Flooring specialists can be a little opaque with their wording: 2 strip, random length, wear layer, plies, micro-beveled and so on.  It's probably hard for any specialist group to not fall into using their jargon even when talking with 'laymen', so to speak.  I'll go over some of those terms, as well as talking about what the standard sizes are for the planks or pieces of flooring you'll be seeing as you shop.

Very Common Flooring Terms About Features and Dimensions

The standard flooring options include  solid and engineered hardwood, laminate, various forms of waterproof flooring, ceramic tile, stone tile and carpet. You may have a very good idea of what you want, you may have no idea, or you may have questions about whether your selection will be the best fit for your room. Here I'll share some very broad tips to get you started, and the written article has links to go deeper on any topic you want to investigate further.

Flooring Basics

Shopping for a new floor doesn’t have to be an intimidating process, and we’re here to help make it as painless as possible.  Everyone has their own way of doing things, but in this mini-episode, we give a few basic guidelines to help you get started.

Shopping Tips

Well, I never! Art-pop amblers Buffet Lunch have embarked on their blue period. Released today, new single ‘Blue Chairs, Blue Floors, Blue Folders’ is the first track to sally forth from their forthcoming album ‘Perfect Hit!’, out on April 4th through Upset The Rhythm.
 
Comprised of musicians based in Glasgow, Edinburgh and (sometimes) Newcastle, Buffet Lunch craft ramshackle odysseys of observational charm. Always catchy, often profound. Buffet Lunch have been previously described as a band that create 'a hodgepodge of noises’, and who are 'lyrically ridiculous'. Both claims are strongly denied by the group.
 
‘Blue Chairs, Blue Floors, Blue Folders’ is a deceptively carefree track, with its lengthy Shadows’ style intro, it is packed with anticipation, it revels in waiting, enjoying the mundane surroundings that often accompany monumental changes. This defines the modus operandi for a whole album of curious turns; a record that sees the band focus on more overtly personal themes like ancestry and becoming a parent, without neglecting the flawed Presbyterians and conker champions of the subconscious. ‘Perfect Hit!’ is built from bricks, ideas and plots, melodies and hooks, each stacked upon the other. It is available to pre-order now on 180g yellow vinyl from all the best shops and our very own website here: https://upsettherhythm.co.uk/

Most of us spend far too much time in the pub. What makes them so wonderful? Four of us went to Bristol to find out. (Unlike most of these podcasts this one is recorded on a small hand held device. Quality is sometimes compromised. And we get drunk.)

แต่คืนวันที่ผ่านพ้น กับการดิ้นรนแสวงหาวิธีรักษาตามประสาคนเป็นพ่อแม่ ประกอบกับ “จิต”
ที่เข้มแข็งอย่างทรงพลัง ด้วยความหวังว่าสักวันต้องหาย ต้องกลับมาเป็นคนดีคนเดิมของพ่อและแม่ให้ได้
อีกทั้ง “ใจ” ที่แข็งแกร่งเกินวัย บวกกับกำลังใจจากเพื่อนสนิทผู้ใกล้ชิด รวมถึงคนรู้ใจ ชีวิตจึงยังคงดำเนินต่อไปด้วยแรงกายแรงใจเท่าที่มี
จากวันนั้นถึงวันนี้ กว่าสองปีที่ทรมาน กว่าสองปีที่ยังคงรอคอยปาฏิหาริย์ กว่าสองปีที่ความหวังยังไม่หมดไป
ตราบใดที่ลมหายใจยังมี และตราบที่ความรักยังเปี่ยมล้นหัวใจ ซึ่งไม่ใช่แค่รักตัวเอง หากแต่คือรักอันใสบริสุทธิ์เท่าที่บุตรคนหนึ่งจะพึงมีต่อบุพการี
ด้วยอยากกลับมาทำความดีทดแทนพระคุณ รองจากนั้นคือรักที่มีต่อหมู่มิตรสหาย อยากได้วันวานคืนมา
และรักเดียวที่มีให้เธอ คนที่ทำให้รู้ว่า “รัก” มีอยู่จริง ไม่ใช่จินตนาการ
เป็นกำลังใจให้ "โพ โชคชัย คงแก้ว" และครอบครัว ผู้ที่มีจิตใจแกร่งและเข้มแข็งมากๆ
