"Lockdown 69" happened to the whole world in Spring 2020... here is the story of Belinda Blumenthal and her COCK members.Locked down in the office as the world fell to pieces Belinda was left to organise the sleeping arrangements for the entire Steeles Pots and Pans staff... and some guests... very special guests such as the Countess of Leningrad, their training Guru Natasha Biles and her latest recruit Samantha... But the story moves quickly on as the Duchess recruits Belinda to work with the British Government to ensure the continuity of a pots and pans supply for Britain. But sinister and devious forces were afoot and Steeles were now about to feel the chill wind of fraud, bankruptcy and oblivion. Belinda, Bella, Des Martin and surprisingly Dave Wilcox... Regional Manager South West, were thrown into a battle rarely seen in the industry culminating in the initiation ceremony of the latest recruits to COCK.

Enter villains D'artagnan Raspberry, Sammy Quin and Peggy Strumpethouse... newly married to Jim Thompson, Belinda's admin man. All holidaying in a South Sea island, revenge, death and nasty meat pies took their toll and it was all left to Helga of the FBI to clean up the international side of things. But back in London the sales of pots and pans had to go on and with some very important clients to entertain, Belinda and Bella were kept busy despite the ongoing crisis... But total disaster was approaching in the fast lane, MI6 intelligence had identified Wolfgang Bisch as the prime suspect... and this time he wasn't taking prisoners...Belinda Blinked...

Belinda blinked, it wasn't a dream, the job interviewer had just asked her to remove her jacket and silk blouse.

Generations of social thinkers have assumed that access to legitimate paid employment and a decline in the ‘double standard’ would eliminate the reasons behind women’s participation in prostitution. Yet in both the developing world and in postindustrial cities of the West, sexual commerce has continued to flourish, diversifying along technological, spatial, and social lines. In this deeply engaging and theoretically provocative study, Elizabeth Bernstein examines the social features that undergird the expansion and diversification of commercialized sex, demonstrating the ways that postindustrial economic and cultural formations have spawned rapid and unforeseen changes in the forms, meanings, and spatial organization of sexual labor. Drawing upon dynamic and innovative research with sex workers, their clients, and state actors, Bernstein argues that in cities such as San Francisco, Stockholm, and Amstersdam, the nature of what is purchased in commercial sexual encounters is also new. Rather than the expedient exchange of cash for sexual relations, what sex workers are increasingly paid to offer their clients is an erotic experience premised upon the performance of authentic interpersonal connection. As such, contemporary sex markets are emblematic of a cultural moment in which the boundaries between intimacy and commerce—and between public life and private—have been radically redrawn. Not simply a compelling exploration of the changing landscape of sex-work, Temporarily Yours ultimately lays bare the intimate intersections of political economy, desire, and culture.
