Easter 2007 post-concert party - Sword fight 1

The sword fight! During Pirates of the Caribbean, Mark came on stage and challenged Emily for the podium. Some of the orchestra were wearing eye patches. Not sure how they read their music.

Mark forced Ems off the stage, to take the podium for himself (I'm glad it was her and not me).

Alison wasn't too keen on giving back the pirate hat, but it seems that Harriet was determined to have it.

Something possessed Mark to attack everyone that night (must have been that sword fight that fired him up). So one by one, we took him on. I had a go. Harriet has a go.

James has a go. Even Ele had a go. But alas, as always, Mark manages to prevail. So . . .
