Another birthday in our gang, another girlie get-together. This time it was for Melissa Hardwick who thought we were going into Harrods in London to look at the pet shop for Elise Rasumussen Ace (who gets her cats and dogs from there. Apparently, the pets bought from Harrods are allowed into the store at anytime throughout their lives, but I don't know how much they are going to buy there -- unless Harrods issues doggy credit cards.)
But Elise and Karen Firbank led Melissa into the salon instead where Melissa was treated to a new hairdo and a makeover, while sipping Harrods champagne with a plate of strawberries always at hand.
We made sure we got a BEFORE picture of Melissa. Just look at her flyaway hair! It's all over the place :) thank goodness help was at hand. Here's the famous stylist Christophe Christopholous de los Santos (or whatever his name was) working his magic on Melissa:
Then, in the middle of all this beautifying, comes an interloper, just looking for a bottle of Harrods champagne to quaff to celebrate her own birthday the day before. Yes, it's my daughter Katie:
Whew, that was a hard afternoon's work. We rewarded ourselves with dinner at the Oxo Tower overlooking the Thames. 
Happy Birthday Melissa!! Hope you enjoyed your day.

How does one identify a pet bought at Harrods? Are they issued with a passport, or do you just keep the invoice?
Even then, I don't see how the rule can be practically enforced.
I suppose it's just "Did you buy that dog here, madam?". After all, someone who shops at Harrods would never fib, would they?
Lovely champagne, what what!
We simply must do that again!
