red to blue
one thing that did filter through the red mist of rage that seems to be clouding my vision today was how nice it was to get visits today from a couple of folk who i had the good fortune to teach last semester. popping in, unannounced for no good reason other than to say hi, how's it going, isn't it cold? With one of these folk i also a lovely chat about wedding frocks (not my frocks i hasten to add...the less said about those the better). her's is going to be a pale blue raw silk whcih sounds lovely but i have to say that the nicest image of all came when the soon-to-be-bride told me that her wedding flowers would be whatever she picked from her mum's garden on the morning of the ceremony. isn't that the sweetest thing?? (thank goodness her mum doens't live in queensland---a bouquet of pineapples takes a bit of managing...)

it is my guilty secret that I am terribly interested in hearing about plans for other people's weddings. I especially fond of the ones with a nice touch like the flowers from the garden.

i have to confess i kind of love them too..(which goes someway towards explaining my largish collection of etiquette books...). and in fact both my own weddings were really kinda fab (it was just the actual, er, marriages, that were total nightmares). anyway my special favourite moment was the recessional music at the second one: the throne room scene from Star Wars: Episode 4. Shame about the wookie though....
