Watch toe-curling moment man awkwardly chats about pizza at swinger party… as wife strips off for romp with stranger
THIS is the toe-curling moment a man awkwardly chatted about pizza at a swingers party - while his wife stripped off for a romp with a stranger. This week's episode of Open House: The Greatest Sex Experiment sees hairdresser Tanya, 35, and window cleaner Ashley, 31, from Leeds head to the retreat. 3 The couple opened their relationship up to include other people five years ago, but so far, they have only ever explored new lovers together in the same room. Now, they want to take things further by going solo to find exciting new connections. After initial introductions to the other guests, the couple attend a masquerade party, and Tanya immediately catches the eye of a number of men and women. Meanwhile Ashley is a lot more nervous of the situation, and struggles to make small talk with the glamorous ladies around him. As time goes on, Tanya settles on a handsome guest called Gage, who is there with his wife Olivia. They head off to the bedroom and embark on a steamy romp, with the cameras picking up a number of moments as they get intimate. But seconds after things reach a climax between Tanya and Gage, Ashley is seen asking Olivia: "Do you like pineapple pizza?" The pair were sitting in a yurt, and Olivia replies she didn't like the fruit on her pizza, but Ashley says: "[I have] pineapple and jalepeno, the two opposites." The awkward conversation about pizza toppings continues, before Olivia takes control of the situation and says: "Right shall we get this awkwardness out of the way because this is making me cringey!" The pair start to strip off, although Ashley struggles with the small buttons on his tuxedo shirt. EXCL Watch awkward moment man stops wild orgy with three women after getting stage fright on Open House The Great Sex Experiment In the end, he overcomes his awkwardness and ends up romping with Olivia in the yurt, all thoughts of pizza long gone. He then reunites with Tanya back at their room, with the couple happy to have achieved their aim of going solo. The eyebrow-raising Channel 4 series has already seen a man stop an orgy after getting stage fright, and another husband wipe away tears after watching his partner sleep with another woman. Open House: The Great Sex Experiment airs Friday, June 27 at 10pm on Channel 4. 3

One-time open homes for Brisbane's luxury new builds
Anyone wanting to take a peek inside two of Brisbane's most luxurious new builds will have their one chance this Saturday. 'Palma by Graya' in Ascot and 'Mosman' in Bulimba have been listed for sale and each will have just a single, one-hour inspection on Saturday, June 14, after racking up thousands of views online. 'Palma' will be open from 11.15am on Saturday, while 'Mosman' will be open from 1pm. Both properties were designed by architect Tim Stewart with 'Mosman' developed by Michael and Natalie Ajaje of FBI Interiors constructed by McBryde Builders, while 'Palma' was a collaboration between Graya and Purdy Developments. On the market through Heath Williams of Place New Farm, 'Palma' is built into a sloping block and has 694 sqm of living spread across three levels with five bedrooms, a six-car garage, a wine cellar and city views. 'Mosman' is for sale through Sarah Hackett of Place New Farm and has five bedrooms, a wine cellar with custom roulette table, a yoga studio and an eight-car garage with Ferrari mural. Ms Hackett said unusually, the Bulimba home was being sold not only turnkey but also completely furnished. 'Someone is going to save years of their life and most likely money by buying this home,' she said. 'At this price point, the buyers are usually working mums and dads who are time poor. 'Not only has the hard work already been done (at 'Mosman'), but they have ticked every box and got it just right.' Ms Hackett said Saturday's open home was sure to draw interest from anyone wanting to see behind the striking facade of 'Mosman'. 'It's hard to not have a reaction when you go through this home,' she said. 'The ceiling heights are enormous, the staircase was craned in and finished in venetian plaster, the master bedroom is as big as an apartment we're selling in New Farm, and the roulette table in the wine cellar is Casino-grade.' 'Mosman' owner and developer, Michael Ajaje said he and his wife set out to create the ultimate family entertainer with a beach club vibe after several other successful builds. 'We took the best of what we've learnt and seen over the years and put everything into this home,' he said. The couple, who own FBI Interiors, built and decorated the property like it was their forever home. 'We wanted to show the locals, our customers and the people of Brisbane what can be achieved,' Mr Ajaje said 'This is the biggest and best we've done so far.' Mr Ajaje said his favourite part of the home was the open plan kitchen and living space with curved staircase and seven arch windows, while the master suite was also a showstopper. 'The master walk-in is like a high end Prada shop with beautiful glass cabinetry … and the concrete bathtub and curved wall in the ensuite is definitely the star of the bathroom,' he said. 