I Felt Your Presents . . .

If there's one tradition I'm going to jump on at this year, it's "the bandwagon". (Picture came from here.)

The Not NYE Ball

Torture Garden continue their annual tradition with the

Not New Year's Eve Ball 2015

 

Wednesday 30th December at the Ministry of Sound from 10pm.

Winter Wonderland

The English Mansion Year-End Extravaganza

At the chilly end of the year Mistress Sidonia makes her annual arse-warming . . . I mean heart-warming gesture:

 

Double updates to end the old year, and begin the new.

Glitter & Shiny Ball

Club R.U.B. leap into the festive season.

Saturday 12th December

2016 Burns Night

The Firm have announced their 2016 Burn's Night date:

Saturday 31^st January

TG XBoat

Here's the graphic for their Dec 5th Boat Party, righted:

 

 

TG XMaS Ball & Boat Weekend

Friday 4^th. December: XMas Ball @ Electrowerkz.

 

 

Rapidly followed by The XMas Boat.

 

 

Saturday 5^th. December

 

But wait . . .

 

Not to be out-done, TG have re-named their event . . . and produced a second artwork for it:

 

 

For now it's the "Winter Wonderland Ball". 

 

Yes, TG seem to have adopted R.U.B.'s policy of re-naming events (and creating a new graphic) between announcing an event and it happening. They even have two identical web pages for it. Or two addresses which link to the same page. The 'Xmas Ball' is now the 'Winter Wonderland Ball'.

Perhaps they should have done it the other way round; The English Mansion had already used Winter Wonderland for their festive bonus season by the 13^th.:

Never Knowingly Proof-Read . . .

Shiny Glitter Ball

Club R.U.B. rarely show a coherent advertising policy on the web, with changing event names and dual pages and posters being the norm, but this one's a new one to me:

That date gives thirteen options - assuming that the '1' is correct. (And given their track record so far, I'm not overly confident about that.)

Except it'll be a Saturday, of course. (The 12th!)

More pressingly Torture Garden are holding two balls in October . . . 

 

. . . no, not those!

 

The second Hallowe'en Ball (31th, it says on their website) is already sold out.

 

 

The first (24th) . . . you might be lucky with.

They are still selling tickets for Belle Epoch (also 24th, afternoon) - but there aren't any left?

 

Club R.O.B.?

One notes the flyer for Club R.U.B.'s Victorianna Gothica:

Does Ishmael know that The Firm's pet spider is moonlighting on R.U.B. flyers? Let's wait and see if she's on the 18th Annual Rubber Awards one in November.

(I assume that the scarlet woman is Victori-Anna of the title?)

We Now Return To R.U.B.

All genned up from the Mistress Workshop? Plenty left for September!

The September Medical Appointment event is currently re-named Psycho Ward.

(Keen followers of R.U.B. may have noticed that it was also briefly Emergency Room.)

Remember, Remember . . .

. . . The 4th of September(?)

Torture Garden are holding their September Ball at The Electrowerkz on Friday 4th September.

Just thought a reminder might be in order, since RUB have a tall posting below.

It Must Be R.U.B.

Pausing only for an afternoon's Mistress Workshop in Hackney on August 29, Club R.U.B. will hit the ground running in September with a slew of stuff.

In order to give others a look-in on my homepage I have collated the R.U.B. stuff here.

Nurse Valentine from Skullgirls

This picture used because the linked page has a very nursey bias. For those who prefer Christmas, look at the 2013 Page.

It's out of date now, of course, but there are still some pretty pictures.

September Ball

Torture Garden

. . . are holding their September Ball this September.

It's at The Electrowerkz, on Friday the fourth. Of September.

Choose Your Poison

Saturday September 12^th

For those with a schoolie disposition New Grange Manor are holding their next school day.

And for medical night-birds there is the Club Rub Medical Appointment.

Poison: Do not exceed the recommend dose

Ah, Blogger it!

One usually recalls Mistress Sidonia (von Bork, of The English Mansion) in 'typical' Domme mode, probably because that's how we most often see her. (When not blindfolded.)

Here's a day when She felt like a change of pace, and went instead for a stockinged and suspendered saucy schoolgirl look:

 

I can't say I disapprove, not that I was looking too closely . . .

I was happily reminded of the day when this photo appeared in a Tweet last month.

Are we allowed to link to Twitter here? Ah, Blogger it!

NotC 2015

The Firm have released the date of this year's event.

Saturday November 15.

