Ms R is all tied up

You set up a blog, you charm and amuse your male readers, yet you receive no gifts. Not one. Do they think they get all this brains and babelocity for free? Do they think they can keep their positions in Ms R's Dictatorship on the strength of their sycophantic comments alone? Evidently. Except for one.

Last Friday Ms R opened to the door to the postman and was handed a package. She opened it and found this.


Now this sort of gift will find a place on Ms R's bed any day


It was from her witty, learned friend, a barrister who at times himself comes dangerously close to getting arrested, but who Ms R would love to have on her side. Well it seems she has. She opened it and found these. Oh, gosh, now she remembered! They'd somehow cropped up in correspondence between her and her learned friend. Sexy knickers in the conversation? How did that happen?


Oh look they have easy to undo ties at the sides...how handy!

Ms R had mentioned to her Most Favourite And Talented Barrister that Agent Provocateur were bringing out knickers to support Reprieve, a charity founded to work for prisoners on Death Row. The director of Reprieve is one Clive Stafford Smith, a man whom Ms R has heard speak (and watched..sigh). You may have seen him on television discussing the Guantanamo inmates he represents. He is witty, erudite, charming and compelling. A man who can get his opinion across without having to demolish others to do it. And frankly, if you can't wear your knickers for such a bloke, who can you do it for?

The man who bought them for you of course. The man who did not hestitate to get to Agent Provocateur pronto. Truly a selfless, thoughtful man. How will Ms R thank him?


The least Ms R can do for Mr Stafford Smith..and her learned friend of course



Goodness, how does one get out of these? Help please...


The knickers are on sale in AP now. Reprieve do a lot of their work, largely on a volunteer basis and Ms R suggests you visit the website (click on the link above). And buy the knickers. Or find an evil gentleman to do it for you.

NB: Geeklawyer has been promoted in The Supreme Dictator's administration. It was only fair.

Books, mugs,
and now knickers! Whatever good cause can we promote next, and on what?

Nice arse.

geeklawyer said...

Justice *and* pictures of a hot arse - can there be a finer combination?

Ms Robinson said...

Luka, the mug idea is hysterical. My keyboard is now awash with hot water and lemon. Thank you for the compliment. x

Geeklawyer: Well there may be something...a helpful hand,a man with a wonderful voice instructing Ms R how to get out of them for example..

Ed R said...

Oh, My.

Ed R said...

I'd just like to know one thing- who took the pictures? ;)

Ms Robinson said...

Mr Self time Ed...

Mr Pineapples said...

Why is Clive Stafford Smith taking to wearing knickers in this way? He's even showing a bit of his arse in one of these pics.

That guy will stop at nothing to get some publicity.

A bleedin' disgrace.

Ed R said...

They're very well done!

Ms Robinson said...

Mr Pineapples: It's pathetic really isn't it? You'd think people would rely purely on their intellect to attract numbers to their blogs but no, they have to go and cheapen it. And cheap is what it is.

Ed R: Merci, Ed.

bittersweet me said...

cor

i am impressed; by your arse, of course, and the evil gentleman in question. He has style.

i shall be hinting broadly ...

Helga Hansen said...

Wow!! Sexy stuff... *and in Guantanamo Orange!! They go so well with your tan too... I think they would make my rather large posterior rather inferior!

It's nice to know that AP isn't all about naughty knickers, but rather naughty knickers with a conscience.

Suzanne Portnoy said...

Ms. R, What a lovely surprise. I think a promotion was only fair under the circumstances.

Luka said...

There's room for a much lengthier and more detailed message on my pants.

I mention this on the off chance anyone wants to invest in my charity bloomers.

Ms Robinson said...

Bittersweet: Thank you kindly. Yes he has singlehandedly rescued the image of lawyers.

Helga: Thanks Helga. I rather like orange. Yes I thought Agent Prov did a good thing - apparently it was a chance meeting between the guy who owns it and the wonderful (sigh) Mr Stafford Smith.

Suzanne: Well I hope the other men in my dictatorship take note. It's not all about sending people into exile you know.

Luka: Charity Big Pants. They would have multiple messages on them you could choose from. I shall expect to see them on your blog forthwith.

Ian said...

Good cause, fine lawyer and, as has been noted by other correspondents, sexy bum (not that I personally spent time checking ot out or anything -- certainly no more than half an hour or so).

