“The bedbound business of knots”

Adam Thirlwell’s “Politics” was one of the more interesting debut novels of recent years. I read his much-acclaimed follow-up, “The Escape”, on holiday recently, and it struck me an odd book: a slightly-all-over-the-place structure populated by somewhat-unbelievable characters, set in a clichéd central European spa town.
There are flashes of brilliance in the writing, […]

Chocolate wins

Abel is on a self-imposed detox* that includes missing out on chocolate and caffeine. He can be strong of will when he needs to, and not succumb to temptation, but this doesn’t mean he won’t also whine about it.
On Friday evening he was cooking dinner, which smelled delicious, but he was bitterly complaining about how […]

The temple whippings

One of the nicer features of our Cypriot resort was the cave area at the end of one of the pools. (Yes, ‘cave’, for those perverts amongst you who just instinctively read that as the ‘cane area’). Swimming through the stone arches, one found oneself in a sheltered area, with waterfalls, ledges on which to […]

Ferule

I have lately been obsessed with LibraryThing, which is an online card catalog service for those of us with personal libraries. It links to Amazon and the Library of Congress for its source data, and I have to confess I am obsessed. It will take me a l…

Corporal punishment for military cadets

Here’s an interesting memoir from a man who served as a Regimental Boy soldier of the Royal Corps of Signals in the 1950s, from the age of 15. He seems awfully fond of abbreviations, which I’ve deciphered where possible, but I may well be wrong on what some of them mean.
All Boy soldiers were of […]

Burning down the house

“Hi. Might you be able to send an iron and ironing board up to my room?”
It didn’t seem an unreasonable request for me to make at the posh resort in which we’ve been staying on holiday out in Cyprus. But clearly I was expecting far too much:
“No, sir. We don’t let people have irons in […]

The right kind of school skirt

In my dream I was a girl preparing to go to boarding school for the first time. Mother took me to a specialist uniform shop, where all the essentials, from socks to hair ribbons, could be bought, plus a trunk to store all of this.
A kindly shop assistant helped me choose a skirt in a […]

Potpourri II

OK, so after nearly four years of crisp, single purpose posts, I’ve adopted a rambling, conversational tone. Maybe it’s hormones. I have no idea.Anyhow, our vacation a couple of weeks ago was great. We had a lot of fun going to the theater, enjoying…

making a sound

Graham wrote recently about pride and stoicism:Tears, wails, wriggling: These are the classic elements of spanking fantasies. It’s all part of the wretched humiliating fun. No one writes a story about a girl who was spanked, and lay there quietly, th…

The Tesco Value fetish range?

I just love getting emails like this a couple of weeks back, from Lazarina:
I very much enjoy your blog, and not having one of my own, I wonder if readers would be interested to know that larger Tesco ‘extra’ stores are now selling riding crops for £5? My boyfriend and I were in the ‘outdoor […]

It’s raining spanks and there’s another type of shower on the way!

It seems I’m not the only one who ended the spanking drought lately; Angelbrat got a much awaited spanking of her own last week! Woo-hoot! Looks like things are looking up for my good friend who has a lot going on in her life right now. In case you hadn’t heard yet, […]
