Another fun filled night was held at Absolution on Friday Night. This new venue for the Absolution crew is now starting to become more established, with a more organised and dedicated following.

Well - having only just 'got into' the fetish scene along with my wife , I need to know if there are any clubs and or events near Reading or Bracknell in Berkshire. As a newbie , what should I be expected to wear? and what is not allowed?

I felt I would write and review a relatively new company Dungeon Master Conversions, run by Jules and based in Stockport. They have built for me a beautiful cellar dungeon containing some of the best furniture I have seen anywhere in the UK

100% free! A well established, non-commercial community of several thousand adults (only) sharing their special understanding of latex, rubber or PVC fetish. Includes vast message base, huge story library, live chatroom, personal profiles, and the largest links database of Rubberist resources on the planet, etc.

Learning from the navigational vortex that made life so difficult finding Balsall Common last time, we loaded the car brimful of leather, rubber and chain, cds, food and other miscellany and set off at lunchtime. As a result we were unpacked, showered and dressed in good time and waiting for a cab at the unearthly hour of 8.45. Rapture closes at 2am and we were determined to make the most of it!

We got there early - thanks to comments in the TG newsletter (one of the many very good things about TG is how honest they are about any flaws in a night) we were warned about the new cloak room problem. Getting there early solves that. Lucky - I don't think it's quite sorted yet. For some bizarre reason the new management sees fit to make you stand in one queue to drop your bags, and a different queue for coats. There are no signs to indicate this. Silly.

Well the first Klymax was a rather quiet (but pleasantly mellow) affair with about 30 people showing up, so I hoped the second one might pick up a bit.

Just a prompt for those who might be interested. Wasteland can be about the biggest & best fetish club in Europe. It runs twice a year, you can find links from the DeMask Site. The next time it is on is the 14th April. Easter Saturday in Amsterdam. It is a busy time so if you want to go and get a decent hotel at a decent price you need to book early.

Saturday 3rd February saw another Open Interactive Munch take place at the Retro Bar in Manchester.

Club Flesh is Torture Garden's "back to basics" fetish night, which they relaunched last weekend (Saturday 3rd February) at Cynthia's in London (a venue which previously housed their 'Cybersex' event). A new feature of the event is a fetish-theme restaurant before the club, with appropriately attired waitresses and entertainment while you eat.
