Blinds

[poliphilo]

I understand curtains. I've lived with curtains all my life. If I were buying new curtains it would simply be a question of what colour I fancied.  But blinds? I've not done blinds before.

And in the bedroom. What if they leak light? What if they're horribly fiddly? What if I regret the decision the moment they're up?

Her Next Door has blinds. In every room. They look really clean and cool and modern. 

The only place I've dealt with blinds before is in Travel Lodges. 

I liked the salesman. He wasn't pushy. A child started laughing when he was measuring up.  What the ...?  It was his ring tone, of course. 

Ailz is no use. I voice my objections; she bounces them back at me.  Might as well talk to the wall.

Oh, all right. Let's go for it!

What kind of blinds? If "cellular", be careful about getting ones that are too wide, as you will have constant trouble with the raising and lowering.

Cellular blinds are a new idea to me. I had to Google to find out what they were. So, no, we're not getting them; we're getting simple vertical blinds. :)
