There's a light, burning in the fireplace...
A clip from one of my favourite movies - The Rocky Horror Picture Show - I sooo wanted to be dark and sexy Magenta, because I could never be as wonderful and sexy as Tim Curry...
Lord knows, how they ever got Barry Bostwick and Susan Sarandon, even Little Nell, to appear in this movie - Incroyable, non?! But if you've never seen it, and you like mock-schlock-rock-horror musicals and parody, then check it out, mes bloggy cineastes...
Meatloaf also makes a scheduled, and memorable appearance... As I did last night, visiting the Ladyboys of Bangkok, of all things, in Newcastle in a plastic pavilion next to the famed Centre for Life (academic research into genetics and also a fun place for kids to visit if you're ever in town).
More laters, mes bloggy corset-wearers! Yikes!
Fhina exits stage left singing, 'I am what I am...' a la Priscilla Queen of the Desert...
Rent one of these movies this weekend, mai dahlinks, if you've never seen them, and you're liberally inclined... Merci mille!

Ah! Vintage Fhina, in great stride. Love coming here!
I love Rocky Horror! I always wanted to be Columbia, though now I think Magenta has way better Halloween Costume opportunities...
Priscilla, Queen of the Desert - a great movie and one I have on video. In fact, I shall dig it out and watch it again with the wife; we bothed loved it when we saw it at the cinema.
Little known fact: I once sat next to Terence Stamp, naked save a little towel, in a Turkish bath in London about 20 years ago. We chatted for a while - nice man.
Saucy Fhina!
Maybe I should rethink my wardrobe for Willow's Ball. What do you say?
The Lady Boys must have been running for a while as my mother saw them there ages ago. She wasn't too impressed, but other people must be or they'd have closed it down.
lakeviewer: Bless you, ciara x
Undercover caterer: I may have got the names wrong - The lovely lady with the huge red hair and fabulously Goth make-up... Which one was that? I'm probably far closer to Christopher Biggins, in any case ;)
Dumdad: Priscilla, Queen of the Desert - is one of my husband's favourite films I must admit... Get some popcorn in, Sir, hope you have a wonderful evening with Madame la Grenouillette. What a tale about Terence Stamp - What a legend! What exciting experiences you've had in this life, Sir!
Derrick: I think you would make a fabulous Franken Furter! Definitely something in red, or that lovely powder blue I've seen you wearing - What think you?
Expat mum: I think they have - And they all work very hard, I must admit - It was an odd experience and we had a good laugh - it was a full house, mainly women in wine, but some men who were treated as 'fair bait' really... Odd, and gave me a real flavour about what some of the bars in Bangkok must be like? x
Love Susan Sarandon. Wasn't a big fan of the Rocky Horror Show though!
