I'm struggling to find any locally, although I have found some online. Thing is, all-in, it works out more expensive than those nasty tile things once you've paid for delivery.

I'm talking about old-fashioned linoleum on a roll. Doesn't really matter about colour or pattern, though something plain and simple would be ideal.

At present, it would cost me a little less to get a cab from Homebase where I could buy x40 packs of those sticky-back tiles at 3.99 per pack than it would to buy a roll of the stuff I'd actually like to put down and have it delivered. These appear to be the better choice once I have the money for them, as I wouldn't need to replace the whole lot if I damaged one or two in the future.

I had just though the old fashioned stuff might have been cheaper, but seems not.

You might find what you want if you Google 'vinyl & cushionfloor' - they don't call it lino any more.

Oh, right...I'm not really. Though, I am looking for something wipe-cleanable. Obviously.

Breakdancer, it's a non-contact dance...unless you're with your crew.

Lino is a standard.

Does breakdancing on the street to an iPod really keep it street though???

So in answer to your question...rob your local B-Boys....or challenge them to a battle with the lino as the prize!

That was my immediate thought...but it is Abs...and he did put it in caps in such an alluring manner.

The spoils in this case may be deemed to be whatever he can salvage from out of their undercrackers perhaps. The competitors themselves, and their virginity will be claimed. :rab:

You're quite right. Once I have beaten a man I do like to help myself. :coffee:

Alternatively, once I am beaten, I have no problem offering myself up (I'll end up doing that most times actually).

This is key to honourable battle, though many have forgotten or discarded these traditions.

hey if you only got a small space to cover, you can sometimes get end of the roll shit for dirt cheap,, but i guess you dont have anything around like you said. maybe someone can use that information and buy it and press their boobies on it and take pictures.

right?

right.
