Jute and Sisel...

...on stairs. Carpet fitter tells me a health and safety issue. Have many deaths been due to this type of carpeting? Any of you got it and gone arse over tit?

I am a clumsy twat. But he was a bit like the Grim Reaper with it.

 

[oneblueye]

hey ...

sounds like a rock duo from the 60's and their first album

Jute and Sisel at the Cavern Friday nights
debuting their first album: 'On the Stairs'

 

[FataMorgana]

Haha. It does!

 

[FataMorgana]

Oh and it's sisal. Apparently.

 

[surdeep]

Try seagrass instead.

 

[FataMorgana]

Try seagrass instead.

That's lovely too. It's just the place I went only had the above and he talked like my death was imminent.

Saw a nice wool runner but I seem to have my heart set on the rough stuff.

 

[phrodeau]

Depends on your footwear. For hockey skates, you want thick rubber.

 

[Adre]

I’d have to agree with him. Stairs may be the last place you want an uneven surface.

Get your “rough stuff” another way.

 

[surdeep]

I've had berber style sisal on my stairs for years, but it has a rubber underlay.

Rubber is always a good compliment to the rough stuff.

Nice image: Fata arse over tits.

And you've not found it slippy?

Not at the bottom of the stairs with my head on backwards Father Karras style.

 

[surdeep]

And you've not found it slippy?

No, but proof's in the pudding, slip into something rubber and come try them out.

Jute and Sisel...(snip)

Jute Law and Sisel B Demille?






I can hear the groans already.....

Ditch the stairs. Have an elevator installed.

The stairs and the upper landing are the only portions of my house with carpeting. They would have wooden flooring on them if wooden flooring wasn't slippery when wearing socks. Smooth surfaces are much easier to clean properly.

Or you can use Flex Paste, the incredible rubberized paste.

 

[Sean]

And you've not found it slippy?

Bear in mind he has a much lower centre of gravity than normal people.

 

[spacekowboy]

Didn't they sing Muskrat Love?

 

[surdeep]

Bear in mind he has a much lower centre of gravity than normal people.

Was that a short joke, little one?

 

[Trumpedo]

I prefer siskel and Ebert.

 

[FataMorgana]

Fuck it, I'm going sisal. I'll just have to cling to the bannister extra hard.

 

[HisArpy]

Fuck it, I'm going sisal. I'll just have to cling to the bannister extra hard.

I wouldn't.

It'll be like a skateboard with invisible wheels just waiting for you to step on it.

Seriously, don't.

Do you know as much about carpets as you do cats?

 

[HisArpy]

Do you know as much about carpets as you do cats?

Less.

But, it's your noggin...
