One of the highlights of the season is the Rotherham weekend - the
conference of the Beaumont Society. It's held in a 'posh' hotel which has superb
facilities, plenty of space, a grand piano (Pamela indulges) and last, but by no means
least, exceptionally good food. Last year ('96) Pamela used this venue to give la
Duchesse her debut outing - this year she was going to go one better. And she did, as
you can see to the right - for full details see 'She Wore
A Yellow Dress'Of course there was still the problem of what to wear
for all the other nights - it's a real devil of a dilemma, but probably central to our
'hobby'.
| This time outfits
included a whispy affair in grey/black (from my normal charity shop suppliers - the top is
actually M&S)... |
... and a delightfully
slinky 'Chinese catsuit' in black - this is a real treasure, that I picked up very
recently and to put it mildly 'fits like a glove'. |

Other (unillustrated) highlights of the weekend include Pamela going for
her first swim in a bikini (in this case the two-piece was in a lovely turquoise
Lycra); a couple of hours shopping in Leeds city centre and subsequently in the Meadowhall
centre (in a Liz Claiborne black and grey tweed suit - very elegant) and wearing an outfit
completely in leopard print (including all underwear and hosiery).
But one of the real joys of these weekends is meeting old and making new friends
- this was no exception.
