Well, having written a post for this blog entitled "Fools rush in...", I couldn't resist the title!

Weird and illogical behaviour (captain). I noticed it yesterday, as I was putting some new vinyl flooring down in a kitchen.  Once I had it done, I had various other odd jobs to do in and around the kitchen, and noticed that I was tip-toeing around the room nervously. Then I noticed the customer doing it too. Why? Sooner or later it's going to be walked on "as if it's been there forever", so why tip-toe on it to start with?

Then I remembered that I do exactly the same thing with patios - even weeks after they've been finished, I still tread on them like Grasshopper walking across the rice paper (for those who remember "Kung Fu" from the 1970's!).
