Welcome to my other world

Posted by Abel on 13 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Other Stuff

Apologies to the client with whom I was working the other day, for any embarrassment I may inadvertently have caused. My lack of knowledge of Microsoft Word means that when I clicked on “File”, ready to “Save” the document we’d been working on together, the menu displayed my four most recent files.

I don’t think she blushed because of “C:\…\Actions”.

“C:\…\The Girl from the Choir” doubtless hinted at my deep-seated interest in Gregorian chant.

She’d have to be one of us to have understood the reference in “C:\…\Rev Jenkins – Lowewood Post 3″.

But I doubt “C:\..\Whippings in the eighteenth century” left much to the imagination.

And why, oh why, had I chosen to plug my laptop into the lovely projector in their Board Room whilst we were editing the document, thus making sure it was displayed on the big screen in the largest letters imaginable?

The Threat of a Ruler

Posted by Haron on 13 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Startles

I read a short piece recently that discussed the fashion for women to go clubbing wearing T-shirts with extremely rude slogans. Things like “Your Bloke’s Had Me”, and other charming messages.

Among others, the writer says -

There are warnings to males, such as “You Better Not Lie - I Carry a Ruler”.

I did a double take, I admit. Is threatening men with spanking really that popular?

It only occurred to me after a minute that they probably meant it completely differently. As in, um, measuring things.

I like my interpretation more.

To the German couple in room 766

Posted by Abel on 12 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Real-Life Spanking

Just because the adjoining door separating our rooms is locked, it doesn’t mean that your room is soundproof.

Yes, I have heard the slapping noises at regular intervals over the past 48 hours. Very clearly.

No, I don’t think you’re clapping something on the TV: it’s too regular, too drawn-out, and the plaintive little feminine yelps after each smack leave little to my experienced imagination.

Yes, young lady: when we emerged from our rooms at the same time and found ourselves waiting for the elevator together, I did think you’d look good in school uniform.

And yes, he is a lot older than you, isn’t he?

No, please don’t stop. I’m sure she deserves it.

And no, I’m sure she didn’t sit at all comfortably at dinner last night. And the restaurant had hard wooden chairs, you say? What a shame…

No, I’m sure you’re not enjoying being spanked. You doesn’t look like one of those perverts

You know, I can recommend just the place in Chinatown if you want to find a nice authentic local implement with which to stripe her - or I have a plentiful supply if you’d care to send her next door to ask politely for a caning.

And don’t worry: I won’t tell a soul.

Coffee, cake and a smack

Posted by Haron on 11 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Startles

This conversation happened between Abel and a very cute barrista at a Starbucks last week.

Abel: Can I have a fork for my cake?

Barrista (nodding at her helper, a sweet-looking girl): Why, hasn’t she given you one?

Abel: No. (To cute helper) Sorry, I didn’t mean to get you into trouble.

Barrista: That’s OK, I’ll give her a smack later.

Abel (returning to my side, whispers): That’s OK, you can give her a smack while I’m watching!

Do you get a feeling Abel is a spanking conversation magnet?

What I did on my holiday

Posted by Abel on 10 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Perverting Reality, Spanking Accessories

Singapore’s a fascinating city, with plenty to keep visitors from indolence. Like, for example, the Chinatown area – a fascinating mix of old and new, local and touristy, temples mixing with mosques interspersed with restaurants and souvenir stalls.

And then there are the local shopping malls, where few western visitors seem to tread. Yet when hunting for hardware shops yesterday, my spanko intuition suggested that – other options having failed – these might be fertile grounds. And so it was, a display of washing up utensils giving way to a far more interesting basket of products.

Do you want the good news or the bad news? OK, dear readers, let’s start by being positive. Urged on by numerous comments on my previous post, I had located the famous local rotan, beloved of Singaporean parents. Even better, they’re far meaner little implements than I’d expected – a little over two feet (60cm) long, very whippy but with sufficient bite to cut home their message.

But bad news, too: they only had three canes on offer, and one of those was cracked (provoking most inappropriate thoughts about daddy breaking the rotan in mid-use, and sending his daughter to the neighbouring store to buy a replacement, before continuing her punishment).

