However, I have been known to do it in a pinch or I will repair a strip that gets accidentally pulled up. They are tripping hazards and occasionally someone won't stay on the walkway and will venture into another area. I grab an extra roll and will rush over to fix it. Pulling the tape up and sticking it on my clothes is easy except it is often covered in lint and dirt.

I like him better now that we don't live together and he writes me checks.<br /><br />I do not know my genealogy back very far. My Mother's side was German, we think by the surname, and my Father's side was British, once again guessing by the surname. We here in the USA, seem to be mostly mixed mutts. My husband has a red beard so we wonder if he might be Irish? It is all guesses. I have thought about tracing my family tree; but, I fear I would probably find horse thieves and outlaws.Jeanniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11333123227073032453noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-424277252952787351.post-41751159255102622732017-06-15T02:43:45.245-05:002017-06-15T02:43:45.245-05:00Hi Jeannie

It will show how the crew sticks the used tape onto their clothes to avoid leaving any behind during teardown.
