| Christine Hughes - Talking Belt Syndrome - 29/8/2007
|
Had I known how much time and effort I have to devote to Belts would I ever have started my business. That’s a very good question. If you ask my husband who at the time was my boyfriend; his opinion is probably not printable, but then he did go through with the marriage so it can’t be all that bad. It does get slightly annoying that every room in the house has belts in it one way or another. I even managed to leave one in his underpant drawer the other day, easily done as we share the drawers and my belt drawer is next door to his underpant drawer so it was a simple mistake. He was not amused at my attempt at glib humour suggesting he was a closet cross dresser and he only had to ask if he wanted to wear one of my belts. I think it was the reference to being in touch with his feminine side that was a bit near the bone… I did feel a bit rotten as he has been a star supporting my new business and very understanding of my constant belt banter. How boring could that be for a guy? I mean shopping, babies (no I don’t have any but I believe it’s a very popular girlie topic), celebrity footballers wives (don’t get excited I was not suggesting we like talking football) … any topic a man can just about feign a bit of interest but precious stones and funky belts day in, day out, morning, noon and night…. That’s bordering on heroic.
Mental notes: Cook hubby favourite supper this week, colour code drawers in dresser, do press release for Hampshire Society magazine, send ‘cowhide’ Swarovski stone belt to Tara Palmer Tomkinson, show interest in his golf swing.
Back to work... more belts....