Not to be deterred, I continued to the next mall, the mammoth People’s Place Complex. After much frustrated wandering, I spied the metro station, and was about to give up. And then, there in the distance, glimmering in Xanadu-like splendour, I saw it: the outdoor hardware stall.

Twelve canes, my friends, with their kaleidoscopic plastic handles: reds, yellows, greens, blues*! (I imagined a schoolgirl, squirming uncomfortably at her desk after her caning, as her teacher read the freshly-delivered note to the class: “You are to return to the Headmaster’s office. Apparently he used the wrong-coloured rotan, and needs to correct his error.”). The poor girl on the cash desk positively trembled, putting on her very best behaviour as she wrapped my purchases.

And even more good news! Praise be to the Singaporean finance ministry, for prices have remained at the levels quoted in 1999: the equivalent of two pounds sterling capturing my entire hoard. (More inappropriate thoughts at this point, of a local girl given her weekly pocket money by her father, minus the “50 cents deducted for the cost of the rotan I had to buy”). I wonder how much I’d get on eBay for an “Authentic Singaporean rotan punishment canes, as used for parental discipline”?!

I view it as a matter of public service, really. Think of all the local cuties who’ll be spared the rods that I’m exporting… And think of the painful pleasures awaiting those of you who put in requests…

* No purple rotans, alas, for those who wanted them. I’m wondering whether two canes, one red, one blue, tied together might do the trick?

Bottom-warming after a bottom-warming

Posted by Haron on 09 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Startles

In a recent review of a new car, the journalist expresses his bafflement with the position of the button for the seat-heater:

…the idea of placing seat-heater controls where little fingers can turn them on over and over again as a hilarious joke to see Mummy getting a hot bottom smacks of sadism. Or is that the point…

Yes, I wonder.

Though actually, I’ve always found heated seats really nice for a freshly smacked bottom. I know you’re *supposed* to want to sit on ice, but having my bottom and thighs warmed gently and gradually takes the edge off the sharper sort of pain.

Leaning against the radiator accomplishes the same thing, but I get spanked for that.

The parental rotan

Posted by Abel on 08 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Startles

A mixing blessing with my job is that I end up travelling fairly extensively. That’s good, in that I have a deep-seated wanderlust and love exploring. It’s bad, very bad, in terms of the amount of time it keeps me away from home.

My current trip sees me in Singapore thanks to a customer who booked flights and hotels for me, then cancelled the event I was supposed to be running. As the travel was non-refundable, it seemed rather a shame to waste it!

I’ve already had one of the biggest startles ever, on the way in from the airport yesterday morning. The breakfast presenters were discussing a news item about some teenagers who’d misbehaved. “Last time they were naughty, they were locked in their bedrooms”, commented the female half of the presenting duo - somewhat to my horror. She continued:

“Do you think it’s now time for the rotan? It’s still the school holidays, so call us. How do your parents punish you?”

Then, she turned to her co-presenter, asking, “Did you used to get the rotan when you were growing up?”

He didn’t, and quickly played the next song rather than asking her the same question. Drat! And the cab arrived at my hotel before the phone-in began :-(

The rotan - the local name for the cane - still appears to be in surprisingly wide use here for parental discipline. According to one report from the Singapore Sunday Times, hardware stores are the place I need to head while I’m here for my souvenir hunting:

Cane facts

COST: 50 cents, made in China and guaranteed to last a lifetime.

WHERE TO BUY: At neighbourhood shops selling household items. Usually found stacked with the brooms and mops on sale or hanging, tied together, from the ceiling of the shop.

NEW LOOK: Rotans today have a plastic hook at the end, which comes in a variety of colours.

At that price, pennies per cane in UK currency (even if the report is a few years old), I may have to purchase a bundle. (And if there’s anyone reading in Singapore, do please recommend a suitable shop)!

The story behind a spanking drawing

Posted by Haron on 07 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: In the Neighbourhood

For the most part, we make a point of not posting too many spanking pictures: this blog is about expressing ourselves with words, through words.

Then again, sometimes you just have to. Abel has come across a blog in German by Strenger Lehrer,* who posts lots of spanking drawings.** Now, I find drawings even more attractive than photos (and I love spanking photos), so I had a good dig-around in his archives.

