Hi Ed,
Am a nanny (heaven knows how I arrived at 55 so quickly??)of six and more on the way .(all my own fault having produced 6 sons now 23 to 31!)I live in Bexhill in the Old Townand have just (having waited 6 years on the Rother list!)got a beach hut number 29,East Parade ,now renamed ‘The Wendy House ‘. We all love it especially the little ones,but I couldn’t find a book ANYWHERE in Bexhill re the seaside (apart from your The Shell Collector ‘) Love your books and have given them to lots of my friends and families.Any hope of writing a book aimed at 3 to 100!! with pictures of the different shells/stones/wildife on the beach so they could find the real thing on the beach to match maybe?Would be great to have a story based on life in a beach hut we have a great time in it whatever the weather! Lots of scope for imaginative stuff !!Mentioned this gap in the market to the staff at The De La Warr ‘and they said they would contact you maybe.Then found your website myself so thought I would send you an email. Sitting in The Wendy House has even inspired me to write some poetry,should probably write one myself but couldn’t produce the wonderful illustrations that you do!! So hence this could you help email??
Many thanks !!!

Hi Ed
darn it! just wrote a long message, went away and think it has disappeared. dont remember hitting submit but if i did and this is a repeat, apologies.
Brilliant site. You know i love your work already - but i do require some girls in your life [told your wife at the Electric and she said rather painedly that she was doing her best, which made me laff].
Georgie, my lovely daughter in law, is due to produce my first grandchild - cant compete with Wendy; know her and shall look her up at No 29 - early in May. Hooray hooray. But what if it is a GIRL Ed?! Think your very artistic Sammy and Flynn need a girlfriend!
Hope to see you around soon at college.
All the best and congratulations on a wonderful new site.
