NJ Chicaa @NJChicaa (127783) • United States 7h

I haven't seen her in awhile due to our combination of health issues. My neighbor cleaned the apartment a couple of times but I think she's pissed at me for only sending her $200 for keeping an eye on the cats for 3 weeks. I...

Judy Evans @JudyEv (386902) • Rockingham, Australia 25 Aug

The photo shows a bust of David Helfgott. The sculpture is in the dining area of the Mundaring Hotel in Western Australia where David would often regale diners with his incredible piano-playing. I don’t know how well known...

Judy Evans When he played, he made strange facial expressions and various groaning, grunting noises so he was a very controversial figure. Some said he wasn't that talented but he could certainly play up a storm.
