Hi Richard and everyone, Thanks for the twitter link, the visit was to receive a cheque for £5,000 from The Argus Appeal and the photo shows Hayley and Dame Vera sitting in on a lesson at the school. I have pulled all this together with a short report here on the HWI website. Cheers, Dave |

I've always thought of trousers as men's clothing. But yes, they are pretty! |

That's why I don't use Firefox, if I can help it. The little red squiggles that appear everytime I make a typo drive me nuts. i.postimg.cc/9fYxy370/smilie-big-grin.gifYes, I think it is one of her favorites. Remember the shopping excursion she did with that lady in Taiwan late last year? (The one where she wears that black dress with the white hearts on it) She pulled out her daily planner, or whatever it was, and it was purple, and she said "I love purple..." |

Hello Libby! Next time you're using Firefox, click on 'Tools' at the top left, then 'Options' and 'Advanced'. Under 'Browsing' you can untick the box against 'Check my spelling as I type'.  Richard |

Lovely picture of Hayley with the new DVLT Chairman Peter Sutton on the front page of the Spring 2012 DVLT newsletter. Peter towers head and shoulders above Hayley, who clearly had forgotten her trademark heels that day.  Martin D |

The photo wasn't from the last time she was there, but the time before. I distinctly remember that outfit from the photos from the last time she was there. Not the most recent time, where she was wearing those pretty pinkish purple pants.
