Do an '80s squat instead, then you don't need carpet...

Sky blue pink, with yellow polka dots.

Seriously, Listy, you're never going to get into this 80s flat, are you?

'specially when you consider that in order to be authentic he will need...
A music centre (record player/tape deck/radio, possibly add CD to that)
A 4:3 cathode ray analogue tv which will cease to function in less than 2
years.
NO INTERNET. The most he'll be allowed is a bbs service over a 1200 baud
modem. 
If he wants optical disk based videos to watch, he'll need a video disk
player.
The most powerful computer permitted will be an amiga or atari ST.
(though I suppose we could allow a 286 based PC)

You know, Listy, if you find a set of keys in the gutter, it's only right 
that you hand them into the police...
