You know, its funny how you become more confident in your alter ego the more you get out and try different things - certainly that’s the case for me anyway! If memory serves me correctly, I’ve been going out to events as Ashlee for about three years now, gradually building up my confidence through going to London on public transport or shopping while at Eastbourne or Bournemouth.
Well, as I said at the beginning of this write-up, my confidence had grown after our fab trip to Canaria and another great weekend at Eastbourne in October, after which I felt a little, well, at a loose end, with only the thought of Bournemouth or Eastbourne again in March (which by the way, I’ll see you all there hopefully). Then I remembered my friend Georgie had mentioned last year about a “specialist” club-night that was held occasionally in London and Brighton called Torture Garden. So I did a search on the web and found that this organisation was running an event in early December at an old theatre near the Elephant & Castle in London. Basically, it’s a Fetishist club with bondage, S&M, and adult-play areas for the more adventurous - let’s say it’s an eye opener if you’re an innocent first-timer like me, and if you’re easily offended, then it’s probably not your cup of tea.
