ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This book brought the team back together in the studio and also brought a new publishing and design team to the task. For their efforts I would like to thank:

The great team cooking my food: Sarah Swan – old hand, she still has it – and Mike Clift – fabulous young cook who is joining the Rockpool Qantas Consulting team. Nice work.

Stephanie Young, my PA, for all the effort getting me in the right place at the right time.

Sue Hines, Publishing Director. I did my very first book with you in the ’90s – good to give it another go twenty years later.

Diana Hill – your patience and calm disposition got the best out of us.

Claire Grady – nice bit of project management, we did set a crazy deadline.

Hugh Ford – nice clean design and thanks for making the book I imagined.

Earl Carter and Sue Fairlie-Cuninghame – what can I say? Your creative insight make me look good and as always, I’m so pleased with your work, as well as your friendship. Big kisses.

And the biggest kisses of all to my chicks Samantha, Josephine, Macy and Indy. You make my life full of beautiful women… wonderful.
