Sally Kettle, Charity Ambassador.
"I really can’t thank you enough for playing for us at London zoo on Valentine’s day! You went a long way towards making it the most perfect surprise proposal; it still hasn’t quite sunk in. I wish that we could relive the day and be able to sit and watch you play Paradise all the way through again. If you’re playing when I’m next in London, I’d love to see you."
James, Surprise Proposal, London Zoo.
