The Secret After Party


Yesterday was my first day working as shopgirl in Shop At Maison Bertaux - only it didn't feel like working cause Michelle from Maison Bertaux kept running down to check I was okay and bringing me some gorgeous asparagus quiche for lunch and tea and coffee through the day. My new friend Lauren dropped in to see me [she was modelling for Katharine Hamnett through the week and that is how I met her] and DJ Mollywood called in as well. Loads of customers came in just to check out the new boutique and I was marvelling with everyone about the concrete door on the fitting room. It is an Eley Kishimoto frill print on a sheet of concrete screwed to the door - and while girls were trying stuff on in the fitting room, their blokes and I were on the outside of the door saying "How does that work? The concrete is only about 8mm thick and those screws are near the edge. Why doesn't it crumble??"

As promised, here is the video from the afterparty, heavily edited I have to say ;) - but starring in order of appearance:
Pippa - Business woman, playboy model and super DJ [who can't see]
Crowd - Fiona from Eley Kishimoto is the one with the headband
Nervous Stephen and Paul B. Davis - Nervous Stephen played the marching band music!
Abbie and Lee - girls from Lektrolab
Lucy - Her wig has a name and cost £14.99. She also told Mark Eley he smells of lettuce. You won't meet a funnier girl.
Paul Frecker - He deals antique photos and looks like the people in the antique pictures.
Mo and Jo - I just like that their names rhyme. Mo is a great Italo DJ and Jo Apps sang for Venetian Snare amongst others.
Max, Paul Long and Tania - Max is a business man and Playboy! Paul Long is the man responsible for the refit of the new boutique and Tania is part of the family running Maison Bertaux.
Paul B. D. - spinning
Paul L. - spinning [a yarn]
Chris O.C. - telling it like it is [and check the tattoos]
Alex - Gorgeous!
Pippa - keeping cool - but you should have seen her later dancing to "I've got a loverly bunch of coconuts"
Nervous Stephen and Me - discussing DJ or Print Gocco machines
Max and Mo
Katrina - our Saturday girl who is going back to Australia soon
Max - his turn on the decks
Paul Gorman and his lady - Paul wrote "The Look" and his lady is also from Australia. You should have seen these two going for it when Pippa played Ying Yang Twins!!
Paul B.D. - it was a long night...
