Thanks are due to many people for their help and assistance in making this book: everyone at Ebury, especially Jake Lingwood who first suggested we do it. Elen Jones and Lisa Pendreigh who made it happen despite our best efforts. Tess Henderson, Caroline Butler and Lucy Harrison. And Zoe Bather who designed the book.
Our literary agent Jo Unwin for her perseverance and her assistant Milly Reilly for her patience. At House of Tomorrow, David Girvan and Chandni Lakhani for helping to organise everything, Jo Kay our long-standing Head of Production who kicks everything into shape and Nick Irving who makes that shape legal.
And Jason Arnopp, for enduring our tedious witterings and making sense of them.
On a personal note I [Annabel] would like to thank my parents, Susan and Glen, for their endless love and support. But most importantly I have to thank my children, Arthur, Beatrice and Magnus, for being the best huggers in the whole world and their father, Craig, for being a worthy runner-up.
Whereas I [Charlie] would like to thank MY parents, my wife Konnie for constantly withstanding my bullshit and my offspring Covey and Huxley for refusing to withstand it at all.
