Well, hey ho, here we go. It’s our first drunken posting for
real. If I were a tropical storm, I wouldn’t count as storm-measure ‘wankered’,
but I am definitely a ‘pissed’ on the storm scale.
Today, Claire and I were lucky enough to have our first visitor! Charis Beverton wins
a gold star for being the first to come out to see us, though she did have 2
big advatnages in that a) She was in
Asia and b) She was in the same time
zone!. But, credit where credit’s due, she had to fly 4 hours to get here….which
is London to Istanbul. So no mean feat.
I love this picture, which isn’t the best I got of Charis at
the Peak complete with view, because it sums up how much of a bun fight the Peak
can be when it’s top tourist time. Why I love this shot:
-
The Chinese pair to Charis’ right barged in when
she had been there for a whie waiting for me to take the shot, entirely oblivious to
others
-
They have given the ‘V’ sig that every westerner
imagines is given in pictures in Asia. It’s no stereotype – it happens.
-
Charis herself is ignoring me and taking a
self-made pic for facebook; which I’m sure looks fab, but adds to the anarchy.
-
The lady to Charis’ left has been aggressively
hovering since she stood in this spot, and is now yawning her displeasure.
Sigh, making sense is hard. Bye bye. Sevens tomorrow. With wigs.
