Chatty Cat Cafe

I'd forgotten I'd done this interview with Susanne Saville at the Chatty Cat Cafe, but it suddenly popped up on my radar this morning!

I finally got a chance to read it - interesting I had received a notice on this over at goodreads. Heavens that picture of receiving the BT award though. Myself, I hate it when old old pictures get drug out even if they were my younger days (especially the ones with the shag hairdo and pre-braces) :)

I don't know quite what happened there. I did the interview - Sharon Kay Penman put the blog person onto me (she's lovely - well they both are :) ) and I gave the interview long before Christmas. She asked me for photos, which I sent, including some of Taz and Jasper and Dottie. These here are off my website and my news blog. I can only assume they didn't get through, or went missing or some such.
My hair was really, really short in those days. Mind you I had it cut last week, but not to that level in the Prince Charles photo. 1990 eh, and my first time around with The Wild Hunt. My kids had just turned 7 and 4. Now one's married and other's been in a relationship for over a year!

I've just put up some temporary photos of the little darlings so that you can see them in all their glory. It's just a blog I created for my personal use to store a few non writerly pics for other applications - so there's a couple of wedding photos up too.

What cuties, although I think the pic with the dog and the cat on opposite sides of the sofa needs a good caption and then be submitted to LOL cats.

I LOVE the photos! I can never get enough of other people's pictures. What was the cat-shaped object on the bride's arm? A clutch?
