Tool firm's risque order
A tool firm has tied up a deal with a firm of fetish specialists to supply locks for its chastity belts.

Operational Resources, based in Aldridge, West Midlands, is providing 200 miniature combination locks for a new electric pink and blue range of the saucy garments.

The firm was approached by adult goods suppliers, Lovelocks, of Gravesend in Kent, who were looking for locks small enough to secure the chastity belts' 3mm fasteners.

Operational Resources is more used to providing security solutions for engineers.

Steve Goldsworthy, general manager at the tool firm, said the devices will not be easy to unlock.

"There are over 5,000 number codes on the locks, so we don't think anyone will be getting these belts off in a hurry."
