Rubber Fetishists Unite

We’re now less than two weeks away from the Electric Picnic and the forecasters are predicting more of the same weather that’s been the trademark of Irish summers for the past five years. Yes, ladies and gentlemen we can expect some rain. Anyone who was there last year will remember that it rained on day two and day three and then on the Monday morning. That was probably the reason most people left their tents behind them. There is only one thing worse than taking down a wet tent and that’s putting up a wet tent. Which leads us to the important issue of wellies, because your white slip-on things that you’ve been wearing out this summer are going to last all of five seconds at Stradbally unless you spend the whole festival on the big wheel or back in the car park listening to the radio. There are two simple rules when it comes to wellies. For straight guys anything that isn’t black, green or navy is like borrowing a poodle for the day and taking it out for a stroll in a pair of hot pants. For the ladies, it’s even simpler: just copy what Kate Moss has done most recently. And Just like a hangover is often the price for a great night out, the price of Bodytonic showing you this exquisite Kate Moss picture is exposure to Pete Doherty too. Apologies. Sincere apologies.
