Hi Vicky!

Lovely to e-speak to you. Sorry I haven't been in touch. I hear you're coming to see Henry V, which is so nice of you. I'm excited about what Emily's doing and I love it when the theatre's full of children!!! My favourite time of year. How are things with ACA? Very sorry I have failed to connect with you on that, it's just been a bit bonkers over the past few months. Let me knwo when you're coming to see the show, maybe we could have a glass of wine xxx
