One more house related post I'm afraid...though this one could at least be (somewhat tortuously) described as 'seasonal'...in that it's hard to look at nautical knots without thinking of striped sailor shirts, beach houses, and the sort of summer daydreams that center around a yacht, glistening wavelets, and self reclining upon the deck with a cocktail close at hand (thereby ignoring all common sense...potential sea sickness...and the manual labor needed to get said yacht to sea in the first place). It's altogether much easier to get a whiff of the tangy tidal air by investing in a knotted rope doorstop...much needed, given that any attempt on my part to throw open a few windows and establish a cross-breeze creates a powerful wind whose one goal seems to be to slam as many doors as possible with a vigor that means that I not only fear for the hinges but my sanity as well...
