Dear Eric,

We really feel for you old (well it feels like forever although our first meeting was relatively recent!)mate. It's amazing the amount of stress Mr Blockhead's Brigade have caused so many teaching friends of ours over recent years, and almost all of these have been good, highly dedicated teachers. Our discussions with you in Germany had us convinced in an instant that you had to be an extremely talented, caring and well-liked teacher.

I've alerted Her Ladyship's attention to this thread and she'll be sending you her own messages of support and appreciation.

Keep the faith and don't let it spoil your music too much..you've too much talent there as well to go wasted!

All the very best

Richard
