Boat tripping






As you can see, we had fun on Saturday night. It was a stag and hen do for three couples. We have all got so many weddings this year that we are now starting to double things up in order to free up the calendar!

We hired a private boat and sailed around the coast off Tarragona acting like fools for a few hours. There are many far more incriminating photos but I won't embarrass the girls by publishing those. But to give you a clue, we made the couples choose a photo from a porn mag and then reinvent the position for us (fully clothes of course - but still extremely embarrasing for them). It was hilarious.

The picture of Jose and two friends in similar stances is their interpretation of the Haka (the dance of the Kiwis). The singing came later. Whenever Jose is drunk in Tarragona he always makes everyone go to karaoke and he always makes his friends sing but then hogs the microphone himself. Its no surprise to any of us now - totally par for the course. This week the surprise was for a poor chap called Juan who kept getting up to do a number but kept getting his five minutes of fame gate crashed by our lot. Juan was one of those eyes closed, contorting face, christina aguilera types who fancied himself as a real singer and was taking this as seriously as was possible with four or five drunken fools jumping up behind him and grabbing the second microphone to give him an unwanted and unnecessary hand. Poor Juan.

I got away without singing this week. Often I am forced but I think Jose was too drunk to remember to try and embarras me and just carried on with enjoying himself.

After the karaoke we hit the dance floor in local club. Fede had taken off his girlfriend's underwear by this time (that he had been wearing over his own clothes, and at one point instead of his own clothes). You wouldn't imagine this of a politician and lecturer in law would you but I kid you not he is the balmyist thing I have ever seen. He is often prone to a spot of drunken ballet dancing (I must clarify that he has no previous experience or training). Lets see what he gets up to at the wedding this weekend. Watch out for him. He's the one in the photo with the maximum 4 people sign held over his privates. His girlfriend is the most serene, pretty, lady like girl of the group. Chalk and cheese.

Right I shall get back to packing my suitcase for my honeymoon and fretting over any last minute arrangments for the wedding. Yesterday we had no elecricity for the marquee and the wrong size tables .......but I have sorted it all out now. Lets see what today brings!
