Pam Ayres has a wonderful new collection of poems and anecdotes published this month by Ebury Press. You Made Me Late Again! is the third collection of her poems that Susan Hellard has had the pleasure in illustrating, the last being, The Works: The Classic Collection was published in 2010. This really is a lovely partnership, Sue’s pen & ink drawings set the tone beautifully and are a perfect foil for Pam’s witty observations of life.
