Friday Caption Competition: Camel-Hoof Amsterdam Fetish-Wear Edition

Before we come to that though, three cheers to everyone who entered last week’s contest. The clear winner was Katja Leyendecker, who correctly identified the London cyclist as a Boris Bike Braveheart escapee with the caption:

“It’s all for nothing if you don’t have your freedom”

This week we continue in this theme of the foreign and outré, with this photograph snapped by Marc, of the fine citizens of Amsterdam going about their daily stuff:

No - like you, I’m just baffled at the things these decadent foreigners get up to.

But if you’ve any idea what’s going on here, please do tell - the best response will win a piece of fantastic tourist-grade fetish-wear, straight from a dungeon on Warmoesstraat:

Good luck!


I am indebted to Von Smallhaussen for explaining the term “camel-hoof” to me, which has since been a source of constant amusement.

    “Hey guys… Maybe a pink basket might be a smarter idea than these lunchboxes ??”
