Like the prosaic personal trainer you are, many thanks for whipping Ringle Tingle Tiger into shape some 14 years ago.
all the best and needless to say..."Love your work"

Hello Helen,
Your ears may have been burning this afternoon. I was fortunate enough to hear Shaun Tan speak about his oscar winning short film today and while getting a book signed afterwards I told him my story of walking into your office one day to show off my folio and walking out with the Faraway Fairies job. Well, that's how I remember it anyway. He spoke kindly of you, of course.
I hope "retired" life is treating you superbly.
Best regards,
Andy (Andrew) Smith
