Two weeks ago, the first ever TexStyle Festival threw open its doors at Manchester Central. It was an amazing weekend of creativity, community and lots and lots of chatting! It was the idea of the mother and daughter team behind the Buxton, Cumbria & Stafford Wool Gatherings, (Michelle Greaves and her Mum, Carole) to create a bigger show encompassing other textile and fibre crafts in their home town of Manchester.It did not disappoint, it featured dozens of stands showcasing beautiful crafts and items to buy, a range of fabulous workshops, a break-out zone called ‘The Hive' where visitors could escape the busyness and just sit and chat and even work on their wips. Plus there was a Textile Talks stage hosted by yours truly which showcased some fabulous creative folk speaking on their specialist subjects. I was thrilled and very honoured to be asked to host the Textile Talks stage, and loved every minute of it. In this episode you can hear from all of the speakers who stepped up to the mic over the weekend along with other exhibitors too.My thanks to everyone who spoke to me for this episode of Making Stitches Podcast!

On August 9, 1975, 20-year-old Jane Smith vanished from her Sudbury apartment without a trace. Fifty years later, her family is still living with the pain of not knowing what happened. In this episode, I speak with two people at the center of this decades-old mystery: Jane's younger brother, John Smith, and his daughter, Katie. John shares what it was like to lose his sister and how her disappearance has shaped his family's lives over the past half-century. Katie, who never met her aunt, has taken on a different role... part investigator, part advocate... working to keep Jane's story alive and urging anyone who knows the truth to come forward before it's too late.

When we think of movies with Hollywood defining legacies, Mr. & Mrs. Smith wouldn't be the first that springs to mind.A fun, comedic mid-2000s action flick, capitalising on the chemistry of its two stunningly beautiful leads; it became the movie that defined a generation of celebrity culture, and sold hundreds of thousands of gossip magazines.But it all could have been very different, had it not been for The Stepford Wives.The film's inception, a chaotic filming schedule that resulted in significant budget overruns, and a constantly changing script pale in comparison to the media circus that followed Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, affectionately given the portmanteau 'Brangelina', and how their relationship flourished as they played married assassins; oblivious to each other's secret lives until they're pitted against one another to finish their respective jobs. Not to mention his previous marriage failing at about the same time they were filming this movie - surely it's all a coincidence?Their journey from co-stars to Hollywood power couple to eventually married and sharing six children would not lead to their happily ever after, unlike John and Jane Smith.I would love to hear your thoughts on Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005) !Verbal Diorama is now an award-winning podcast!

Four Types Of Food That Make You SmellPeople with the rare disorder trimethylaminuria can give off a fishy odor after eating seafood.Vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage contain sulfur that escapes through breath, sweat, and gas.Spices like curry and cumin send volatile oils into the bloodstream, then out through sweat glands, leaving a lingering aroma.Red meat can also boost odor by releasing proteins that react with skin microbes.Biggest Thing Successful Couples DoRelationship expert Jane Smith says that the secret to a happy relationship is simple…and not a surpriseShe believes couples who talk openly and honestly can better understand each other's needs and feelingsShe advises setting aside time each day to talk without distractions, like phones or TV, to build a stronger connectionTiming Your Shower Can Help You SleepTaking a warm shower one to two hours before bed helps your body temperature drop, which signals your brain it's time to sleep. This matches your natural body clock and can help you fall asleep faster and sleep better. Evening showers also have a creative bonus. When your mind is relaxed, you might come up with new ideas or solutions to problems you've been thinking about. If you need better sleep, try warm evening showers. If you want more energy in the morning, cold morning showers work well.Second Date UpdateTori and Evan went for Mediterranean food in Jack London Square. Tori said Evan was sweet, artsy, and “had poet energy.” It really matched her vibe. She thought the date was very sweet and was sure there would be a second date, but Evan has disappeared.
