You well of British carpet horrors runs deep. Carpeted bathrooms were common amongst my grandparents’ generation. A nightclub in Nottingham, Ocean, was infamously carpeted when I studied there, and the subject of many jokes about what manner of substances must be contained in those threads.
The carpet was eventually torn up, leading to mourning and memorials from the student population https://thetab.com/uk/nottingham/2013/09/13/hoes-carpet-torn-up-as-ocean-undergoes-massive-makeover-9044 https://thetab.com/uk/nottingham/2013/09/13/hoes-carpet-torn..., and the owner has leaned in to the meme and given several framed squares away to patrons.
