Well, Day One of Erotica at Olympia (London) has been and gone, and this Dalmatian pup has finally returned home and managed to put paws to keyboard to write this blog post.
The day didn’t start off particularly brilliant, when some TFL problems on the Picadilly line meant the train that my owner and I intended to catch stopped short at Acton Town. Quick change to the District Line and some technological help (Google Maps) and a new plan was devised… although this meant that Spot arrived at Erotica with only 5 minutes to spare before it opened to the public. *paws over eyes*
The first item of the day was to say hello to people, including the people running the Bound 4 Bondage stall, Latex 101 and E-Stim Systems… we then went off for a wander to see what was where around the show. It was only afterwards that I realised I should have been on my lead at this point, but with both of us harassed due to the Tube problems, I don’t think we thought about it!
The wander around resulted in us ending up back at the stand (K6, in case you’re wondering!) and after being demonstrated their new magnetic locking system, I decided it was time to get in the cage… and hereafter the story of this blog becomes a bit fuzzy!
It was interesting when someone came up to me an commented that it was “nice to finally meet Spot in person as I’ve been reading your blog for ages” – it’s nice to know people are reading this and also want to meet me! *waves paw at the person concerned* (Leave a comment on the post if you want!)
The interesting thing is that many people end up a little surprised when I’m in the cage… but for varying different reasons. The security guards, and some of the other stall holders find it a little strange that I enjoy being in the cage… The public find it strange for the same reason, but also get a bit of a fright when I move slightly; as many think that I’m a dummy or anamatronic. The thing is, I absolutely love being confined in a 3ft x 2ft 6 x 2ft dog cage!
I spent a few hours in the cage, but my owner came to fetch me just after 2pm so that I could go and get some food and prepare for the next bit of the afternoon. After a rather lovely sausage sandwich, I headed down to the disabled loo and changed out of the Dalmatian Lycra Zentai and changed in to my Latex 101 custom made Dalmatian Latex suit as I was helping with a part of a talk on what to wear to a Fetish Club.
My owner explains:
The talk began with a bit about why this topic comes up – Fetish Club dress codes etc. and then a lady (I can’t remember the name) took the audience through what females could wear at the clubs. Then it was the turn of Richard from Latex 101 and in walked Spot, Joel, Seany and someone else (sorry!) demonstrating the other ranges you can wear… from just a latex top, to shorts + t-shirt to two different varieties of full body clothes. After their stint, the original compère took over and explained how you can add accessories to normal clothing using items made of Latex to meet the dress-codes of clubs
After the presentation, we decided to take a couple of better pictures of Latex Spot, which are included at the end of this blog post.
On the return journey after getting changed back to the Zentai, my owner and I bumped into the writer of “The Zentai Invasion” article, that was done last year for a (now defunct) magazine – ForePlay.
I ended up back in the cage at this point (*wags*) and spent a bit longer in there until it was time to get out and have another break for the loo and to stretch legs. At this point, my owner had seen something that he thought I might like (a heavy metal collar) but as it’s probably chrome-plated, it might be best if we don’t look at it too strongly due to my allergic reactions. I was also given back my E-Stim remote box that I’d accidentally broken, so this could be a bad thing (or maybe not ;))
Again, I ended up back in the cage, and with a couple more toilet breaks, the day came to a close. However, the last thing I remember of the show was being given back rubs and, I think, falling asleep at the same time.
So that’s what Day One brings… Day Two of Erotica begins in just over 10 hrs time, and I know that for me it will bring more of the same, but I hope to also get some pictures as well.
Don’t forget to come and say hello 🙂 and if you saw me at the show feel free to comment on this post!
