Another mumsnetter has been shagging my husband and her name is ...

[twinsetandpearls]

Right now I have your attention please deal with my swirly curtain fitting enquiry!

[exposes self as shameless gossip seeker]

TSAP, I have no idea about your voile query I'm afraid. Could you buy a few meters off a roll from Dunelm or somewhere similare and attempt to artfully drape it somehow? I am not a voile lover myself I have to say.

Doh!

I knew I would catch at least one of you nosey feckers!

IT is an inherited feature, the people before us left the behind and I am planning to do the same.

You are all tip toeing in now, at least you are honest enough to own up.

I would have opened the thread and crept away.

Does anyone have swirly swaggy voile things anymore? Sorry to sound negative, but the person who buys your house may well rip the whole lot off anyway. Could you bite the bullet and take them off and fill the hles and put a smart blind up instead?

I had to laugh out loud when I realised I'd been caught our Sorry, I have no idea as what to do with your pole.

They are very big in Blackpool apparantly!

Is swirly swaggy voile the technical term?

I was just trying to find an easy option!

Time for me to own up, dp loves the swirly effect. I removed one of the fittings thinking that would be the end of it and dp was really annoyed as he liked them. So I blamed dd and said she must have been swinging from it. Bribed dd to keep her quiet. So for a year now we have had one swirly fitting and holes and marks where the other one was. Dp came home the other day dead chuffed that he had got a replacement fitting and put it back up. He has promised there will be no swirly shagggy things in new house and we will leave it behind!

Oooh I never clicked on a thread so quickly.

Bloody hell, i nearly broke my finger clicking this one

lolol at swirly swaggy things being big in Blackpool - is that where you are? My Mum lives there and is swirly swaggy free. She has a vast collection of other dust traps, erm, tat, erm, lovely things though

pmsl!!!!!

Yesterday the estate agent even asked if I had a voile to go there!

OMG, I am such a sucker for gossip ....

SWAGTASTIC!

they even sleep under swags

Oh sweet baby Moses.

Never mind quoting Old Testament prophets this is my market!

Goodness, they like a swiry-whirly bit of voile up your way!

Think that if you just buy a length of voile, as TigerFeet suggested, you could drape it artfully around your charming, original features.

You could just get white/cream, no need to match with other curtains.

Up here we love brass, swags, laminate, decking and the holy grail a white plastic mock Georgian fireplace. All I have is the one swag in the hallway what chance do I have?

Aaaarrghhhhh my eyes

(Tiger remembers why she left Blackpool and never went back )

No one will buy your house with only one swag. Get more! Get more!

I may bring my swag to Dorset and convert them!
