I am not at all obsessed by owls, the fact that I have two in my logo is purely accidental. But if I see a nice one in a charity shop (and there is always an owl of some sort in a charity shop) I will buy it. I was puzzled by the assortment of holes in this china owl until I realised what it was for, somewhere to keep my scissors and trendy string - of course, I don't know how I lived without it!
How can string be fashionable? I don't know! But I jumped on the bandwagon and ordered 300 metres of the stuff from ebay (at a bargain price from a butchers supplier). So consequently everything was tied and wrapped with trendy red and white string this Christmas, even the cake.
