How do you get zombie flesh out of carpets?

80 replies

EmpressOfTheVampireSkulls · 10/10/2011 22:43

It's a long story but Sephrenia and I found it necessary to attack MNHQ with a zombie army, and MNHQ have asked me to start a thread for advice on how to get the zombie mess out of their carpets.

Any suggestions?

No, dachshunds eat everything too. Arkady, given what zombie flesh smells like I doubt anyone will notice.

I never knew you could use a labarador in a zombie clean up. It's a pity about the biscuits though, some body parts fell in along with brains so I had to throw them out. Sorry Justine Blush

madwomanintheattic · 13/10/2011 03:13

oh, don't throw away the biscuits - labradors will eat them too

EmpressOfTheVampireSkulls · 13/10/2011 10:49

I think we have a plan Grin

Let's send in the labradors first & then go over the place with lemon juice, corn on the cob and whatever the crime scene team recommend to finish off.

If all that doesn't work then we'll have to consider the piranhas and flamethrowers.

We'll also need red and white wine, gin and vodka - Sephrenia, you're responsible for that bit. And plenty of glasses. Arkady, madwoman and coffeeinbed, can you bring the labradors? I'll contact a crime scene team for advice.

Just thought. Are labradors immune to being zombified?

When I say our labrador, I meant the one we had when I was a kid. He died 20 years ago and so would only be any use now if he was zombified.
Can I come along for the drinking and haznat suits anyway?

EmpressOfTheVampireSkulls · 13/10/2011 11:23

As long as you help with the scrubbing.

@EmpressOfTheVampireSkulls

Great Grin

OK everybody, let's get going.

Should we put the kettle on? Confused

eaglewings · 13/10/2011 11:57

Chill the wine please Rebbeca and make sure there is some butter for corn
Thanks x

All done.
They are fully immune to bloody everything - they go for swimming in the Thames FGS. And survive.

Thanks all, much appreciated.
HelenMumsnet couldn't move for brains and OliviaMumsnet had to go home after she discovered a stray eyeball in her laptop bag.

Thank you [hgrin]

That wasn't a "stray" eyeball... that was a present...

Did she not see the gift card?

madwomanintheattic · 13/10/2011 15:46
Wine

kibble will never seem the same again.

OliviaMumsnet · 13/10/2011 15:59

Oh. Right. Thanks so much.

SephreniaRidesABroomstick · 13/10/2011 17:19

What brand of wine do we want? Anything special or will any old plonk do? I know enough to get Smirnoff and Gordon's, but that's about it Confused

I managed to get the brains out of the toilets by the way, just in case you were wondering, so you can take a break in a lovely, clean loo Grin

Did anyone think to pick up new biscuits?

madwomanintheattic · 13/10/2011 17:22

here you are. freshly baked.

IHaveYourRandomKitchenUtensils · 13/10/2011 17:26

Hmmm......

Just be on the lookout.

Just sayin'.....

As a side note: DH has come up with something should there ever be another zombie outbreak at MNHQ.

And I quote:

If Omo don't brighten it and Daz don't whiten it, BUGGER it!

Don't ask me, I don't know either but it sounds good Grin

EmpressOfTheVampireSkulls · 13/10/2011 18:31

How about merlot? It looks good in here, doesn't it?

Did you see the original thread's in Parenting News? [hsmile]

OP posts:
SephreniaRidesABroomstick · 13/10/2011 18:43

I did! I agree with their assessment, it was beyond surreal but funny as hell.

I wonder if in a years time we'll be reminiscing about the Zombie Invasion and newbies will all be wondering what the hell we're on about? Grin
