Irma and kids were on the plain at last, and I was chewing my nails, as the previous times that she had been to visit her brother in Denmark, she was always met at the airport, and this time, with two girls in tow, she had to find her way to Protea House in Hammersmith. They had to sleep over, as their train to Scotland was only the next morning. But that would give them some time to spend in London, if they found their guest house, something I was not too sure of, knowing Irma's direction finding abilities. These were none!
But I got a text message in good time, telling me that with a little bit of luck, and a lot of the eldest girl, Kristani's mouth, they managed to get to their overnight stop with only a wee bit of trouble.
I was informed that they would first visit Camden Town, as Kristani was adamant to see the Goths walking around there with her own eyes!
According to Irma the girl had a terrible shock on laying her eyes on her first Goth couple! Apparently she had put on a black t-shirt that morning, pronouncing to the world in bold letters that she was a real Goth, and she told her mum that she would show the lot what a real Goth looked like, by then circling her eyes with a black kohl pencil, and smeared her lips with black lipstick that she pulled out from somewhere.
Getting to Camden Town was another mission, but again Kristani, who is one that can open her mouth and ask, got them there, and they were walking around the amazing shopping kind of mall, when there, right in front of this three greenies from Africa, was a couple that took all their breaths away, but Kristani was absolutely thrown.
The boy was dressed completely in black, but it was the girl that had the volatile Kristani standing like a statue, her mouth for once not working overtime. This Goth girl was dressed in a kind of vintage dress, and she had on a pair of black fish net stockings, and on her feet was a pair of red shoes with soles about a foot thick, making her tower above everybody like a tall black widow spider! Of course her face was made up all in black, and she had rings hanging down from just everywhere on her face.
Kristani was in absolute ecstasy, and grabbed her mother's camera to take a photograph of this wondrous sight, but the girl got very upset, and with her face pulled into an ugly snarl, she told Kristani that if she dared take a photo, she would ruin the camera by bashing it on the ground!
As Irma had a very expensive camera, her doing a lot of photography for the interior decorators she worked for, she grabbed her camera, and the kids, and rushed to the nearest coffee shop to calm down.
