    oh, oh, could you tell me how it is when you have been there. Last time my husband and I went there it didn't work out again .

    My husband is kind of at home in that city. Great place, it is.

    If I am found adequate for such a calendar, I would be willing, although I am not sure about other people's opinions .

    Will let you know!


    As for the calendar.... it would only be fair if it was half men, half women. So, any men want to post some steamy shots of themselves?

    Deprived of a higher contribution, I'd do my bit this way too.

    Nothing to show from here for the time being... mayhap in another life

    I suppose we'd need two calendars, and people could order whichever appeals.

    I'll happily serve with Bien on a picture judging committee, but I'd probably need a couple years in a gym before being suitable to appear. De-aging by 20-25 years wouldn't hurt either.

    We'll have to find photographers in our varying locations who will work for free and know how to do bikini shoots.

    I think it would be fun.

    It's probably not calendar-worthy, but I like this one:



    I'm dressed in (what I am assured) is standard dress for a Bengali teacher, to celebrate Saraswati Puja (a festival celebrating education). Two of my housemates are from Kolkata, and wanted to do a big bash to celebrate it - including providing all of us with costumes. My Polish housemate, Agata, in particular looked stunning in a sari.

    As for the teacher look, I'm told the wine glass is optional...

    Also important: This being a literature forum swimsuit calendar, the subjects in the photos should be exhibiting books, on the off chance that people will actually notice what they're carrying. So just for fun, what book would you all be carrying in your pictures?

    For myself, I'd have a hardcover edition of War and Peace, both because it's not a typical "beach read", and because hoisting that monster will bring out the biceps.

    Maybe I'll submit one in the nature of this one. :-)

    Varenne lives up to her reputation, I believe.

    Agreed.

    Ditto.

    And, in the meantime ladies, there's nothing stopping you from posting ametuer bikini pictures, after all.

    Probably a speedo picture. Come on, Tony, the ladies would love it.

    That's ****ing awesome. Looks like you're inviting us in for a symposium and have already started well ahead on the wine.

    This is really awesome Lok. I think it should be the front cover of the calendar.

    Great idea, Cal. Maybe you could have Les Mis in your other hand, that way you could do some bicep curls before the shoot...

    I think I'd choose the obvious- Lolita

    Yes, yes we would. Please re-post your speedo picture. It would shine a bit of light on my bleak world.
