The Continuing Story of the Samba School and The Costume That Wouldn't Happen

Inspiration from the Notting Hill carnaval. Top picture formal, bottom one slightly more extravagant wear?

I think this one would be perfect for the shakers. I can see them weaving their way through the Bateria already...

In the same spirit, I wanted to post this link for some time. I think she looks like Claire ... in pink & green! Seriously, if we can get something like that going as well, that would be amazing!

you just happened to type in www.mixedlollies.com slash lola?????

I thought I was perverse, but it turns out I'm just plain bland!

(Claire, I'm not saying you look like anyone in my pictures - but I'm sure you'll give the second costume a try!) (well, after you're done with 3D naughts & crosses, of course. Priorities, got to get them right)

Claire said...

you've been talking to Marina, haven't you? She kicked my behind at that game. I just just don't have the competitive edge to win 3D naughts & crosses.

Marcel said...

is it the competitive edge, or is the 3D element? but yes, you were right about the source..;-)

Remko, a friend of mine is involved in a giant puppet group like that in Mt. Nebo, and she's expressed interest in performing with us. I told you about them two years ago but never heard back from you.

. . . And No, this group don't call themselves " Mixeddollies".

I have an imaginary friend too. His name is Bob and he's a shape-shifting alien. He likes the samba school.

oars, Paul.

Paul said...

Touch'e, Claire.
I saw a couple of oars the other day. I was in the Valley at the time.

Paul said...

Not that there's anything wrong with that.
