Various bits and pieces

A few mini updates today. On the site, the "Pic-ography" pages are now up to date (I think) with everything that would have been previously mentioned on the news pages. Over on Twitter, Sophie has recently offered herself and hubby as a "prize" for the Esmes Allstars charity - there was a black tie do of sorts on Friday which included an auction whereby you could get Sophie to come and read to your children. As my wife and I only have Greyhounds, we were thus exempt. However, Sophie has taken a leaf out of our book by adopting a dog, rather than paying several grand for a 'fancy' breed, and you can see the latest addition to her family on Instagram. Meanwhile, in retro TV news, the now "quite old" Sky Arts TV series is only just getting it's premiere overseas, as "Portrait Artist Of The Year" is showing in the USA on the Ovation TV network. The episode where the competitors got to paint Sophie is on on November 15th.
