look more like real wood planks. My fear is these v-shaped
groves will soon become full of drool, hair etc and look horrible as well as
being hard to clean. As the insurance company is paying, I am stuck with certain
suppliers and so far have just been stomping out of shop after
shop.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Have any of you got a laminate floor with bevelled
edges? And how do you find it? </FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Sally, with Rolph and Clara, UK (who rather than
tell me the house was flooding in the middle of the night, moved upstairs to
carry on sleeping!)</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
