The usual Friday Lunchtime Pub Goers were all on holiday today, so I wandered up into Leeds city centre. I had a vague recollection that the staff of the shop where mofette and ladyserpentine work were dressing up today. Indeed they were: as characters from 'Allo 'Allo. mofette's blond dreads worked astonishingly well as Helga, and ladyserpentine had a rather scary Hitler-look about her as Herr Flick. The other two staff members looked rather fetching in fishnet tights. They were all shouting in German at each other and it was all a bit overwhelming.

I ran off and hid and bought a Grauniad to read and Bagel to eat, when I came across a review of a website so amazing I left there and then and returned to the office to look at it:

I think I'm in love... :-)

Er, you might want to issue a warning with that URL, for those that have speakers. I'd not realised I could jump so high from a sitting position.

Oooh, good point. I didn't have my headphones on when I first went to it so it didn't catch me out.

Cor, you've described half of the conference calls here.

Nobody dresses in fishnets though.

Fortunately.

Metal Goddess:

Obviously you're joking, Vincent. At least two of these are men in bad wigs.

And may I point out that none of these women are large and none have stripy tights...!

Now Clare, that sounds like jealousy to me. They're just well built :-P

But the outfits... that's given me a few ideas :-)

For you, I hope! One skirt's enough for me. :-)

You say that now...before you know it you'll have 42 skirts and will need an additional wardrobe :-)

I suggest you stop asking then - slippery slope :-P

It is a slippery slope. Just when I'm thinking "one skirt is enough" I go and see Troy and start looking at Brad Pitt's skirts for ideas. I'm DOOMED, aren't I? :-) You'll have to tell me your ideas next time you see me - whoever they're for... (*giggle*)

This is true, but until someone builds:

it'll have to do. Then again, maybe that's something *I* should build. I mean, who better? :-)

Belly dancing to Yngwie Malmsteen, speed metal god? You *have* to be joking!

Yeh, I agree. He's far too widdly and up his own arse. Now something more traditional like Iron Maiden works far better!

Fleur has just planned a routine to some vaguely metally stuff, I can't remember what, though. I like the techno trance belly dance troupe.

Really? Will this get a public performance somewhere?

I like the techno trance belly dance troupe.

Ooh, do they have a web site?

But no videos :-(
