I used to make a lot of tiaras ten or fifteen years ago. I made them for brides and their bridesmaids. Sometimes I used very special AA grade gemstones that made me hyperventilate. I wove miniscule pearls and silver wire together to make delicate crowns that I liked to imagine Audrey Hepburn wouldn’t have minded wearing. I did this in the evenings. During the day I was an intellectual property consultant in Silicon Fen with a brief case and scary heels. Secretly I wanted ‘making tiaras’ to be my job.

I share your aversion to Lacrosse, by the way. I was on a nasty damp playing field just outside the walls of Chester, wishing I were half-way to Liverpool!
