ELIZABETH WINDER: You could tell she was different from the rest of the Rolling Stones groupies. When she returned to Munich in 1965, she was nothing like the normal Swing Sixties models - all knee socks, babydoll dresses, heavy eyeliner, and thick mascara.

As a huge shadow swam below me, it wasn't so much swimming as me being completely afraid. The dolphin and I met face-to-face the next day in shallower waters, and I was struck by its extreme kindness and compassion in its eyes.
