Chapter Seven ‘Would all dancers please clear the floor and take your seats for exceptional entertainent, those of a nervous disposition leave now.’ There was laughter from the crowd as they made their way back to their seats. As soon as the floor was clear the lights in the main hall were dimmed leaving the room almost dark, the only lighting left being the small wall lamps which afforded just enough light to see one,s immediate vicinity. There was a hushed murmur when the hall went dark and there was a louder buzz when the stage lights were switched on and as the curtains opened the buzz turned into gasps. Standing on the stage were two giant blacks, naked except for loin cloths; both stood well over six feet in height there bodies gleaming under the bright stage lighting. Broad shouldered and well formed six pack chests they were,in deed, veritable athletes. Between them they held two wooden posts about four inches square; they were eight feet in height and were connected to each other with some kind of leather straps.
At the base each post was fitted with cross members to allow free standing; just above the base each upright was furnished with small foot holds the use of which would soon be apparent. The m.c. appeared on the stage and with microphone in hand addressed the audience. ‘Can we have some lady volunteers please, whoever is selected will enjoy half an hour of exotic sensations the like of which they will never have experienced and which will remain in their, and everyone else,s memory for a long, long time.’ ‘Come along please who,s first.’ After a few moments one and then two more ladies walked slowly towards the stage not quite sure whether they should have put themselves forward; they were escorted through to the back of the stage where a small flight of steps lead up onto the dais. The m.c. brought them forward to the front of the stage and lined them up. He turned to the waiting audience, ‘I,m going to stand behind each one and when I raise my hand I want to hear your acclaim. Whoever gets the loudest cheer will win this most exciting of experiences.
He turned to the three damsels. ‘Ladies,’ he waved his hand across the trio, ‘ladies if you are not selected do not be disappointed you will have plenty of opportunity to indulge in your wildest dreams on many other occasions. So let us begin.’ Of the three women, two were blondes and the other was a raven haired beauty of slightly more exotic proportions and it was she who the audience decided would be the ‘winner’. Turning to the losing blondes he thanked them and ushered them off the stage, then turning to the dark haired girl took her hand and twirled her around to the delight of the waiting throng. The m.c. whispered in the lady,s ear and after some deliberation she nodded her head. Then the entertainment began. In the audience Charlotte turned to her husband, ‘I,ll sit on your lap I can see everything then.’ Steve made himself comfortable and Charlotte lowered herself onto her husband. ‘Comfy!, whispered Steve. ‘Mmmm,’ replied his wife as she snuggled back onto him and as Steve placed his arms around her waist.
