Natasha's mobile phone number (after the carrier prefix) was an early part of the Fibonacci sequence. Naturally, this is something she noticed straight away and was very pleased with.

Thanks for everything Tash I am so very glad that I knew Natasha. She has had an enormous influence on my life. I met her at university in 1991 when I started engineering.

We still have that mirror, and those words remain – “Make...more
