Why?

I'm a Damawyn.

Damawyn is a Cornish word for Granny - it means 'Fair Dame', and was used only for the most senior matriarch in the family, as a sign of respect. My mother was known as Damawyn to my sons as they grew up, and now I am the Damawyn... 'there can be only one!!!'
This is my second attempt at a blog (wasn't impressed with my efforts on Tumblr).
I was going to call this Damawyn's Druthers - lovely word - and not one I'd heard before. Preferences, choices, selections, it means. So here you will find the special druthers of a Cornish granny in exile, in this, my second, tentative, blog.
The focus will be on beautiful, weird or unusual items I have found in my antiques hunt... in particular those I have had most success with... but there will be a miasma of other bits of my daily life, observations and thoughts...

Newbie blogger alert....

Testing, testing...

OK - first thoughts - somewhere to catalogue all my wonderful antique finds... and to include sections on my other interests, which range from the global to the stupidly specific...
