    Yes i know what you mean, i was ever so slightly dissapointed.
    I was also expecting a tamed down routine from her too.

    She did look immaculate as always though and she's such a sweety.

    £43, no no no, there taking the mickey, I think it retails at £8.99.
    Check out Immodestys website.

    It's a fictional work based on a performer called Tiger -

    (Not as in the athletic new yorker we love)

    Blerb taken form IB Website -

    Tiger Starr has risen from nothing to become burlesque ’s most sensational showgirl…She’s bewitched an adoring public and media with her old school Hollywood glamour, hourglass curves and wickedly, sexy stage shows.

    Tiger’s life is a whirlwind of glamour, diamonds, celebrity parties and more than her fair share of suitors. She seems to finally have it all. But though she may have the talents to bring any man – or woman – to their knees, Tiger never lets her friends or lovers get too close. Only now, she’s finally ready to take a chance on love...

    But beneath all the glitz and the feathers, she’s hiding more than her modesty. As she prepares for the most important show of her life, it seems somebody is intent on exposing the dark secrets of her carefully guarded past.

    Unfortunately, there’s more than one likely candidate. Is it one of Tiger’s discarded lovers? A rival showgirl? Or even her jealous sister? As her world starts to unravel, Tiger will have to fight for survival, by delivering the performance of her life

    I think Harper Collins are the publisher but im not sure.

    ISBN 9780091930011

    Thank you, but we were talking about The Same Old Grind, that seems to be out of print, but i'm still not paying £43 for it.

    I've pre-ordered Tease for £8 and i can't wait, tassles, glitter and glam. I'm loving it already.

    There's quite a few copies you can get on american bookseller websites for about $8 plus shipping

    It's a novel by Judy Roe that was published in 1975.

    But I thought I saw someone on Amazon UK selling it for about £18....might be wrong, or possibly they put the price up the moment Immodesty mentioned it

    Perhaps we could buy a communal copy and pass it around

    Like an MoB library, fantastic idea. I think that after Immodesty and Paul mentioned it there will be a fair few people looking for it, so with any luck they might be a few more around soon.

    I've been researching The Same Old Grind this morning and it is no longer in print, so check out second hand book shops and car boot sales.
