Angela can play the fiddle! She has a secret previous life as a musical prodigy child wonder which I didn’t learn about until I had known her for many months. But, on certain occasions, usually involving a bit of the drink, she will break out the fiddle and play Fiddle Name That Tune. I love hearing Ave Maria played at twice normal speed at 3 in the morning after a game of Trivial Pursuit (which itself comes after a game of Vodka Taste Test) has fallen apart due to people throwing the game pieces at each other. That is my idea of a perfect night out.

Another thing you should know about Angela… never never never bring up the fiddle playing. She will kill you, and, worse than that, she will refuse to play. It is advised to simply wait for it to happen. And it will, if you are patient. Yes, it will!
