Dear Cat,

Are you thinking of settling down yet? Do you think you might marry anyone?

Cherry

Dear Cherry,

I think I have a lot more to do before settling down with anyone. As you can imagine, it would be difficult to star in plays or travel the world with a baby clinging on to my back. As for marrying, my friends are sweet in their own ways and will support me in whatever I do, but I have not yet found anyone special.

Sincerely, Cat


To J-F,

What is it like being in charge of a whole court? You must feel very important, being the king of all your people.

Alice

Ma Cherie Alice,

I have a lot of responsibility, as I'm sure you know. Being the 'king' of my thieves mean that I must try my hardest to help them when they are in a fix – like when Annette wasn't quick enough with her pick-pocketing and got caught by the man. Important? Well, I suppose I am while the citizens of Paris care for my thoughts, but I am powerless if they turn their backs.

J-F


Dear Syd,

How did you feel when Cat rejected you? Do you like anyone else?

Amanda

Ye sure dig 'ard into my business, Amanda. I knew somewhere deep inside that there was no chance; we were too sibling-like. But a man's got to try, an' at least we're still friends. Nah, no one could top Cat. An' even if I did … my confidence has been dented.

From Syd


Thanks to all of you readers, but I have decided to stop for now. I may continue later on, if people send in more questions. So, until then, bye!