What do you call a Festival of Kink?

Kinkfest!

July 25 - 26^th

^{The Midlands are hosting another weekend for the pervley curious - or the curiously pervy.}

Term of Endearment

Club R.U.B. go old school . . . with Old School

(Not to be confused with the L.C.P.S. gang!)

AKA Schools Out for Summer?

AKA School Days??

Saturday 18th. (July, obviously.)

The R.U.B. Events Steering Committee have decided
on the theme, but clearly can't decide on a name.

I note that their webpage still says “Whether your a
school boy or girl” - ah, the joys of cut'n'paste!

And also "capon back to front".

A chicken on your head? Backwards???

. . . and “pilmsoles”. Surely there's something afoot?

Lost at Sea?

Found on The Boat after clearing the decks:

• A flannel
• A pair of sunglasses
• A lightweight jacket
• A make-up bag with afro comb

• And another jacket

Contact Ishmael to claim them.

Time'n'Tide (Two)

The Boat 22 is sold out, and the returns list is closed.

Ishmael has kindly written a handy guide to getting there.

Here's where the pier is.

A Twist Next Time

Ok, so here's the proper flyer for Club R.U.B.'s Gender Bender.

Now called Gender Benders, but still on Saturday 20th. June.

I note that their webpage says “Whether your a school boy or girl” - is that a school-boy error?

 (And “laples on the jacket” - have spelling-checkres suddenly become expensive?)
 

Subverting the Medium

Club SubVersion are back . . . in black.

Friday June 12th at Crystals, in Whitehorse Lane.

Rubber Cult Returns

Shine: Saturday 30^th May

 

   

Sorry about the short notice: I was only told today. 

Advance notice not required! Shine on, you crazy diamonds . . .

 

A Circus Darkly

Belle Epoch - the Dark Circus

Torture Garden reprise their Belle Epoch event, itself a reprise of Dark Circus by The Firm?

Saturday 30th May

Get Bent

Club R.U.B.: Gender Bender

Saturday 20^th June

Boys will be girls and girls will be boys
 - it's the rules of the Kinks!

Of course, rules are made to be broken: some, just bent.

The Boat 22

The Firm have announced the date for the 2015 Boat party:

July 4th

Last Train to Wonderland

The title may be a mixed metaphor, but it's a mixed up world, oh shook up world, except for Alice.

 

Club R.U.B. : 18^th Birthday

Saturday 18th April

 

Club R.U.B. reprise their Alice in Wonderland theme for their eighteenth birthday bash.

 

Whaddaya mean, only 'four candles'?

Kim (& co.) welcome you to their Alice-in-Wonderland themed Eighteenth Birthday Bash.

I wasn't struck with the playing-card suggestion for an Alice outfit, so here's a couple of mine:

Which will you choose - the Waders-and-Corset or the Shorts/Stockings/Flasher-Mac ensemblé?

Both have a pleasingly strappy aspect -

Strappy Birthday, R.U.B.!

 

Top Model Wanted

Peter Birch has made the following request:

 

" I have an opportunity to work with a very beautiful model from Cardiff on Sunday April 12th, and I'm hoping to get some shots for flyers, book covers and general promotion. Would anybody like to take the domme role? "

You need to be female, able to provide somewhere to shoot and gloriously oblivious to having photographs of you doing kinky things to other women floating around cyberspace.

Any takers please contact me and I'll pass your message on.

P. S. The previous entry is not to be taken too seriously - there are clues . . .

L.C.P.S.

In an even-more-insane-than-usual radical departure, Ishmael has decided that the pupils will be caning the teachers at Detention,  this year's April School's Day.

New FAQ

As if you could actually find the old one*, Ishmael has done a new FAQ especially for L.C.P.S. Queries.

 

 *Perhaps he should consider awarding two tickets to the first person to find it?

 

It's Hard to Believe . . .

. . . she's eighteen already.

Club R.U.B.'s 18^th birthday will be held on April 18! (See what they did there?)

 

Details have yet to be announced - they're probably sleeping off last night's Mental Oriental - but the theme is broadly Alice in Wonderland.

 

In absence of any concrete information here are two kinky Alice-based looks you might like to replicate.

 

March Mistress Workshop

Although there are opportunities for both pupils and teachers at Detention in April, what can fledgling Dominatrices do to expand their répertoire in the meantime?

Aha! Kim of Club R.U.B. to the rescue - with another of her Mistress Workshops: Saturday March 28th.
