Many thanks to the people who read this book in its infancy and gave me massive support, particularly my fantastic mum and sister, Kerry and Elizabeth. Your belief in me leaves me lost for words.
Thank you to my fabulous friend Polly, for spending many hours reading through the early manuscript and offering your brilliant advice.
I am also hugely grateful to Shirley, Dan, Alison, Esther, Kedi, Kate and Niki – your thoughtful comments and feedback turned out to be exactly what I needed.
And thank you, Julia and Alex, for taking a chance and making this happen.
