ANGELA THE NORSE WOMAN AND VALKYRIE 65 by Hamlet A VISIT TO A FILIPINO RESTAURANT Christine took me by the hand and led me by away.She then turned around and spoke to me as if I was a little child ,even though I was old enough to be Her father and She was only 16!   She turned around to face me.   'Stephen I have just seen a Papian woman touch you .Do you know what are the rules about being touched by Papians?   'I'm sorry Christine, it's just that the Transport Officer (TO) Madame Andrea asked me if I wanted some after shave after I had been to the toilet '   She grabbed me hard by the neck in Her leather gloved hands showing Her superior power and strength to me.   'Stephen you refer to me as Madame Christine even if I am much younger than you.In the second place if I ever see you talk to a Papian ever again, this hand will go smashing right across your face, do you understand? I will now take you to your Mistress Angela to see what She thinks of your behaviour!'   Christine took me by the hand back to Angela .I could see She was not too pleased either.   'Stephen where have you been?'   'I'm sorry Mistress Angela I've been in the toilet'   'What, it takes you 15 minutes to go to the toilet does it?'     'I'm sorry Mistress Angela .I won't do it again. It's just that I was admiring Your wonderful Rail system and Your really clean toilets'   'I know our Rail system is the best in the world as everything else is in this Nation!   'Yes Mistress Angela!'   'What's more you stay with Us for the whole evening and you don't speak to strangers at all ,especially not Papians and Filipinos!'   'Yes Mistress Angela' I said knowing I had to do exactly as She told me.   'When we go to the restaurant you'd better not speak to Filipinos ,Stephen. You know that I might like the food but I can't stand them!' said Helga holding the crop menacingly.   'Yes Madame Helga!'   'Right let's go to that restaurant .I'm starving' said Angela.   We walked outside on the station concourse. In Norselandic stations were called  Rail Palaces and that was what this was!It was huge just like the Supermarkets!It  seemed to go on for miles .It was called Berchta Station and only dealt with suburban services and services within a 100 KM radius of the City .The Station covered 3 floors!   There were 3 other stations that were even bigger than this one.They were all named after Norse Goddesses; Fricka that served the south of the Nation and the high speed trains that came from the south of the Nation, Gerda that served the central region of the Nation and Valkyra that served the northern region and Papia.The Stations in Stefansholm the capital  were named after the Norse Gods ,the largest of all being Odin, the biggest Station in the world!   As always the Station was spotlessly clean with rows of high class shops, restaurants and cafes to the sides  .There were the usual hundreds of people in uniform everywhere, the TOS( Transport Officers) dressed in green leather and the RTJs (Royal Transport Judges) dressed in black leather.   There were the usual gangs of Papian and now Filipino labourers scrubbing the floors under the watchful eye of their TOS and more often RTJ Supervisors ,most of whom were Women as usual in this Nation.   I could see one Filipino labourer being cropped across his arse by a RTJ for everyone in the Station to see .I could see the name on Her badge  as Judge Rita .This was the normal practice in the Nation for MWs(Menial Workers) to be whipped and beaten in public in order to humiliate them  even more. She seemed to be enjoying every minute of it as blood came flowing down his arse .I could not help myself stare at the spectacle!   Angela came up to me.   'Stephen don't stare ,this is quite a normal spectacle in this Nation to see a Judge or a TO beating a MW. He's getting what he deserves .Now come on we're going to the restaurant now!'   I walked outside of the station .There was a huge square with incredibly tall skyscrapers  that seemed even bigger than those in Chicago or New York. Everywhere there were really high class shops and restaurants. All the restaurants seemed to resemble the Ritz ,while all the clothes shops looked like Saville Row. There just was no such thing as a cheap shop or restaurant  in this Nation  at all!    Many people thought it was the loveliest city in the whole world .It was built  on a series of islands that were very  mountainous.   The  Thorskull Mountains actually went straight into the Pacific Ocean so the Mountains went into the City  itself.   