  1. Just to be ironic, maybe Kimbo should have wriitten, "NO!" in curtain hooks.

    1. No, for a bedroom curtain. We do have a shower curtain in France, but here it's 'built-in'.

  3. He has a great sense of humour. It reminds me of my daughter the other day. She replied with the answer written in strips of pepper

    1. Yes. It was a huge pleasure to me when I first realised that my 3 children all have a very good sense of humour.

  4. Haha, Very clever. Kimbo probably knew that you would post up his reply.
    Interestingly I managed to replace a friend's kitchen curtains using two shower curtains cutting them each at the bottom. They look great.

    1. I was almost ready to use some bent wire, so I was very happy to be offered the real thing!

    Can't remember when I last used curtain hooks. I now buy curtains with those big metal rings and just slip them onto a curtain pole. It saves so much time!

    1. All our other curtains have 'loops' over a wooden pole. We have those wooden rings in France. I prefer them.
