Hi all,

A Colourful Gal and I headed into the Auckland city on Labour Day and I decided to snap a few photos of the sights we encountered with my camera-phone.

Kind regards

Armageddon Expo Cocktails

Hi all,

I’ve just now sobered up from a wonderful night out at the London Bar in Auckland where a cocktail party was held to celebrate the launch this weekend’s Armageddon Expo.

You’re probably asking yourself, what does this have to do with fashion, seeing as how Armageddon Expo is a sci-fi event? Well, not much really! However, actors and musicians, and there were a good number in attendance tonight, tend to be some of the most fashionable people around. Also, who doesn’t enjoy a good party?

Anyway, as you can see from my slideshow above, I mixed and mingled, schmoozed and boozed, with the best of them! And, not to be outdone by anyone, I pretty much managed to get a photo of myself taken with just about every celebrity that was in attendance! ;)

The event was great fun! The band was very good, the celebrities gracious and friendly, and the crowd was really lively and really seemed to fully enjoy themselves.

The Armageddon Expo-Auckland will be held at the ASB Showgrounds, in Greenlane, from October 24-26th. That’s this weekend!

Kind regards
