Japanese wedding

Hiromi and I were invited to a relatives' wedding this weekend and in true Japanese form it had every base covered.There was a token foreigner priest spouting Christian rhetoric in terrible Japanese...

A chorus choir


And everyone was dressed in the prerequisite black and whites...including the mascot.


A strange custom was displayed where the bride and groom had to show everyone they did indeed give each other a ring..


Then we all walked across to the reception hall, and the limo brought the happy couple after.Maybe 20 metres distance all up


Once the photos started the panda got well into it


He was a pillar of decorum out the front


And continued to grease palms as we all moved indoors ...except he took his gloves off, mascot cardinal sin do not break the illusion...perhaps this was a sign of things to come


mmmm delicious nectar of the gods, but where the hell did he manage to pick up those brown stains?


Nothing like a good smoke after a drink


Jeez he must be buggered.All that excitement desrves a little rest.........


Lucky for him they decided to roll out the cross dressing nurse


Yeah go panda!
