Caricatures of my friends

On the weekend I passed a gift shop that had some rather fabulous cards. I popped in and was compelled to buy three of them, because they so perfectly captured a side of three of my friends.

The first one is of my boyfriend Paul: to understand why this card is so funny, you would need to know that one weekend a while ago when I was elsewhere, Paul spent the weekend with some of our lesbian friends. Sounds innocent enough, and I thought nothing of it. However, a few weeks later, one of the girls there during the weekend said to me "Leithy, I have to show you something". And she proceeded to show me a photo on her phone of Paul... dressed as Audrey Hepburn, dress, hair, stance and all. I was shocked! So THIS is what Paul gets up to on the weekends!! tee hee... so when I saw this card, with the man/woman standing almost exactly like Paul stood in his photo... I had to buy it!


Then I saw this one... and knew instantly it was of Phil. For those that know him, well, you're probably giggling hysterically at how precisely it captures his eyes, turn of his head, and petulant expression when he is bored!


And finally, the funniest and most accurate of all the pictures, is this one of our Sue. You might be mistaken for thinking I had these deliberately made up and captioned, but no, these were bought as is from the shop. How perfect does it capture her cheeky side, the naughty pursing of the lips, but most of all, her hand! Sue is known for 'her hand', as it seems to be powered by some eternal battery that never stops pumping as she dances and chats. And there it is in the picture...
