The life motto Nicola stated was very apparent when I saw her at the Albert Hall last year - really kind and giving person, and with a fantastic talent. Not doing too bad then!
Good beginnings set our course. She has been afforded a good beginning and taken her learning in a good direction. A good lesson for those attempting to become part of such a turgidly throbbing society.
"turgidly throbbing society"? Sorry, but that sounds like a classic for the Private Eye satirical magazine's Pseuds Corner. What on earth did you mean by that?
What a lovely person and what a shame her talk was somewhat overshadowed by the incessant violin in the background (now somebody tell me it was her playing!)
