Sophie moved from Seattle to Edinburgh after graduating at Western Washington University this summer.\n\nSophie has been picked to join the Scottish Water Polo team, and will be representing Scotland in the EU Nations Championship in The Czech Republic next weekend! \n\nPlease can you tell Sophie how proud we are of her success, and how much we’ve enjoyed having her stay with us in Scotland. Please also send my brother Neil and sister-in-law Alison in Bothell all our love. \n\nIt would be a huge surprise if you could play Siouxsie and the Banshees for Sophie on KEXP, our favourite radio station. \n\nLoving the tunes!  \n\nHelen and Iain\n==\nThe band recruited a 27-piece orchestra by the name of the “Chandos Players,” which played strings from a piece written by Siouxsie Sioux that originated on piano (which itself was originally called “Baby Piano”).","location":1,"location_name":"Default","play_type":"trackplay"}