And due credit to the originator of the idea - http://www.reasonsyouwillhateme.com/the-sincerest-form-of-flattery

Mei Del said...

ah Ms R you've just reaffirmed that politics can be sexy *;-)

*slips into a sensory overload induced coma*

Freddy said...

Oh gosh!
Golly
i mean, errm

Hell's teeth MsR you might have warned us!

at the risk of sounding somewhat sycophantic (damnit - you're the Great Dictatress, sycophancy is demanded)

FINE ARSE! What should I send you to encourage more such pictures?

Ms Robinson said...

Ian: I'm sure you only glanced and I respect you for it

Mei Del: Ms R will always do her best for a good cause, especially when there is lingerie and gifts involved

Greavsie: Should I be pleased?

Freddy: Just go to the Agent Provocateur website..I'm sure you will find more. Of course I will have to think of a witty post to go with it

Devil's Kitchen said...

Hellllooooooo nurse!

Uh... I mean, thank goodness for the Knickers of Justice...

EmmaK said...

if I may offer you a backhanded compliment...there are few who can carry off orange but you can!

Yes, HOW does one get out of those? Poor Ms. R... I believe she's quite helpless.

You are my hero for this post.

Ms Robinson said...

DK: Stuck for words? Surely not.

Emma K: It has always been one of my colours.

AB: It is very heroic of me to wear knickers that I may not be able to untie, I agree.

Freddy said...

I looked at that website MsR, as instructed, but crikey.
Who knew that such small items of clothing could cost SO much?
anyways, in a blind tasting a top exponent of the queening art couldn't distinguish between supermarket own label and the hautest of haute couture. So I'm off to Tesco - where do I send them?

geeklawyer said...

Oh Freddy, expensive knickers are a *cheap* investment. MsR is a classy lady you'll never get to ravish her if you buy her Tesco knickers.

Freddy said...

It's because MsR is so classy that I know that whatever underwear I buy her won't make a ha'porth of difference to my prospect of, as you so quaintly put it, 'ravishing her'.
I'm pinning my chances on my image as a bit of 'unsophisticated nortern rough' with a heart of gold. That and the muscular tongue and an ability to breathe through my ears...

Freddy said...

PS
I think we should all add our thanks to GL for his gift to MsR. Without that act of selfless generosity we may never have had the joy of seeing that mighty fine derriere.

Conan Drumm said...

At the risk of losing my head, might I caution Your Excellency? Lawyers are notoriously fickle - knickers one day, the guillotine the next. And, as someone almost said, beware of geeks bearing gifts...

Ms Robinson said...

Freddy: Tesco is simply not good enough. It is like saying ordinary kissing is not necessary when of course Ms R likes world class kissing (and apparently is good at it). Would you give Ms R a supermarket kiss?


Freddy you have been trading on your Northern charm for too long and while Ms R does like a Northern man (met a cute Liverpool boy in the gym last week) she likes one who knows the value of expensive knickers even better.

GL: All true of course. Ms R is a lady who likes a prelude and it must be the right one

CD: Conan, you always see the bigger picture and historically of course you are right but Ms feels she has the situation under cotnrol. BTW, as my Chief Minister For Culture, should you not be organising a March parade for us?

Conan Drumm said...

Indeed, preparations are well underway.

On Easter Sunday there will be a 'Renaissance March' which will culminate in the destruction of the Tate Modern.

You will trigger the detonation from the MSRV1 (your official vessel) on the Thames. Any exhibits approved by the Ministry will have been removed to your residences in advance for safe-keeping.

Ad said...

Schwing, MsR.

Re: CD's 'Renaissance March', could the Tate Modern be left alone until I've been to see the Duchamp/Man Ray/Picabia,? Please.

Globus said...

ordinarily globus would be here because of the pants alone however he was a previous visitor, honest. AP has saved him often by way of last-minute appeasements to various mistresses. good to see the trick works for others too :-)

Ms Robinson said...

Conan: perfect because I think the collections there are utterly nervous and pointless. Thank you for your diligence and excellent work once again. You may have the afternoon off to rape and pillage.

Ad: thank you and as for Tate, Ms R's hunch is that it will be disappointing.

Globus: Ms R remembers you. Good that you come for the writing. Sadly this is not an appeasement as I'm sure Ms R would have got more. Ms R is happy to accept more.

having my cake said...

Im confused. It isnt Thursday.

But I do agree that Clive Stafford Smith is very charismatic.

simply wondered said...

is this somehow on the theme of 'the law is an arse'?
