Goldilocks: The Great Tyrant?

[sebastienne]

Cycling home through a thunderstorm is not an experience I'd ever particularly like to repeat. The places that water can find to pool inside one's clothing is most instructive, if uncomfortable.

Little things that make me happy: this easy-read government document about the Equality Bill illustrating the concept of "you are a man or a woman" with exactly the same graphic as "you are transsexual".

Big things that make me happy: my Evil-Villainess corset, which just arrived.

(Apologies for rubbish photo-quality; it's surprisingly hard to hold a riding crop and a MacBook!)

Now, I'm sure that many of you want to come and see my show - well, you can! There will be a preview in Cambridge on 22 August, and then the show itself is in Edinburgh from 24-31 August. Buy tickets here!.

Anyone in need of cheap and OULES-filled transport to Edinburgh, there's a coach going up from Cambridge on 23 August with space for people and props - let me know you're interested and I'll pass on details.

The effect is spectacular, certainly, but isn't that corset incredibly uncomfortable?

i think you may be missing the point somewhat, hun...

Actually, it's significantly more comfortable that any other corset I've ever worn.. for the first time, I've been able to afford a custom-made overbust (well, a second-hand corset custom-made to someone else, but with measurements similar enough to mine that the effect is the same), which means that I don't have to wear a bra. The liberation from the tyranny of strap and wire is such that the inability to bend at the waist is minor by comparison.
