Chris and I checked _Cloudbusting_ using the keywords "mother," "kids,"
and "children" and found quite a few entries.  I was wrong.  Kate did
say this:

"I don't see myself as maternal"  (Cloudbusting 3A - keyword "children"
                                   starting line 1,469.  From an article
                                   called "What Kate Bush Did Next" 1985)
                                                                    ^^^^
Mea culpa (or whatever)

However, if I don't know Cloudbusting by heart, then neither do you,
Mr Ford. (Who does, other than Ron and IED?)  Your "I take it you have
not read 'Cloudbusting'" rankled a little.  Have *you* read the *whole*
thing?  A simple "In Cloudbusting she said she didn't see herself as
maternal.  I don't remember exactly where at the moment but I'm sure 
I saw it" would have sufficed.  Read on...

A couple of paragraphs later (line 1,506) Kate says this:

"I suppose I am quite maternal, and it's something I'd like one of these
days"  (referring to having children.  From _Musician_ interview 1990)
                                                                 ^^^^

1985 ----> 1990 ----> 1995 (buys a big, roomy house...why?)

It's a lady's perogative to change her mind, especially when there's a
biological clock involved.  It's a theory.  Nothing more, nothing less.
It is mine.  That's all.  Ok bye.
