Hugh Hemmings here. We met at a course in Cardiff last year - remember? My main acting challenge was the swinging corpse directed by Tom Conti. I was in Wales recently (a screening in Port Talbot) and I tried to contact you but you seem to be well hidden. If you remember me give me a call on 07818 417890 and we'll swap news.
