The Traders, The Strip.ers, The Dwarf & The Stretch Limo

The London Metal Exchange had its annual dinner at Grosvenor House last week and, so the column says, some of the traders went out after to continue letting their hair down at the likes of the Spearmint Rhino and Stringfellows adult entertainment clubs. Another group of more enterprising traders, however, thought it would be a good lark to engage the services of Limousine Strip. The traders had a PA make the call to the company, which specializes, according to its website, in 'lap dancing on the move', and claims to be 'the world's No. 1 for lap dancing strippers in stretch limousines'!

Said to have shelled out a cool $2,400 for an hour of 'fun', the traders allegedly ordered two strippers and a dwarf . The dwarf, it seems, had to be under 4 feet tall, so he could walk up and down the limo and serve drinks. He was also required to wear a tux.

For those interested in this service, you might like to know that the company has offices in Amsterdam as well as London and New York. On departure from your destination you will usually be served drinks by your chosen dancer, which will be followed 'by close contact lap dancing and strip till fully nude'. Punters can, it seems, touch the girls ' 'as long as you ask first gentlemen!.......(although) you cannot touch below the dancers' waist'.

My, what is the world coming to ? Note to Human Resources - quick, better amend policy to ban possible staff trips with limo strips!!
