We had a good laugh about it recently :) I agree about the beauty aspect. It's probably also why both my novels are set in the 60s and 70s...Vallypeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08309284606572565277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-46322045206094718182015-11-02T00:49:23.608-08:002015-11-02T00:49:23.608-08:00Hi Val! Thank you! Lovely to meet you too. I think...Hi Val! Thank you! Lovely to meet you too. I think being diplomatic also means we have to deal with a lot of the stuff other people don't want to handle, but I do try to be tactful about it. As for 'bleak', too much of that in the real world, I don't want to be guilty of dragging it into my fiction as well. Maybe that's the Taurean eye for beauty? When it comes to my temper, I think people who know me well have learned not to provoke me - apart from my middle child, who's a maverick anyway ;-)Valerie-Anne Bagliettohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01723076388057535678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-45849804133651841522015-11-01T09:25:58.889-08:002015-11-01T09:25:58.889-08:00Val, you and me both on everything here! I didn...Val, you and me both on everything here! I didn't mention the diplomacy bit in mine, nor the aversion to gritty, urban and bleak, but I'm with you there too. Most people don't believe me when I say I have a flaming temper, but only when pushed very hard, and like you, it's over very quickly. Nice to compare bullishness with another Val, and I'm so intrigued by the grown-up fairy stories, I shall now have to read one!Vallypeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08309284606572565277noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-65867990633808521952015-10-31T03:42:32.542-07:002015-10-31T03:42:32.542-07:00Haha, thanks Shelley!

Took my daughter to see it in the Disney Store in London when they were promoting the Cinderella movie. Bliss for both of us!Valerie-Anne Bagliettohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01723076388057535678noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7513470670765405287.post-2004207338218142102015-10-30T05:50:39.485-07:002015-10-30T05:50:39.485-07:00Val, you had me at fairy tales!
