In memory of Joan and Reg Parker who encouraged me to follow life’s creative spark.

With fond memories of Chris Nicholls

With many thanks to: Dan Parsons for your beautiful harmonies, inspirational guitar playing – I was so fortunate to have your accompaniment on this album; Robin Waters for your astute listening ear, talented musicianship and creative input in capturing these songs and of course the cups of chai! Thankyou both for helping me realize my long term goal; Garry Streker for your therapeutic support and wisdom; Valentina Bilogan for friendship, borscht and swims; Phil Heuzenroeder, Bee Hatfield and Eva Popov for your feedback and encouragement at wild@heart; Jenny, Matthew, Jonathan Parker who’ll remember this cover photo’s Numurkah weekend; Martin, Ruth and Sebastian Steele for your love and support and Kate Parker my #numberonefan , for all the love and encouragement.
