Not necessarily poor people
but people with horrendous taste when they are put into modern houses.

hmm
i don't know how to respond to this. my house at home had them in the hall, up the stairs and in the breakfast room when my family moved in, but it's a post war house i think.
although my mam did have the one in the breakfast room removed (rather shoddily at first) when we moved in

^this
hideous and unsightly faux-wood rails around one's abode do nothing to enhance the beauty of the room.

dado rails are rather useful for hiding the join between old and new plaster
after an extensive dampcourse

well rule of thumb
people with dado rail have spent twice as much on wall paper / paint on those who don't have a dodo rail
plus they're ugly!

I love your logic
I had a dado rail in the sitting room in my last house in London but it was built in 1884 and belonged there.

My pet hate is those "lounges" (lordy I hate that word) who put a wallpaper strip thing (where the dado rail should go) and have patterned wallpaper above and plain colour below.
With matching dralon "lounge suite" and matching generic pictures on the wall.

They're actually just to hang pictures off
But I think that should be updated to the mangled remains of Handy Andy.

An orphan?
sad things seem to be happening to board members all the time :(
( mediocre Cows and bisexuals are gonna kill me, Sun 16 Dec 2007, 21:09, archived)

Yes
My dad died yesterday morning and here I am, on B3ta.

It's really not tragic like other people's losses on the board. He had a long life and died in his sleep with no pain. That's the way we all should go and I feel very pleased with the manner in which he died; peacefully.

We all expected it and thankfully all managed to say our goodbyes. Not many get that chance.
I feel lucky and not too upset.

( Flowerpot Blowing through the jasmine in my mind, Sun 16 Dec 2007, 21:24, archived)

is an incredibly mature way to look at it. i'm sure he would have been proud of you