'We used lots of venetian plaster and microcement to create a European style that feels very suited to Queensland.' 'Palma' marketing agent, Mr Williams said this weekend's open home was the first time for him at this price point. 'I sold 'Larc by Graya', which was strictly by appointment for pre-approved buyers as it was a private residence, and we had just four groups through,' he said. '('Palma') is one of those rare opportunities where a brand new build of this calibre has come to the market. 'So, we negotiated one open home and the rest by appointment only.' Mr Williams said an in-person inspection would allow people to appreciate the privacy, position and northerly aspect of the home, as well as the scale and balance of the interiors. 'There has been a lot of intention put into making the floorplan work,' he said. 'The joinery in the kitchen goes up 3m and that void, though it could have been a negative, it is balanced quiet perfectly, and the sculptural staircase isn't overpowering. 'This could be a big family home but also could be a downsizer home.' Craig Purdy of Purdy Developments said Ascot property was a nod to the Mallorca capital of Palma. 'The topography on the island leans toward luxury residences built into the side of the hills, which are also elevated to provide stunning views,' Mr Purdy said. Like the luxury home of Mallorca, 'Palma' was designed to make use of its elevated city position. 'It is always our preference to have basements at street level in order to have the living levels elevated to capture summer breezes and the sun in winter,' Mr Purdy said. Mr Purdy said visitors to the open home should take time to admire the curved staircase and the use of robust materials featured throughout the home. 'The staircase a piece of art in its own right,' he said. 'This is the first time we've done a curved staircase across three levels.' Mr Purdy said the team behind 'Palma' was proud to show the finished product not only to the community, but to the construction industry. 'Often the engineers, the town planners, the certifiers, they work on projects and never get to see them when they're finished, yet they're so intrinsic to building the building,' he said. Mr Purdy said the open home was also an opportunity for the public to find inspiration for their own homes. 'In our early days that's what my wife and I did,' he said. 'We went to see products we aspired to, and worked out how to put that into our residence. 'It might an element in the kitchen or in the butler's pantry or a design element in the ensuite – you can capture those and find a way to build that within your budget.' 'Palma' at 29 Towers St, Ascot, will be open for an hour from 11.15am on Saturday, June 14 'Mosman' at 29 Henderson St, Bulimba, will be open from 1pm on Saturday, June 14.

Eight restored George Town buildings to open for public tours during July heritage celebrations
GEORGE TOWN, June 11 — Eight heritage buildings in George Town will open its doors to the public during next month's George Town Heritage Celebrations. There will also be community volunteers to guide visitors during these open house sessions to explain the various aspects of the buildings and their history. George Town World Heritage Incorporated (GTWHI) general manager Ang Ming Chee said the eight buildings were recently restored using funds from the repair incentive grant from the federal government. 'A lot of heritage buildings benefited from this grant so this open house is a pilot programme to open the doors of these heritage buildings for the public to experience the restored buildings,' she told reporters during a press conference with tourism and creative economy state exco Wong Hon Wai to announce the George Town Heritage Celebrations on July 5 to 7. She said they hoped to come up with a more sustainable way of getting income to support the local communities and the restoration of heritage buildings in the city. 'We hope that the public will visit these open houses and give us their feedback,' she said. The eight heritage buildings that will open its doors to visitors during that long weekend next month are GTWHI building at Lebuh Acheh, Kwangtung and Tengchow Association, Makam Dato Koyah, Masjid Melayu Lebuh Acheh, Nam Hooi Wooi Koon, St. George's Church, Sun Wui Wui Koon and Thai Pak Koong (Ng Suk) Temple. Meanwhile, the three-day celebrations will also feature 23 cultural workshops, six interactive performances and a George Town Heritage 5km Walk for families. The workshops will offer immersive and hands-on experience in traditional crafts, food preparation and languages. Wong said this year marked the 17th year since the joint inscription of George Town and Melaka as Unesco world heritage sites. He said the heritage celebrations is now shifting towards storytelling as a key focus this year to nurture more community narratives. 'It's not just about preserving walls; it's about letting those walls speak,' he said. He reiterated the state government's commitment to push cultural tourism as a pillar of Penang's creative economy. More details on the heritage celebrations are available here.