It was founded by Norwegian settlers in the 17th century, who called it New Bergen as in many ways it resembled Bergen in Norway,a lovely city where thee mountains also go into the centre of the city .It changed its name to Vikingsborg after independence in 1815. It now had a Metropolitan population of 13 million nearly twice the population of Norway.    In other ways it resembles San Francisco which too is situated on the Pacific Ocean and is built on a series of hills. Like San Francisco it has a beautiful suspension bridge that goes right across the four islands on which the City is built called the Queen Goddess Bridge that is even larger than the Golden Gate bridge.     Also like San Francisco too, it is an incredibly bustling and lively city with a very vibrant nightlife and hundreds of restaurants, bars and dance halls that are open all night .It is a City where  people don't actually start going out until after 8 PM and usually stay up to 6 AM the next morning . Like San Francisco it is very cosmopolitan  and by far the most cosmopolitan city in Norseland, though that is not saying much as in most Norselandic cities it is hard to find a foreign restaurant!     The City now has a large population of Filipinos Thais ,Chinese ,Japanese and Indonesians and there is also a large South American population mainly from Mexico. It has a Papian population of neary three quarters million.This  means that the City has almost every type of cuisine in the world.   It is  also popular with American sailors on shore leave or liberty as it is  called.This is  because Hawaii is  the nearest island where the headquarters of the US Pacific fleet in Pearl Harbor is situated.  At the moment the USS Ronald Reagan was moored in the city harbour. It was enormous and hardly any other ship had room. There were going to be hundreds of sailors in the streets tonight ,all with lots of money to spend and all determined to get roaring drunk. They were likely to go to Angela's favourite bar Rattans that was situated near to the  Luzon Palace.  The Judges and the Norse Women could take care of them easily!    Unlike San Francisco there are no gays as homosexuality is not tolerated though lesbianism is!At night time the streets are positively throbbing as gangs of leather and rubber clad Norse Women prowl  the streets Man Hunting!   Angela stood in front of th others.   'I'm feeling a bit too lazy to walk .I know the restaurant is only 200 meters away but I'm so hungry. Let's get a taxi!'   We all walked across the square to the taxi rank. The taxis all looked so smart and were more like mini buses with 4 or 5 seats in the back.Taxis were all licensed and  mostly belonged  the City itself and could only charge 10 NM or 50p a kilometer.Even the private taxi companies could not charge more than 20 NM a kilometer .If they charged any more they could be reported to the RTJ who would punish them on the spot!   The Taxi Driver's  name was Veronika. She had a large badge on 'I'm Veronika please let me drive you!She was wearing the uniform of the VTS (Vikingsborg Taxi Service) of a tight purple leather jacket hot pants and high heeled calf boots. The Men wore a similar outfit.   She was trained in Gym Kata and was a Stage 3 .This was because late at night She had to drive many loud American sailors and tourists as well as Australian tourists who were known for their drinking habits!   Angela spoke to Veronika.   'Veronika we'd like to go to the Luzon Palace. It's a Filipino restaurant situated in Marastrade.'   'I know it well Would you like me to be our Taxi Driver for the evening ?You can ring me any time!'   'Certainly Veronika After this we'd like to go to Rattans bar!'   We were there in a few minutes given Veronika's brilliant driving skills .Marastrade was situated on a hill with a wonderful view of the harbour and the mountains behind .It was full of foreign restaurants mainly Filipino and Chinese restaurants. The Luzon Palace was actually the largest Filipino restaurant of all. It could accommodate nearly 500 customers.    It was of course spotlessly clean as all restaurants had to be. They we regularly inspected by ROs( Restaurant Officers)  who were employed  by the City Council.The Luzon Palace was inspected by RO Madame Sonia  Bragstad.She was really strict about cleanliness. She had almost the same powers as the Judges  and could crop a restaurant owner and close the restaurant down at once if She saw so much  as a spot of dirt anywhere .Also if a customer saw any dirt He/ She was free to use the crop on the owner or any of the staff as part of the Citizen's rights.    