I am also grateful to my wonderful siblings Owen and Gareth for allowing me to be the middle child, and Kate, for being such an inspiration. As for my late grandparents; Rhoda, Cyril, Charlie, and Elsie, I am in awe of your wisdom and kindness. Cyril, aka, 'Little Grandad', your polemics on equal pay had such a formative influence. Zainah, you proof-read this book in its nascent state and made me tea; enough said. I couldn't' have done it without you. Sooty, I miss you. Potem, you are acceptable as a cat"-- Provided by publisher.
