M: Sissi, we met by way of mutual connection in Berlin but went to the same University for our Masters (though we never met) 🎓. How high on the destiny scale was our eventual meeting and subsequent engagement?💍 Also, how do you feel about marrying an Englishman?💂🏻‍♂️

S: like what I said about FATE in that temple in Sri Lanka, the monk there could be my witness 😉 I’m very happy about 💍 an Englishman but will never agree with you putting soy sauce (marmite) on 🍞 … Can you share an intimate quirk of our relationship that people might not know about us? 👩🏻‍❤️‍💋‍👨🏻

M: is this a good place to talk about your snoring?

S: well guess you wouldn’t mind me talking about the half chewed gum I find in every corner of your car then? 🤮

M: Truce? 🎺

S: … anyway, tell me how it feels to be getting married in China, and talk me through your initial ideas for our wedding 💒 ? I remember they were.. interesting 🤦🏻‍♀️

M: China is basecamp for me 🫡 The people love me 🥰 they call me Educated Horse ‘馬修’. I drew up some pretty intricate designs✏️ for the wedding, nothing major, just a coupla dragon dancers 🐲, some fire eaters 🔥, some fireworks 🎇 (the Chinese invented them thousands of years ago so they’re a must!!).

S: alright not sure about the fire eaters and the fireworks 🫠 but I reckon we could work our magic on some other stuff 🐯🥟👲 How do you feel about recreating the scene by bringing the Berlin vibe 🌌📀 to our after party in Guangzhou…? Could be quite surreal? 🫡 to 8mm (the bar that we first met) 🛢️🚬

M: I think that’s a great idea. Bring your shades 🕶️🔫
