You are supposed to take photos pre grub not post grub.

Mrs Ex-Ascot outside our last Raki place in the main village before walking up the mountains to the house and writing by oil lamps at home, Stroumbos, Amorgos. And, folk think that we live like peasants here! That is not me by the way. His name is 'Ouzo' Michalis.

Re: Photos of Everybody
Don't normally do much of this photo stuff but since the event was my son's wedding and there were professional photographers hovering around taking shots of every darn thing that moved Memsahib and myself were included.
Nice place, the kids rented all of a small hotel for the event and our accommodation was in one of the teepee type structures in the background, quite a pleasant concept. As you will note the location is on the tropical side of things so dining was al-fresco after the ceremony. As the mother and father of the groom we were slightly more formal than the rest of the guests (who were mostly half our age). Our son now flies for United and several of his pilot friends who attended the wedding used to fly with him in A'stan. His new wife is a mid-level executive in some weird company called Amazon.
Memsahib and self are coming up to our 50th anniversary in September, I always complain that the wedding made me miss the BoB displays.

Sise,
Rather archaic I admit. I got the kit made by one of the old military tailors in Hong Kong (magnificent individual, Sikh, tall, straight backed, polite, honest - sort of fellow you would like along side you in a cavalry charge).
Nice thing is that that was 25 years ago and I can still wear the clothes without alterations.

I think that earlier pic of you OFSO looking like a lawyer about to go inside the pub to celebrate getting John Barsad sentenced to hang at the Old Bailey for treason was more...you!

I alternate between the Church and the Law. Next costume will be a bone suit for Halloween. A normal formal black suit with a skeleton hugging me. Skeleton has been purchased, is in my bag for the Eurostar trip on Thursday. Next year's Festival de Trobadors I'm going for the Biggie. Yes, as the Pope.

Oneself with "her indoors" on her 50th cake day while sailing in Croatia a few weeks back. Yes, pirate themed party on the boat in the port of Maslinica on Solta Island.
Life may not be the party you hoped for, but while you're here, you may as well dance.
