Barbara is wonderful. We originally met at a Tiki party in London, and at the time I was sorry we didn't get to spend even more time together - since then, however, we have continued to write to each other, and I have loved every corrispondence. I am very excited for the day that I will see her again, and I hope it won't be too long! ANYONE who has a chance to meet my friend will be lucky!!!
