"Polenastics"

With three kids under 4 years old, my wife finds it necessary to have a visiting hairdresser. Nothing remarkable about that except that this lady is into "Polenastics", which is apparently like gymnastics but with a pole not bars or a beam; it keeps you fit, she says. Indeed, as I recall, all the pole dancers I have tipped in various dubious places around the world have been fairly "athletic". How do they hold themselves upside down with only their thighs for support?

So, my wife has decided to have a pole dancing birthday party.
"Yippee!" I cried. But it is only for the girls she has decreed. I ask you, what's the point of girls-only pole dancing? Actually, I can think of a very good reason but you'd need a camcorder and my wife won't even allow that.

I am working on ways of getting invited: I could be a waiter; cross-dresser; peeping tom, even. I have some friends who are coppers so a bit of covert surveillance might help although they are a bit reticent; some crap about "professionalism". Come on, let's prioritise here. Some of my wife's friends are fulsome so there may be a few health and safety issues but it would be worth watching them too, if only for comedy value.
