Had she still been with us today Nico would have been celebrating her 75th birthday, as sadly she passed away after a fall from her bicycle in Ibiza in 1988, we'll have to celebrate without her. So, instead of our regular installment in the Originals series, I'm going to revisit some earlier posts as a birthday tribute to the beautiful, and puzzling, Nico.
