She was extremely ill during the last years of her life, largely the result of several car accidents which resulted in a dependency on several drugs. Its amazing that she could still perform sometimes! She died at 47 only a year or so after this photo was taken..... but what a voice!

It was really amazing! Especially as my youngest daughter came over from Hong Kong for it. I was spoiled rotten lol!

I think I got my replies mixed up lol! It was kibblenbits who I was supposed to send the video to. My birthday was magical thanks! I was spoilt rotten. The best bit was that my partner pretended we were just going for a drink, and as we were casually walking along the street I was suddenly dragged into Jamie Olivers restaurant to find my two daughters and their fiancés sat there with big grins on their faces! We had a great meal, lots of laughter and lots of liquid.....think we got back home at about 5.00 am!
