Sound of Music


We went with friends to Paul and Sheilagh Taylor's house for a "Sound of Music" evening. We all dressed up and sang along to the songs as we watched the film. The film was actually great. Kath had never seen it.
When I was a child and we went to Germany for our holidays we often met Rangheld (a schoolfriend of my mother) and her son Christian. They would stay in our hotel for a few days. The hotel was on the beautiful lake Tegernsee. Rangheld's late husband was Wolfgang Reinhardt. Wolfgang was the son of Max, a very famous film director. Wolfgang bought the film rights of the story of the von Trapp family from Maria von Trapp for $10000. A bargain. Kath and I met Rangheld for lunch when we were staying with my Uncle and Aunt at Ammersee in 1978. She was charming.
