Fancy Dress in Misfits Gallery

Hello and welcome to my new section, Misfits Gallery. I was actually looking for some photographs of me when I was younger. I mean really young and I discovered that my photos tended to follow a common theme. Fancy Dress. I loved to dress up as a kid and I still do to this day, so over the next few Posts I am going to go through an array of photos (mostly amusing) of some fun times when I have been able to don a mask and play a completely different character. One that normally would be kept safely hidden in the dark recesses of my scary mind. (That's why I love writing so much, you can daydream all you like and write down your thoughts without actually hurting anyone. Some people may hate it, others may love it. For those who don't then stop reading!!! Simple as that.)

Anyway where was I. Oh Yes. Once upon a time their lived a fairy princess who loved to dress up in mummy's clothes...
Awww don't I look cute? I think that was actually my Grandma's hat!

....Then one day she grew up....And nothing much changed!!
This was me as a Geisha Girl at a Murder on the Siberian Express evening. I love my murder mystery nights and once a year the same crowd got together and hosted a fantastic evening. Kev here was a strict chinese father (I think) and James played an upper class English Gentleman Explorer fresh back from his adventures in Africa. He played the part perfectly shouting "Whatto. Chocks away old bean." and my personal favourite. "Man The Trenches!" in mid dinner just for the hell of it. It was hilarious.

Here's another murder mystery night held at my house. It was a 1960's Bohemian London dinner party complete with Angel Delight!
Apparantly there were a lot of gangsters in London in the Sixties! Rich on the right was a loud drunken actor...No news there. And Chris on the far left was a hippy rock star.

Here's Nina playing an Alcoholic aristocrat that liked to hang out with the common folk! Dave played a great Gangster.


I was this diva artist and yes The Mad Meggy Moo Moo is wearing a Tiara... because she is The Duchess!
