Greetings from Berlin

I've been a terrible correspondent, but I have been having fun! Off to the Berlin Music Festival today and tomorrow which is held in an old airport in Templehof

A few random observations from my time in the UK

A few random observations at one running my own crafty and creative retail business and workshops:

• Handmade crafts are difficult to find in London. Most crafts upon closer observation are actually factory produced.
• Craft classes and studios are big business with classes ranging from sewing to DIY products.
• Sadly, Urban Outfitters and Anthropologie clothes are really of appalling quality, particularly considering the price they are retailed at.
• Many items look far better online than in person.
• Women's trainers are difficult to find in colours besides white and pink (argh) if tou want something a bit better than cons but not too expensive.
• There will always be a market for good cheese and bread.
  
• Books are hugely overpriced in Australia (my husband has his own publishing company and I know how much he makes from the books he sells and it's almost nothing).
• Since I have been away (nearly two months) three of my retail stockists have closed down in Australia.
