So fairly normal then? How old is the car?

That is about average for a car that has a hot interior on start up. All of the air conduits are hot, the engine has to warm up the heater core, the AC compressor has to get going.

My only advice would be to take it to a shop, or get one of those home use recharging kits and see if it is low or leaking refrigerant. It is possible the belt is slipping on the AC compressor, but the serpentine belt should be changed somewhat regularly.
