00 in the afternoon after my lunch I used to nap for a few hours. This was the time Latha, Kumaran’s wife would come for her bath. Kumaran always ac...ompanied her. When Latha came out of the bathroom she used to be only in her blouse and petticoat but since Kumaran was around I never dared to really come out of my room and look.

I never wanted to be a. .. think I would find that a pleasure."Her voice was very soft as she replied. "I am sure that I will."CateThe rehearsals were done. It's not often that I looked forward to rehearsing, but this was special. First of all I had a band behind me of really good professional musicians many of whom I knew from sessions in the studio.
