UPDATE from my English friend, Gareth Hedges:
Hi Kate, got a friendly call from Sue today to say yes it's fine to use her photo's. When I suggested that she could send a cd to me she said that would be difficult and asked if Peter in Germany could make a copy for you. Also to use her words she is closing her nursery and going to 'recoup' for a few months which seems to say she has been unwell or is having an op.
So, here is permission to use her photos. I will write her a letter thanking her.
