Well, the things you learn eh?

25 random things is an exceptional effort. Those type of list are hard to do.

You should consider wearing your fascinator to Craft 2.0 - who said craft couldn't be glamorous.

True! My fascinator however is of unknown origin, so I will have to make one I can wear to Craft2 – or perhaps get Sue to make one for me.
