Caning on the Edgware Road

BBC radio played straight into my hands in its morning broadcasts yesterday. I’d already started fantasising when they reported that store managers are outraged at the lenient sentences being doled out to shoplifters: one commented that thieves deserved “the ultimate sanction”.

Later, a government spokesperson, commenting on the same story, spoke of the need for “swift and effective justice.”

Strange how one’s mind works: it’s not any old store that I pictured, with the young woman bent over the flogging block, wrists tied, for a very public meeting with the rattan. No, it was specifically the branch of Woolworth’s in London’s Edgware Road, the thrashing taking place just inside the front windows! (I’ve not even been there for a year or more: strange how the mind works).

A small crowd had gathered: they gasped as her buttocks were bared, and winced collectively as the strokes fell. No gentle spanking, this: full-bodied blows, red stripes clearly visible for all to see…. Swift and effective justice, indeed.

And then the sobbing offender was untied, and was free to go, pushing her way tearfully through the crowds and out onto the street.

P.S. Will the girl who got two very hard smacks from her boyfriend by the chocolate stand before the Keane gig in Newcastle Arena yesterday please delurk?

    Hey, that was me.

    Oh wait. Yesterday. No, we haven’t been to Newcastle since last winter. :-(

    *Yesterday’s* hard smacks were delivered in Santa Monica.

    I think it’s very cruel to be smacked for needing chocolate 😉

    How hot though! Do you know what she’d done to deserve them??

    I think she was just being cute and spankable. She had an awesome round bum.

    This isn’t exactly on-topic but I had to share it with you:

    A Indian man called into a talk-back show this morning and said he once sat next to Noel Coward on a Qantas flight from Australia to Bombay. He said that Coward told him that Qantas was short for ‘Queers and Nice Types Arrive Safely’. BOAC stood for ‘Bend Over Again Christina’.

    The Indian said, “He was quite the naughty fellow that Coward!! LOL

    “Quite A Nice Tawsing And Spanking” sounds better.

    Sounds like Ralph Fiennes would have enjoyed flying BOAC, if the media reports of his recent exploits on Virgin are to be believed…

    Yes indeed. Well done! All reports suggest that Ralph Fiennes is quite the naughty fellow too. In trouble again for middle of the night exploits in the hotel pool with some naked lovelies, I’m told.

    Well if he keeps up the exploits of the last couple of weeks, it may be she will have to join the line…….
