During one of Fred’s visits to Europe he was sitting talking with Peter in an empty theatre, while the stage was being set up for a concert. Peter’s wife Anthea came in to join them, at which point Fred leapt to his feet to offer Anthea his seat. Every other seat in the thousand seater auditorium was empty, but Fred made sure that Anthea got his. As Peter said – the ultimate gentleman.Wee Tommynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35422342.post-18078652137448132612009-07-30T18:34:48.398-04:002009-07-30T18:34:48.398-04:00Bob, those recordings are great, too.
