Dearest Mimi, I will never forget our fun filled days in Koh Samui....which always began with your skype messages, announcing that you had bagged my favourite place on the beach. You would say, "Madame, your sun bed awaits you," and lo and behold, I would appear from two rooms away, to find that you had laid out fresh towels and lots of gossipy magazines for us to browse through, during the day. One day, you set off on a practice swim for your Shek Ko fundraiser, where you asked me to "spot" you in the sea. I thought you would do a few lengths in the sea and be back fairly soonish, but no Mimi, you swam and you swam, until I could no longer see you.....you went for blooming miles! When you did finally emerge from the sea, you were greeted by the hotel staff, who were about to set off in their canoes to find you! This was the start of our friendship. I miss you Mimi and send you very much love, always. xxx
