Of all the fairytales, the truth is often the most unbelieveable ...
Well, once upon time in a place far far away ... also known as the ass end of the world ... there lived an ordinary girl called Mary. There was nothing particualrly special about Mary ... but there was something about this Mary that would intrigue a very handsome stranger.
Juan Antonia Samaranch the then president of the International Olympic Committee uttered the fateful words on some day in 1993 ... "and the winner is Sydney Australia" and the stage was set for ordinary Mary to become the future Queen of Denmark ...
Seven years later ... on a VERY exciting night when all of Australia was hudled around their television waiting for their "son" Ian Thorp aka Thorpido was racing in his beloved 400m event, Mary decided to head over to watch the event at a very ordinary bar ... a bar that I've frequented on >1 ocassion. It was there that Mary caught the attention of a very handsome and very Royal man ... who was there pretending to be low key ... playing it very cool, and pretending to "blend in" as he sipped Australian BEER ... he was also known as the Prince of Denmark ... this last bit of information was unbeknown to Mary, and she began to flirt shamelessly and show much interest in our very handsome stranger ... but being an Aussie woman, she thought that's as far as it was going to go... she'd tease him one night, and not call him again!
Howver, towards the end of night, when the celebrations had ded down and the drunks bounced out of the bar, he took her back to her house, and he professed his undying love for Mary and told her how he could not manage another day without her. How he had fallen in love at first site, and how it would not be worth living if he weren't living for her. (i'm not sure if that really happened, but it did in this story) And the rest as they say is history.
Tonight, Denmark is getting a Queen, and Australia is adopting a King.
And ordinary woman from the ass end of the world has in reality met her prince who swept her off her feet, and she in turn completed his life ...
aaahhh such a romantic story. Almost makes you believe in love ;-)
