General Communiqué - Sept - 2008

On Saturday 8^th November Chats Palace 42-44 Brooksbys Walk, Hackney E9 will echo to the swish and crack of countless canes teaching severe lessons to those who really deserve them. The evening will include School Classes. Boxing Ring. Annual Caning Competition with celebrity judges. Teaching Workshops. And something delicious and Indonesian to keep everyone's strength up.   (Indonesia is where cane comes from).

Tickets £20 from Zeitgeist, Holloway Road; if you can't get to any of them, you can send a cheque payable to Ishmael Skyes to 13 Riddlesdale Avenue, Tunbridge Wells, Kent, TN4 9AB; the time to buy is now, not (if you can avoid so doing) on the night, because then we will charge you more money, and there are only 230 tickets for sale.  Night of the Cane will begin at 7.00pm and close at 1am.  Dresscode: Leather, rubber, PVC, academic, uniform, TV, evening dress.  We could do with some maids for NOTC, so if you enjoy being a maid, contact The Firm.

Opinion has been raised that all the stuff about new swingeing anti-porn legislation restricting the freedoms of many people is just scare-mongering and that here is no longer any need for The Scene to stick together (there's no such thing as society after all), so all those that want to discriminate against people that switch, or people that are too old (making both synonymous with ‘Mudblood'), might as well get on with it.  If the government aren't really going to ruin the SM community, let's please not do it ourselves instead!

Phoenix School is at the Purple Turtle in Camden  on Saturdays; 30^th August, 27^th September, 25^th October, 22^ndth December starting at 12 md. November, 20
