Our present to Vanessa-Mae for her 26th birthday

[Xanthippe]

I handed to Vanessa-Mae our present for her 26th birthday during the signing session that took place immediately after the concert in the Royal Festival Hall on October 21st. The present included a list with questions regarding some issues to our concern.

Vanessa-Mae promised mne that she would see that her answers to our questions would be delivered to me.

Unfortunately up till now, I received no answers from Vanessa-Mae.

Today I called with Vanessa-Mae's office in London and talked to her assitant Giles Holland. Giles told me that he was present at the signing session and that he remembred the present very well.

Giles told me that Vanessa-Mae did see to it that her answers would be delivered to me correctly. Vanessa-Mae even informed later to find out whether it had been done indeed. Unfortunately, another female assistent whose job it is to take care of things like this left the office around that time. Since Vanessa-Mae and Giles have hardly been in the office because of the busy promotion activities around Europe and Asia, they lost track of the matter and the fact that the answers were not sent o me remained unnoticed.

Giles gave his email address and I have sent our questions to him once again. He assured me that I will get the answers and he told me that Vanessa-Mae is very eager to have this properly done. He asked me to be patient since the office in almost closed until January next year. He said to me to call again if no answers woulkd arrive early January 2005.

Thank you Rijko for keeping us up to date,
I was beginning to wonder what had happened about the answers.
but i thought nothing of it because last year we needed to wait.
Yet it is good to know that Giles and Vanessa have not forgotten

Thanks for following up Rijko. I can't tell you how cool it is that she is willing to answer questions for us and has taken the time to make sure it happens!
