A long time ago I asked a friend
to make me some bathroom curtains.
She had never made curtains
for anyone else before
so it was hard work persuading her.
But she did. And I paid her.
And then she made some more.
And eventually she had a company
which supported her family
and then she employed people
who supported their families.
I'm kind of proud of that.
And I still love the curtains.

'curtains' normally means the end not the beginning but not in this case
