Re: Stairs

You won't believe this Pesta but I also count stairs and I always start with my right foot going up but left foot coming down. It's nothing superstitious or anything like that - just the way I have always done it.

I have twelve stairs on the main staircase and a few more on the landing.

Re: Stairs

You have stairs on the Landing LD, that could be tricky in the middle of the night.

You know Dingy, you've got me thinking now about which feet I use going up or down and I've forgotten with not going up and down stairs every few minutes.
I'll have to make a conscious effort to see what I do when I next climb any steps/stairs.

Another 12er on the main bit

Re: Stairs

No stairs at all.
Having moved to my first bungalow in 2002, I wouldn't want a house again.

No more lugging the hoover about on the staircase, no more going up and down to the loo, no more tripping over the dogs toys on the stairs - nah, wouldn't swap back now.

Nite light city Spitty. We have to have a nite light so we can see the cats who purposely sleep on the stairs attempting to trip us up at three in the morning.
