At.her very first’ music. festival, when she was six, she "played a piece called ‘'The Lit- tle Mouse.” And - you should have seen her. Under her left eye she had the biggest little mouse ever hatched — size of a rat. The day before, in a rush for the teacher’s desk, with a brilliant ‘ piece ‘of art work or’ summat, she had collided head- on with a little boy. She had an eye like a rainbow with a hang- over. , is Another year, she got the flu’, and -played with a temperature of 102.
