This is a story that must be told. It tells the lifestyle and relationship problems of a woman in her sixties, involved with the romance of her gentlemen friends. No one knew the depth of her love, the loss of their relationship, and how difficult it was to recover.

From wine writer and tv presenter Hannah Crosbie, Corker will become the go-to guide that matches wine with life's important (and unimportant) events.

Louise Crosbie has taken everyday items such as a watering can, some doorknobs, a wooden tray and a picture frame and completely transformed them using decoupage papers, old book pages and paper napkins. The resulting items are then sealed with decoupage glue. This craft is very easy to learn and it is easy to personalise items and give them a new and refreshing look.
