I am sad to announce that Le Cage in Manchester has suffered an arson attack on Sunday 3rd February.

This is a very taboo subject which results in many men feeling very confused and isolated. It's certainly not what you would discuss with your hetro-mates down the pub on a Saturday night. But because of the nature of what I do for a living I am very aware that in reality it's a lot more common than most straight men care to admit.

Fed up with opening your newspaper on February 14th to see page after page of vomit-inducing declarations of vanilla love? Wish to see a few more thorns amongst the roses? Chains amongst the cherubs?

A munch for those of us in Kent and the surrounding area. We are meeting Saturday 16th March from 2pm onwards in a local pub in Ashford town centre, 5-10 minutes walk from Ashford Internation station. We hope for a friendly, relaxed but fun munch where we can get to meet in real life (we use irc.bondage.com a lot!) and renew/make new friends. Food is available. Please visit the website (www.kinkykent.co.uk) for more details, especially nearer the time!

Last night was the second event organised by TnT promotions - a couple who decided to organise a fetish night in Dunstable last year after their favourite local event (Absolution) closed down for lack of a venue. They listened to their customers after the first event and made a lot of improvements, large and small, to the second event, and I had an excellent time!

First event to be held on 8th Feb and if well supported to become monthly on 2nd Friday in each month, 9pm - 3am, South Wales. Large private venue which includes changing rooms and secure cloakroom. 5 Fully equipped playrooms, darkroom and dancefloor with soft drinks bar. BYO. Also chill-out lounge with buffet. Resident Mistress Amber in attendance each month. Erotic gallery. Open now new cellar dungeon with 2 more equipped rooms and dark room.

When fed up with television repeats and turkey left overs at Christmas, we went for a look around on the Internet. We were really impressed when we stumbled on the BDSM swap shop through a link on this site.

I just had to write to let anyone who might be as nervous as I was about attending my first fetish fair and party know how my first visit to the Bristol Fetish Emporium went.

Hello to the U.K. fetish community. We are trying to grow in Italy a community like this one. Our idea is to create galleries and articles by Mistresses that can express their superiority not only with a whip but also with a pencil, or a photo camera or another form of expression...

We are starting our New Year off with a weekend of fun to celebrate our 1 Year Anniversary of the Inception of the London Communities Room/Munch/Community. Starting with our first munch of the year which will be held on Friday, January 18th at the Princess Louise Pub at 208 High Holborn, London. It will start at 6pm and continue on till around 10:30ish. There will be a door prize giving out to one of our guests just for showing up.
