My Life on a Plate

Mad World

It's very rarely I feel surprised at anything I read or hear regarding the News. Often deeply saddened, which is probably why I generally avoid it. Ostrich syndrome I call it. But something I spotted yesterday left me rather gobsmacked.

Apparently, forty-one year old Sharon Tendler from London has just travelled to Eliat, in Israel where she was married to her sweetheart of fifteen years. Nothing unusual about that you might think, except her partner is a dolphin.

The bride wore a traditional white wedding outfit and the groom was naked as far as I can see. The groom however is called Cindy, so I can only conclude that's the reason they married at the aquatic theme park and not in church.

The bride is a rock concert producer in London. Methinks the company concerned may gain a little publicity from this bizarre event.

She is also a millionairess. I wonder if she'll ever really know whether the dolphin has only married her for her money?

If it wasn't so cold I'd be thinking it was April 1st
