    I’ve just tried a pair of jeans on in a charity shop and wondered what the bulge behind my knee was. THE DONATOR’S PANTS. 😫

    ‘THE BUMP’ is off to uni in September. A very sad day for children’s books.

    Replying to @Baddiel
    My sons’ school drama evening - monologues - is cancelled. Can’t deny I punched the air in glee.

    Life seems to revolve round soft play centres, sourcing school play costumes and ferrying them around endlessly until suddenly, and just like that, it doesn’t.

    I started work at DK a whopping 28 years ago today and to celebrate here’s a picture of me at my desk around that time in a fetching shiny orange shirt (I had one in purple too!) with not a book in sight.

    When you walk 15 mins to the station in your Ascot finery and a lady comes up to you on the platform and whispers ‘your dress’. You are all set to take the compliments … and then she tells you it’s tucked in your pants 😱

    As a surprise for my dad’s 80th, I’ve edited his memoirs and a book made. He loved it! I couldn’t have done it without the help of wonderful @slhilderley and the ever-patient Nick and the team @IngramSpark

    I’m on my way back from a funeral so already on the heightened emotional spectrum and then I see a small boy( 4-5 I’d guess ) holding hands with his mum. His name boldly on show on his backpack - Otto Puddle. Please someone put him in a book.
