Hopelijk 🙏 blijf je dit nog een hele tijd doen , zo houden we Barbara’s Legacy in leven … Het is een eer om met iemand contact te hebben gehad die haar daadwerkelijk heel goed heeft gekend …!!! Bedankt Rob …
Hoi Rob , hartelijk bedankt voor het uitzoeken… Jammer dat er niks te vinden is daarover ! Ook nog bedankt voor het in leven houden van deze website en Barbara’s nagedachtenis!! Ze word nog steeds vreselijk gemist ..!!
Beste Rob , Barbara was eind juni 1983 voor enkele optredens in Amsterdam. Ik hoopte dat je mij kon vertellen in welke zalen/ theaters ze hebben opgetreden , want ik kan dat nergens achterhalen… Alvast bedankt en groetjes ..
Hoi Richard, ik heb gezocht in ieder digitaal krantenarchief waar ik toegang toe heb, maar geen enkele meld iets over deze europese toer. Geen aankondiging, oproep of recensie. Zowel niet in London, Parijs of Amsterdam. Ik denk dat de publiciteit over deze optredens alleen verspreid werd onder de Chinese gemeenschap en dat dit nooit is gedigitaliseerd. Ik had ook gehoopt op meer foto's over deze optredens, maar helaas daar heb ik ook niks van gevonden.
Hi Alex, I never managed to get in contact with anybody or read an interview with someone who was a friend of Barbara (during her schooldays in Hong Kong or when she returned to Hong Kong in 1982) except with her first boyfriend (not the one mentioned in that video). I think this can have two reasons, either her friends do not want to talk about her or Barbara did not have any close friends, which is consistent with her life in Cambridge and London. It was very difficult for her to form a friendship with either an English or Chinese person.
So to answer your question, I have no information about Janet. By the way that video is kind of mix up from different love stories with a very romantic sauce over it. So don’t value it too much.
Thank you for all the Barbara content put together in one place. I was really touched by the TVB video of her first love. Have you ever try to get in contact with Barbara's first love?
I only knew about her first love but I never found out who he actually was. I did ask around and I was told that he did exist. But somehow nobody could remember his name. I think he never realized how much impression he made on Barbara.
Hi Rob. Thank you for posting so many stories about Barbara and you. This is simply awesome! I hope your biography will be published soon. I wish you and your family all the best!
Hi Rob, Thank you for making this website. I have been following Barbara's news since I was a little girl. Now I am 45 years old and living in the Netherlands. I am also looking forward to your book. In fact I was thinking that I might be able to translate it into Chinese. :) The story you wrote about Barbara is beautiful. It is so good to know that someone in this world still thinks about her. All the best, Juliette
Hello Juliette, Thank you for your compliment. And also thanks for offering to translate. But the book will take a long while to finish. Meanwhile I be publishing a (short) memory about Barbara soon. Maybe you can translate that for me.
Thanks Rob for writing all these so that I could get to know Brabara from a different way. Since I have known about this website, once in a while, I would go through the website. Would love to assist in translating your short memory into Chinese when you published.
Thank you so much for creating this website! It's really magical to all those who love her. Thank you!
Hi Rob, I really admire the time and effort that you devoted to this website, and I am so moved by the stories you shared. I could probably understand how Barbara felt, or why her personality had two sides: so lovely independent while also fragile, as I also grow up with single parent and moved to a different country. It is very sad that she passed away at such a young age, but she was so lucky to have someone like you who was so gentle and caring to her in her life. Wish you and your family all the best:)
