Erotica day 1

Well an update to today, and in fairness it’s not just Erotica related…

… Went to Erotica 09 at Olympia (London) but not to look round. I’d been in contact with a company Bound 4 Bondage from last year, and I’d offered Spot to come and be the ‘exhibit’ in the cage.
I arrived at 1pm and went to get changed into Spot before introducing myself. I went over and asked for Mel, and I got the response “You must be Spot”, so I replied that I am. I was shown my cage and that’s where I was until a while later (I had no idea of time duration in the cage) when a couple of girls came over asking to borrow me. Well, I was lead off on all-4’s to another stand for a couple of pics and then brought back. I was taken pity on and was allowed the padded bottom to the cage (previously I’d been on chequer plate floor only). Again, some time later, and with lots of comments from people coming to the show which were about the nice puppy, I was lead out on all-4’s for a quick walk and then brought back. So nice to be able to relax and be in pup mode out in public, and all for a good cause of helping out the company.
5 pm came all too quick, and I had to leave to meet a friend at Bakers Street 🙁

BUT this was for a good reason too, we headed out for a quick bite to eat and then back to the tube station, where I became Spot again and we headed out to do all the stations on the Circle line before they change it in December. Every station we exited the train and took 2 pictures at a Roundel (?) (The tube name in the Underground logo), one of me stood up, the other of me on all-4’s. Again we had no nasty comments, a couple of slightly annoying ones like “Halloweens been and gone” but that’s all.
The best announcement came from the Station CCTV room at South Kensington where, right in the middle of a regular announcement ‘the next train arriving in – ‘ …. BING BONG ” Message for Cruella-de-Ville: One of your Dalmatian puppies is loose on Platform 1″
SO that goes to prove that the CCTV people DO monitor the cameras, you have been warned.
A few other people took pictures too along the way and overall we were either accepted or ignored.

So with the Circle Line stations photographed, it was decided that why not do the ones en-route back to the Car Park…. so we set off once again (me still as Spot), along the Metropolitan line and did the stations up to the point of West Harrow as the Met line is not running tomorrow but we can do the Piccadilly line for the last bit of the journey when it’s slightly earlier in the evening tomorrow (Saturday).

I’m back at Erotica on the Saturday from about 1.30pm until late afternoon/early evening and the unsure end time is since we may want to head out and do more tube stations pics …. not sure yet. So come down and say hi …. Definitely there from 1.30pm until about 6pm …. hope to see you there

OHHHH….. and maybe I’ll let you know our project that is going to take some time to do, but it is to get a picture of Spot AT ALL London Underground Stations ….. The ones on the Circle line loop are done, and the ones from Bakers Street are done …. They will be posted soon but with a neat tube map line type gallery, so when that is uploaded I’ll let you all know.
