Ukrainian Nights There's nothing like an ethnic wedding. It's an opportunity to experience another culture's traditions, clothing food, and drink. Ahhh, yes drink... Vodka, the devils spirit, damn, damn Vodka... the reason I ended up in Newtown at someone named Svetlana's house, dancing to a crackling radio and drinking something that may have lost me my wallet. 
Before heading for the wedding, I had a photo shoot for my new CD, "Ferrari Nights." I have named my car "Kit" in honour of the Hof. 
The wedding lasted for about an hour and a half and was completely in Ukrainian. There was something to do with crowns, and having their hands bound together, and doing a bit of a dance with the priest. We were very happy to get to the reception, where a group of Cossacks performed. 
I made Zorba pose for this picture so I could get a picture of this girls hair. Good lord, it reminds me of my dear, departed Lhasa Opso, Hai Kye, and the hours of combing out the clumps. 
My flatmate insists that as a hairy ethnic looking man, he would do very well in the Seventies. Looks a bit like the Bert Reynolds Cosmo centrefold. 
The lovely bride embroidered this traditional shirt for the groom, my mate A.K.. Please note that I am not short, Ukrainians are all giants. 
This guy shouted at me in Ukrainian after I took this picture. He had too much vodka too... 
The night finishes off with everyone dancing, even the little ones. It was like watching Breakin' II Electric Boogaloo with Eastern Europeans....
