By remarkable coincidence a couple of days ago, on the same morning I’d been inspired by fantasies of a girl being caned before school, Pandora posted an incredibly hot account along similar lines.

My girl was merely getting one caning, mind; hers was up for 12 of the best from every morning for a week, before classes. Were I the Headmaster in Pandora’s account, mind, I’d vary the punishment routine ever so slightly – the girl would report to me immediately on waking, in her dressing gown and pyjamas. The alarm call would be sounded at 7.15 a.m.; woe betide her were she to appear in my study a moment after 7.20.
