My friend Sally, who lives in Cyprus these days, but is in Turkey on holiday at the moment, sent me some lovely pictures today. I was particularly smitten by the arcades shaded by rows of colourful parasols – what a wonderful and apt idea! Then I got to thinking what happens to umbrellas when a strong gust of wind gets under them…
On the Internet one thing leads quickly on to another and I soon found myself in the windy weddings section…
The arcade owner didn’t need to make a planning application to put up the umbrellas, as the Chief Planning Officer had previously told him it would be an open-and-shut case! And as for the Windy Weddings……I was blown away by the gales of laughter on considering the very concept! (he observed, breezily)
