This came from our dear ballet friends Gillian & Ian Bailey. Gillian took this photo when we were all at the York Ballet Summer School - such happy times! They both thought the world of Michael; being as passionate about the ballet as Michael would inevitably meet at performances – sometimes as much as three times in the same week! Gillian always said that watching out for & suddenly seeing the two of us was in some way part of the whole pleasure of the evening, since our delight in both the music & the dancing was as great as theirs. However, sometimes not and then there would be much discussion and rolling of eyes during the interval! I know they will always 'raise a glass' to Michael as one of the warmest & loveliest of people they were fortunate enough to know.
