SM-Fetish Play Party, February 11th, 2011, hosted by Mistress Manita

Party 108 – The 9 year anniversary
Visitors: 310

9 Years and 108 parties ago it all started for Rob and me.
Terribly nervous and without an insight of what was to be expected, we waited at the entrance for who would come or if anybody would appear at all.
The first party was a huge success and is still one of the best visited ones of all.
In total aw we looked at the long row of beautifully dressed people, most of them with play-suitcases.
Such a big turn up we hadn’t expected in our wildest dreams.
Silently hoping for 60 to 80 visitors, what would have satisfied us very much for a first time, turned out to be over 250 people who found their way to Zaandijk.
I still can remember vividly that by then I really got nervous and couldn’t think how to manage this evening.
Against all advises that a serious BDSM and Fetish Party would never become successful in a swingers club, I still pushed this concept through with my big mouth.
Not that I’m stubborn in any way, because, of course, I’m absolutely not, but sometimes you just have that feeling that something is going to work.
But when the Showboat was suddenly completely full, I did have to live up to a swingers club being suitable for an SM-Fetish Party.
At the end it turned out quite well for that first party as well as the 107 editions that came after that and I’m pretty proud of that.
Of course a big part of the success of my SM-Fetish Party is thanks to the Showboat, which is a great location for these kind of parties.
Superb personnel, clean, comfortable, luxurious, easy to reach, showers, clothe lockers, free toilets, free towels, in short Showboat has it all.

Every year I’m trying to make something special of my jubilee parties by offering just that bit more then at my "normal" editions.
Like planning two instead of one show, every visitor gets a glass of bubbly to toast with, The Showboat takes care of an extra-large and delicious buffet and I give everyone a little present when they leave to go home
I just like to celebrate my birthday with people who are precious to me and most of the visitors that come to my party have become just that by now.
Everyone who has been to my birthday party at home knows I always do that elaborate and the jubilee party is no exception.

As I wrote before there were two shows Friday.
The first, traditionally like at every jubilee party, a beautiful bondage show by Ropemarks.
As good friends I have asked Bob and Chantal 9 years ago if they were willing to do a bondage show at my new to organize SM-Fetish party
Sweethearts as they are, they did this with devotion and have done so all these years at every jubilee.
A good tradition you have to cherish and the bondage art of Ropemarks not being at my parties is unthinkable in my point of view.
Ropemarks no longer exists of Bob and Chantal, but of Bob and the Dutch Dame.
Which doesn’t make a difference by the way for the very high quality of their performances; the shows have definitely become different, but certainly not of lesser quality.
Nice to tell that Chantal was also present Friday and that had been quite a while.
Chantal still has a special place in my heart, so it was good to see her again with her new boyfriend.

The second show was done by Brigitte More, who, besides making insanely beautiful Fetish clothes, also has been giving magnificent shows for years with the same eye for detail as with her clothes.
This show was with Inga, a beautiful girl and a big metal device on which Inga got tied up.
The ingenious thing about this, apparently taken from the inquisition era, torture device was that there was a crank to rotate the victim horizontally.
I can imagine that it’s pretty scary to be tied up and be rotated forward, but Inga seemed to enjoy it a lot.
I can understand that quite a bit, because Brigitte is not just anyone to play with.
The combination of fierce music, impressive outfits and bizarre appearance made this show very special and exciting.
During the show I was given two of Brigitte’s favourite whips, well used single tails which traditionally go from Dominatrix to Dominatrix when she quits.
Of course I am very grateful and honoured with such an emotional gift and promise hereby sincerely to cherish and take very good care of these two darlings, to give them with love to someone worthy of using them if I ever decide to quit.
But I’m afraid that that will still take quite some time, because I still like this all way too much.

The clothing stand at my Jubilee party is also steady on the way to become a tradition too.
Just like last year Peter Domenie was there again with his beautiful and very artistic clothing.
Also, just like last year, Peter brought his superb professional stand, so his clothing was presented very beautifully
That certainly has contributed to Peter selling so well, but that also is almost inevitable with such exceptional and artistic clothing
To make the tradition truly a tradition, Peter promised to also be at the jubilee party next year to spoil us with beautiful outfits.

This year Cat was behind the Champagne bar, my slave girl and gradually regular play partner at my parties.
By the way lovingly assisted by her husband Patrick, a good team as it showed Friday.
Sweethearts, you did great, thank you for that
Of course, how else, I thanked Cat later in my own more intense way.
I even thanked her so well that she will have problems sitting for a couple of days, well let me just say you have to feel the love.
The present photographers took a couple of exciting pictures of it.

As for the photographers who faithfully take pretty pictures every month, this is the moment to thank them extra.
My regular photographers are Cor, Erik and my husband Rob, three different people with all three their specific way of shooting pictures.
In my conviction the constant success of my parties is a big part thanks to the fact that we publish a selection of pictures, which are visible to everyone who is interested in my party.
I believe there isn’t a better way to promote what you stand for as a party and therefore I’m very grateful to my photographers.
Because it was also his jubilee Rob didn’t take Pictures this time, but I found a good replacement in our neighbour Kenneth.
Kenneth is a professional photographer and liked to photograph a completely different world.
Also Kenneth, much oblige for your affords Friday.

Who I also owe a lot of gratitude is my faithful team of DM-s.
Thysca, Johan and Richard are my eyes and ears in the Play Rooms.
Without really being notices they check the visitors on responsible play, bad or pushy behaviour, drug abuse, hindering other players, give if needed information and guard the obligatory dress code.
I never could do this all by myself, so my DM-s are vital and essential.
Sweethearts, thank you so much for another year of devotion and trust in my party concept.

Also my regular DJ’s Marcel S and Marco Verhoeven deserve a thumbs up for their efforts during previous party year.
I have had different DJ’s in the past 9 years, but you are the only ones I never get complaints or comments about.
In previous reports I’ve written about it, I am no specialist in Dance music and don’t really have affinity with it.
But danceable music is an essential part of my SM-Fetish Party and is creating the atmosphere.
Therefore it is very pleasant for someone as uninitiated as me if I can hand this over to a trustworthy DJ-Team.
Marcel and Marco, sweeties thank you for your efforts and trustworthiness.

Only thing left is for me to thank the captain and complete crew for another pleasant and fruitful cooperation.
Arie, Petra, Albert, the hardworking chefs, the always friendly bar personnel, the doormen and cleaners, you all get a big kiss of gratitude from me.

On to another year of exciting and thrilling SM-Fetish Play Parties, starting on Friday the 11th of March.

Love,

Mistress Manita
