Anyone just stumbling upon this post might be either shocked or mildly aroused by this title. Let me dampen your ardour a little.
Blogging friends may well remember I auditioned for our local am-dram production of The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and got the cameo/chorus role of Angel, streetwise city prostitute escaping from the clutches of her abusive pimp….!
You’ll be pleased to know that rehearsals are going well. I visit the Whorehouse regularly on a Tuesday and Thursday evening like some middle-aged female Mr Benn, transformed into a tart for the night before returning home as mild-mannered housewife. Husband rather disappointed that I don’t seem to be earning anything and remonstrates with me that I’m obviously not trying hard enough. However he has brightened up recently as my costume of mini-skirt, fishnets, blonde wig and thigh length boots have taken up residence in the spare room.
My other role in the society is publicity. We have a fantastic local photographer, Julian Wheeler, who designs our posters and programmes. His usual clientele are glamour models so our choice of show this year was right up his alley.
Julian and I have been mulling over ideas for the poster so I took along some of my costume and props to give him some inspiration. Funnily enough this was just the kind of spark he needed and, as we didn’t have the time or cash to get one of his models to pose, yours truly had to step up to the plate and do the honours.
So, fanfare please……I can now reveal the image which will be the basis for the poster and programme. I’m not telling anyone in the society that the woman is me: just seeing how long it will be before they suss it out.
It’s not often you get the chance in life to pose like a glamour girl. All I can say is, thank goodness for Photoshop.
That's so brilliant! Something to show the grandkids, definitely!
WOW, the poster looks very cool… I need to get photoshop!!
Fantastic. I so wish I could still wear mini's and fishnets. Probably look like a whore I know, but just to even think I could wear them would be something!!
CJ xx
that is such a great poster!
Thank you ladies! I am so relieved I was taken from behind…so to speak.
Liz – I'm sure the grandkids will love looking at it "oh yes, there's granny as a whore". My teenage son is not quite so keen on this image being plastered all over town in a few weeks time.
Eternally distracted – a marvellous tool indeed for stretching legs.
CJ – Thankfully for all the family I won't be going out like this as I do look like an old tart in this get-up.
Heather – probably too cold for you to get kitted out like this? 😉
OMG, you look fab, I think I would have that made into wallpaper! Seriously though, keep a copy and get it framed.
OH YESSS!!!!! This is the best fun ever isn't it?
Teenage son be damned! It's in the Job Description to embarass one's offspring – but to do it in such style….. Yeay You!
Digging out my thigh-highs tonight and putting the camera in husband's paws – I want I want ……….
Fantastic and look at those legs! Seriously though for Suffolk that would be very upmarket tart – I mean tights too…;)
Wow, I have leg envy! Don't really believe your Photoshop excuses – I saw the earlier pic of you in your whorehouse gladrags and you are a fine figure of a woman!
I DARE you to wear this on the school run. Go on, just the once…
VB – have placed my order with the photographer!Thinking of making it next year's Christmas card?
MadameSmokingGun – I do hope you and your husband had a good night – so pleased I could be a catalyst!
Tattie – Yes, tights – but rather a large fishnet so plenty of access….ahem!
NWBI – Can't do the school run – he gets the bus.
Wow! No wonder your husband didn't mind the outfit being in the spare room! Great legs! Excellent post, what a laugh you must be having!
PS – Perhaps you could make that your blog title photo?!!
Footballers Knees – what a brilliant idea! Might as well make the most of it. Have changed my profile pic(thought the blog title photo might stretch me in the wrong direction!)
Wow now they are good boots 😉 how exciting that role must be to play!
Haha! Thanks Wendy – I thought you'd be impressed. May need to borrow them permanently from the wardrobe department!
That imagine is filthy brilliance.
