One of my favourite photographs in the 'Book of Tiki' is the one at the bottom of page 19, where a group of lei-wearing fun-lovers are about to tuck into an entire pig.

The people who really take my eye are:

a)The poor chap to the left of the hostess, who's looking somewhat vague as he's probably going to have to pay for the whole shebang. (And notice he's munching on a banana....he's the only one who realises all the fruit will go to waste)

b) The lady right at the bottom of the photo. With her casually tossed lei, (possibly) flaming cocktail, and pack of (stroke of genius here...) Chesterfields, she's the gal the guys have got to talk to.

c) The guy in the background with the amazing semi-bleached mohican & glasses that puts him firmly into the nu-metal/geek rock cross-over catagory.

d) The sad-looking, put-upon waiter who looks on the whole party with a look of weariness & pity. I just hope that guy got to sample a few cocktails after the shirt-wearers had all gone home.
