Of Course!

.
My wife says that duvet covers are awkward to change and, on the odd occasion when I’ve been called to assist by holding the duvet inside its cover by the corners while she tussles with the rest, I have to agree that she is right.

But now a 43-year-old lady, Joyce Burt, from Leeds has come up with an invention that hits you as being so obvious, you wonder why someone else didn’t come up with the idea years ago. And that is to have buttons round three sides of the cover instead of one!

The young lady made covers for her friends who liked them so much she patented the design and launched her own company which sells hundreds online and in local stores. Now her invention could make her a fortune when her covers are sold through high street stores.

As the meerkat in the television advert says, ‘Simples!’
