After trying to meet her since
April, my patience finally paid off.
I had previously invited her to
Ebru’s gigs but alas she couldn’t make it.
Her sister and brother in law had
arranged a charity event to raise money for the victims of Hurricane Sandy.
As soon as I found out she would
also be in attendance, I purchased tickets.
It was a great night’s
entertainment in the form of Xmas Songs, Songs from West End Musicals and even
some traditional entertainment from the Phillipines, which is where the
Montemayors originate from.
I saw Rhoda standing in front of
the table where I was seated so I got up to say hi, she’s one of the
friendliest people I ever met.
She thanked me for attending the
event and asked me where I was from as she recognised that I didn’t have a
typical English name, I explained to her that I’m a Turkish Cypriot.
She was nice enough to allow me
to have a photograph taken with her and also signed an autograph for me and
even offered to buy me a drink.
To top it all off I even won a
prize in the raffle, so all in all a really awesome night and the perfect end
to the best year of my life so far.
