Something of the history of MDS

How it has developed over the years

And the people behind MDS.

Back in March 2003, Master Phil and morgan_MP were involved in running the BFE (Bristol Fetish Emporium) of whomMaster Phil had been one of the instigators when it first started up in 2000.

Due to a heavy work load they were on the point of retiring from the BFE (now SWAMP ), when they were approached by the owner of an adult club in Weston Super Mare, asking advice on how to run an event with a fetish/BDSM flavour. And so MDS (Maison de Sade) was born in May 2003.

At first a tri-yearly event, then a bi annual event, it stayed in Weston until May 2008 when the venue exchanged hands.

An interim venue was found in Club O in Bristol, where a new name EDS was used, Club O is also where Master Phil and morgan_MP had their collaring, but they continued looking for a venue aimed at the people who enjoyed the original ambient feeling of MDS.

Then there was a phone call. It turned out to be the new owners of Vamps asking us if we would like to return, it did not take much thinking about and consequently we have returned to Vamps/Players in Weston Super Mare

So looking forward to seeing you on May 2nd,

Master Phil and morgan_MP
