Introduction Hi my name is Catherine and I am 57. I am a full time working Mum, married to Alan with Adam 29, Kate 27 and David 25. We live in the market town of Northallerton in North Yorkshire. My husband retired 18 months ago and at first seemed to think that being a 'house-husband' means being a TV critic!! He is now in a routine and can be officially called a 'house husband'. I am amazed at the amount of people like me who can fall for a piece of fabric or cup and saucer like a first love!! Blogging has opened my world to so many lovely and talented people and I am continually inspired to visit all the lovely places in the UK that they all live. I don't have time to update much plus I don't lead a very exciting life but the time I do get on the PC is spent reading about others.
Interests Needlepoint, soft furnishings, charity shops, fleamarkets, ebay!, vintage, old books, fabric, fabric and more fabric!, house magazines, Farrow & Ball, Laura Ashley, dreaming of part time working!
