We are a new couple getting into the fetish scene and would be greatful if anyone out there knows of any fetish hotels or cottages in the uk. We have searched the web looking for these places and so far we have had no luck. If anyone here have been to places that they would recomend, please send us the telephone number/e-mail of the place. Thanks for your help.

Violate has, in it's day, been a somewhat contentious club in Glasgow. One of the Scottish BDSM mailing lists lists it as an 'unsafe club', and indeed the first times I heard it mentioned, it was amid critisism. But after I attended their wonderful Edinburgh special event, I decided to check it out for myself. I attended Violate in Glasgow twice, in January and June 2003, and this review is based on those two visits.

Some of you still may not be aware that PayPal recently made changes to their 'Acceptable Use' policy to exclude the sale of products or services that they consider to be of an adult nature, and they're freezing accounts as they find them. PayPal has informed me that they are intent on getting away from anything adult related and will be changing their policies again in the near future to expand their definition of unacceptable transactions.

I'm a Domme relatively new to the lifestyle, although my Dominant side has always been there lurking beneath I guess! I'm now happily in a 24/7 relationship with my wonderful slave, but I just love this lifestyle so much, and get lots of requests to my profiles on other websites from submissive guys who are obviously in need of lots of attention.

There was expected to 200-300 nude picnickers attending at Hyde Park Picnic at the boathouses north of the serpentine on 1st June 2003 (Sunday). We attended from 10.30am until 11.30am and are sad to report that no one turned up to this event at all despite widespread media coverage on LBC radio news bulletins and soundbytes by Richard Collins from The British Nude Federation, the organiser.

This film is really all about spanking and features about 5 or 6 spankings. One is bare bottom skirt up pants down and is more or less a porno one. The film is about a woman Lee who is a self harmer. Her boss a posh solicitor sees this and one day tries to spank her instead she supposedly discovers a new dimension and then makes typos trying to get more and more spankings. She is depicted in the movie as spanking crazy and gagging for it. The film has only these 2 characters in it mainly. Eventually she leaves and the sapnkings stop. A classic ahead of its time in daring and quite tasteful. Interesting. Probably wouldnt be understood by non fetishists.

Sorry for the quiet spell on the site lately, with no new articles being posted - unfortunately I got knocked off my motorbike last month and only got out of hospital a couple of hours ago. I'll be trying to catch up on various things over the next few days, including the backlog of articles waiting to be posted here, and an incredible amount of emails that I received while I was away!
