"I remember the first time I saw her back. It was in 1963. She sat in the booth beside me in Sid`s Cafe by Ealing Art School. I thought she was a much younger girl because she hunched her shoulders up and, from behind, seemed so small. When she stood up and walked out, I realised she was actually very tall and graceful, her face stunningly beautiful".
