It’s a dirty job, but somebody’s got to do it. Today we head off to Berlin for the Venus show. We go partly to meet suppliers, find new products and shoot the breeze in the bar – but mostly to marvel at the incredibly explicit floor shows put on by the porn companies. The fish tanks are always an eye-opener…
We’re there for the trade day on Thursday, when the show is not open to the public, which is the only way to survive. Once the doors are thrown open on Friday, the 4 enormous exhibition halls at the Messe Berlin are packed to the gunwales with moustachioed leatherclad German porn fans (not that I’m stereotyping them), who prowl the floor shows pointing their video cameras at anything naked.
Sadly, we’re coming back on Friday morning so our going to miss that evening’s Venus Gala where, 1,000 guests will thrill to the sound of Right Said Fred. Worse, we’ll also be missing the grand finale of the Miss Venus beauty pageant.
But I’ll be sure to bring you a full report at the weekend…
