Who, what, where, when and why?

So: 

who: Martine

what: I had to sign up to Google to 'follow' a friend's blog so though I might as well load up a blog page.

where: somewhere in the beautiful Cotswolds

when: it's Monday and I have a lovely holiday this week

why: I called this silencing the bell to stop anyone pinching my website title, but it is an excuse to ramble where the website is for serious thoughts.  

I am making a new duvet cover for my daughter today. She put her toe through a small hole in hers and it turned into a big hole. The old one was plain purple, nothing very adventurous. The new one will be black and gold, in velvet and satin. I may post a photo when it is done.
