September

Drier Than Advertised

After a break from the holidays the month starts with a deciedly spanky feel - First 2 Kings on the 10th and then The Firm's Yow! (see below) on the following Sunday.

If you need nursing afterwards, you're out of luck - they'll be hors de combat after 2 Kings . . .

Then it all kicks in for the second half, with Japanese rope bondage in Antwerp - where else?

A Summer Break?

August

It seems a bit quiet - partly because everyone's away and partly because there's a Bank Holiday weekend, which means that no-one can move. If you want a full fetish weekend, go to Denmark?

The Firm Make Some Noise?

A new Firm event has emerged: Yow!

Sunday 15th September, in Kent

You'll have to wait until next month, and it's not convenient if you're going to Torture Garden in Manchester the night before.

On the plus side it's an early finish for a fresh Monday. (With fond memories!)

Happy New Year (Less 1 Month!)

 January Made Me Shiver

Well, it was cold, wet, stormy and events were sparse.

February started with The Firm's Burn's Night going up against Zara du Rose's Gods and Monsters. Which would have been the more traditional start to the year, if it was in the right month.

Long may it continue anyway.

I see that this event echoes the tag-line I that used for The Firm's 2015 Boat.

I wonder if next year they'll use 'London Calling'?

Related song: 'Echo Beach' - the Toyah version.

(Nowt wrong with the original Martha and the Muffins version, mind.)

I didn't get round to posting in April, no fooling . . .
