More Octopus Romance... and More Nail Art

Here in the open ocean, things seem a bit more decorous, but I still think there's a menacing undertone to the sentiment, "you ARE going to say you love me too."  Nonetheless,  I appreciate that the editor of this video has kept us on our toes with a Beatles' tune that is NOT Octopus's Garden.

Aha!  This explains those Westminster photos.