Naturally the owner  Ferdinand was determined to give the best possible service and food possible. There was a rule in restaurants that if the food arrived more than 10 minutes late, the Customer was  entitled to 100 NM (£10 ) off the bill and any later the whole meal would be free. If the owner refused he/she could be reported at once to the RO.   We walked inside and were met by Ferdinand himself .Next to him was RO Sonia. She was a really tall Woman dressed in shiny black leather and high heeled boots.She had short blonde hair and was carrying a crop n Her hand .   Generally ROs would do Inspections in the evenings when the restaurant was busiest. They could move into a restaurant at any time .They also monitored customer service since bad or rude service to Customers was illegal and any waiter who was rude to customers could be reported at once to the ROs or Judges for severe punishment. In  this Nation the Customer was a Queen and King!   'Good evening Ladies I hope You have an enjoyable evening. You can ring me on my mobile if there are any problems .Here is my card .The service and food had better  be excellent for You tonight or else!'     'Yes certainly Ms Bragstad' said Angela 'If the food and service are not up top standard We will certainly report this restaurant!'   We sat down at a table next to a window that overlooked the  harbour with the mountains in the background. Even though it was dark still the view looked so lovely with the lights of the City spread beneath us.   A waiter called Jose came up to us .He was wearing a white shirt a bow tie and black trousers.He was altogether totally submissive.   Angela took the order.   'Right Jose we will start with soup'   . She asked around .  I asked for chicken abalone soup, Angela ordered chicken abalone too.,Peggy  ordered   clam soup .Christine had the same as Her Mother. Helga ordered sopa de ajo ,made with bread slices and eggs and Laura ordered siomai soup with squash made from shrimps.   Helga shouted out to Jose.   ' Bring the soup in 2 minutes or you get it over your face you Filipino areshole!'    There was nothing She enjoyed more than FB! (Filipino Bashing)   When the soup arrived it came on time and was delicious .As we were eating we ordered the main course. We decided to have 10 dishes, 5 meat, 3 seafood and 2 vegetable.   Helga decided to do the ordering and made Jose kneel down in submission as She did so.   'Right  Jose one com pato(  braised duck with rice) ,beef mechado(beef in a sauce), kandingga(lungs and liver in a sauce) ,pork tapa, southern chicken stew ,fish sinigang with guavas ,,estofado clams ,kinagang(shrimps in coconut milk) ,pesang isda(fish in tomato sauce), bamboo shoots with saluyota sauce and dinindeng (shortening with tomatoes). '   'We want the food to arrive in 5 minutes or I will personally take you and the chef and the owner to the back room and crop you senseless! Do you understand? What's more you call Me Madame Helga. Now get out of my bloody sight and get the food.Also we want a large jug of mango juice!Hurry up we're starving!'     Helga was really enjoying herself doing some FB!   'You're quite right to treat these people like that' said Peggy .'They're here to serve us and that's all!'     The food arrived exactly on time as they knew the penalty for bad service or bad food. They were more terrified of Helga than all the other Women!    The food was actually delicious. I had found out that in this Nation the food had to be delicious as the ROs also used food tasters and expert cooks  and they could tell if the food was not up to standard.    We all ate heartily and really enjoyed ourselves. I could not eat that much as I did not have the incredible appetites of these Women !   The bill arrived  afterwards.Angela told Ferdinand the owner  They were satisfied with the meal and they had better keep up the standards or they would be reported to RO Sonia.   Angela then strode out of the restaurant as the owner opened the door to Them ,showing such submission to them!   'Come on 'said Angela. Let's call Veronika for a taxi!'   'LETS GO TO KARAOKE!   Any ideas to Norseland@hotmail.com     Angela   www.miss-spiteful.com   Christine   www.madamechristine.cz   Peggy   www.peggyschoolcraft.com   Helga   www.ms-abby.com   Laura   www.owk.cz/ladies   MADAME LOREEN     Veronika    As above but MADAME VERONIKA     Sonia   www.lady-sonia.com only this Sonia has blonde hair!   Bergen Norway   www.bergen-guide.com
