"I find it so hard to know what the best products would be for us to make, sometimes..."
"I know, I mean - some are obvious, like the Great British Tea Cosy, but some are less so - I mean, with the demise of plastic bags, would we ever consider making plastic bag holders?"
"Exactly. And also, frankly, I just want to make EVERYTHING out of fabric. Everything in the world."
"Like what?"
"Cake tins, glasses case, cars, walls...."
"I think maybe that's going a bit far. The cakes wouldn't stay moist, silly."
"So let's just get the alphabet to decide what we make."
"Oooh! Yes! And our customers. And Facebook. They will have The Answers We Seek"
And we are delighted to announce the results of our highly professional market research on what products we could viably add to our portfolio, yes, yes....

Thanks Anne. Yes, sometimes there's a little bit too much chuckling, and not enough work gets done round here. *Arms crossed, nods sagely*
(But we loves it...and we ARE the boss, so WHATEVER!!)
Of course you can have a zebra bag - it's made out of animal print! And anyway, children have toy zebras and we know how they're always yelling that they need a special bag to keep them in! But, ummmmmm, isn't umbrella holder just a tiny bit desperate? How about Under-bed stash container?
He he! That is true, children are well-known for their yelling demands for zebra bag. Fact.
