Henry R. Rollin has submitted this personal insight into the rich life of Linford Llewelyn Rees, whose obituary appeared in Psychiatric Bulletin, November 2004, 28, 428.

It may seem surprising, even contradictory, to learn that Linford, cerebral as he most certainly was, as a young man was passionately devoted to ballroom dancing: to such a degree, indeed, that he, partnered by his then fiancée, Katherine, were renowned competitors, and, not infrequently, winners of ballroom dancing competitions held in Wales. Cash prizes were particularly welcome to augment the then slender financial resources.
