Tired of Musical Chairs and Charades? Want to liven up your parties with a few of the games which put the 0-la-la! into French party giving? Then this is the book for you. You can start with innocent games like 'The Divorce' or 'The Perfumed Garden Game'. Then get warmed up with 'Maids of Honour' and 'The Double Bed Game'. As for the closed section — you'd better buy the book and find out about THAT for yourself! We guarantee this will liven any party — even if you do lose your partner!
After enduring the worst Jackboot Girls (Nazi Party Games?) could throw at me, i figured it was time for a treat, so - Madame Xavier's Deportment School, The Marquis Game, Pop It In .... Phew! 128 pages of extreme sensual erotica here i come!
But.
Draw Me A Shape
"A guest is placed behind a screen and given an object - anything - a bottle, a cucumber, a doughnut - anything. He or she then has to describe the object, not mentioning color or smell. Those in the room then have to draw what they hear described and, if they guess, write down the object the person is holding. Comparisons of drawings and thoughts on the subject are made with the object itself."
Surround The Girl
""The photograph of a nude pin-up is placed, face up, on a table. A mirror is erected alongside the photograph Using a felt pen, male guests are then invited to draw a thick line round the girl's contours without looking directly at the photo, but only at her reflection in the mirror. To make sure a man doesn't cheat, a tray can be held between his face and the hand holding the pen, while still allowing him to look at the mirror. Girls can also be invited to draw an outline around a male model photograph."
Pop It In
"Each girl cooks a special sweet dish and her husband tastes it. All competing husbands are then blindfolded and lined up. The wives, with their dish, then walk down the line feeding all the husbands. The first husband to recognise his wife's dish is the winner. A team of men and a team of girls are blindfolded. Each girl is given a piece of chocolate and told that each piece is different. For example, one girl has plain chocolate, another milk, another fruit and nut, etc. IN FACT all have a piece of plain chocolate. They then try and pop the piece of chocolate into the men's mouths. Once this is done, all blindfolds are removed and the girls THIS TIME are each given a bar of different chocolate. By sampling a piece from each girl, the men must then find the one who gave them the piece of "blind" chocolate. They will all, of course, choose the girl who has the piece of plain chocolate - thus causing confusion and, it is hoped, fun."
From the first, I set myself against "literature"; the story was the thing, and no amount of style could persuade me to select a story that lacked genuine, unadulterated horror. For those who wanted something high-brow there was plenty.