…I remember, when I was at school, we regularly had this type of homework where we were given a picture, and had to write a story based on it. What is happening here? What has happened before? Why are these people acting the way they are in the picture?

I suggest a similar excercise. Here’s a picture:

A spanking drawing of a girl stripping for her punishment in front of a group of horrified onlookers

What do you think is going on? For one thing, is this a school? I think it is, but it might be a governess punishing her charge with the help of a butler, or somebody.

What do you think the girl has done? Do you reckon all the other girls are here to watch, or are they waiting for their turn on the whipping bench?

I leave it to your imagination, folks.

Horsing around

Posted by Abel on 06 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Perverting Reality, Real-Life Spanking

I really don’t understand young people today. There we were, at a perfectly respectable event over the recent Bank Holiday weekend, when the group of teenage girls next to us in the crowd of 50,000 started misbehaving in the most disgraceful way.

Their game involved one girl being hoisted onto the bent-over back of another, then held tight whilst the remaining young ladies in the group spanked her backside. Hard. They then swapped, ensuring each of their jean-clad bottoms ended up being soundly swatted in turn. Their shrieks filled the air.

Shameful conduct. I was so taken aback that I had to watch carefully, to take in the horrifying scene in full so that I could report back to you. What is the world coming too?

Sneaking a Spanking at the In-laws’

Posted by Haron on 05 Sep 2007 | Tagged as: Real-Life Spanking

Abel and I live in the sort of conditions that any spanking enthusiast would call priviledged: we have the house to ourselves, its walls are thick, the neighbours are quite deaf, and there is space enough to swing a cane in pretty much every room.*

From time to time, however, we go to visit our respective parents.

This is where we get a glimpse of what other, less fortunate spankos with big families have to deal with. Zero privacy, other than in our bedroom; the walls are made out of paper,** and it’s easier to forget about real spanking altogether for a few days, than to attempt a little bit of play.

Except we can’t forget about spanking, or limit ourselves with whispering stories to each other. I mean, I guess we could, but we refuse to be limited by the circumstances.

Our recent parental home adventure was a couple of weeks ago in Abel’s parents’ house.

It was all rather spontaneous. One morning, before everybody else woke up, I was lying on the bed reading. Bottom-up, as one does; still dressed for bed in my knickers and his shirt.

Abel was dealing with his email. He must have read something exciting,*** because he walked over to me and landed a big ol’ swat on my behind.

“Take those knickers down,” he said.

“Oh?” I said. “We’re, um, not alone?”

“Don’t care,” he said. Boy, that email must have been really good.

I wriggled my knickers down, and waited to find out what he would use. A hand-spanking was out of question: the naked-skin-slapping-naked-skin noise is quite loud, even if you don’t know what exactly it is. We hadn’t packed any canes. The nearest birch tree was way out of reach. As far as I was concerned, he was stuck.

Not so, it appeared. He picked up the electric cord from our camera, doubled it up, and told me to brace myself.

Now, headspace-wise, electric cords don’t do anything for me; they don’t feature on my fantasy horizons. However, when we’re talking about pure physical side of spanking, I don’t mind what an implement is, as long as it produces the right sensation.

Or, should I say, the wrong sensation: the infernal burning, the branding pain, the flaming cuts… It was quite horrid. And, of course, I had to stay absolutely quiet throughout the ordeal: we didn’t want people to come running to my rescue, did we?

Although Abel normally insists that I stay as still as possible for my whipping, we had to get rid of the rule here: I can be either still or quiet, but not both.**** If I couldn’t yell, I had to wriggle, a lot. I enjoyed the freedom, though it took me a lot not to howl at a couple of particularly evil cuts.

The stripes afterwards were quite pretty, and I squirmed all the way through breakfast, but there was nothing to show for it only a couple of hours later. Other than our big grins, I suppose.

———————————-
* Not very high, mind you. It’s not a very big house.
** In my parents’ place you can hear the neighbour three floors up praciting her piano. Every note.
*** Which one of you correspondents has been getting me smacked? Hmm?
**** And frequently, neither.
