The King and Queen of Bhutan
May. 14th, 2007 04:07 pmDescribing my sister's (second) wedding yesterday, I said "Hisae and I dressed as the king and queen of Bhutan". (Actually, the real king of Bhutan is the one in orange here. He's apparently abdicating in 2008, so the position will be vacant.)
My gear was from an Indian store on the Karl-Marx-Strasse in Berlin, Hisae's from Armstrong's, a thrift store on Edinburgh's Grassmarket. Here's how we looked in my mum's living room on Saturday afternoon, just before the ceremony. Click the picture for a full-sized Hello magazine-style supersoaraway pull-out cut-and-keep version.

"You really shouldn't be upstaging your own sister on her wedding day..." retorted
kumakouji.
Ha! You don't know my sister! Nobody upstages my sister! That's the first thing them thar actresses learn at the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama -- how not to be upstaged by your brother! More photos (including one of my sister) at my Flickr page.

How awkward does that guy next to you look? Him, all in his grey suit and you, in Indian drag.
You were an elephant in the room" (http://www.banksy.co.uk/indoors/images/la_tai4.jpg) at that reception, I'm sure of it.

Date: 2007-05-14 04:20 pm (UTC)Quite interesting when you google Emma Currie. Seems like she's a sort of acting equivalent of Momus (unsurprisingly). Never made the big time, so has taken a sidewards step into peripheral activities. Only her peripheral activities are about theatrical role playing for corporate clients like BP! Hmmm.

Date: 2007-05-15 03:32 am (UTC)Congrats to your sister, Nick--may they have many happy years together. Your paw looks tastefully disheveled in the gray and pink (although I liked his hunting tweed suit more--that thing sent pangs of jealousy down my legs).

I was going to sell a bunch of my old Colours mags for food tonight, but I decided that would be foolish...

oh my
In last nights dream I went into a dark room with my friend/ex-receptionist at work. Then we visited an old man (that looked like Araki) who showed us his $100,000 piano. a giant animated cardboard crocodile crashed through the wall and dragged him away.
