    Got venetian blinds downstairs & curtains upstairs. No nets, but then the house isn't overlooked at all so no worries abt prying eyes.

    Yes Netblinds are all around my house, well only on the front!..(our back just looks onto our garden and others, and then houses right in the distance..)

    On the back, where my BedRoom is I don't have any as I just have a blind and it would look quite strange!..

    But yeah so like half and half.. ..

    A very british poll!

    The eternal friend of the nosey parker - the netcurtains! Seen twitching in every middle class estate in the UK, especially when number 27 has a new delivery. Got to keep up with the Jones's

    Net curtains?

    Hell no, a humble bit of wood blocking the lower half of the front window does me fine

    Net curtains are evil, only bought by OAPs something to fill out the shopping basket apart from hair nets and dog food.

    Blinds all round - every window - as it was a new house had custom made colour matched ones made up and professionally installed - not showing off just pointing out as it cost a lot less than we thought it would

    I find that a large front garden and tall hedge do the trick, none of this net curtain frippery for me
    If it ain't broke, fetch a bigger hammer

    Exclamation

    depends what you do behind them I guess...

    I hate it when you walk past someones house and they don't have net curtains - your brain forces you to look through the window! Garuuunteed there is someone sat on a sofa watching TV, who immediately looks up and mouths the words 'WHAT THE FUKC ARE YOU LOOKING AT!?'
    Get some net curtains if you don't like ppl looking through!!!
