Guide to this blog

The Blogroll is now in three parts. The main part is arranged according to the date the blog was last updated with the most recent first. Many blogs use the BDSMLR platform which does not include date information; they are in a separate Blogroll arranged alphabetically but I check from time to time and remove any that have been permanently closed. The final part is a list of interesting Twitter feeds - again in alphabetical order.

Any challengers for the title?

Britain's most valuable bum

A Lancashire grandfather has his buttocks insured for £1 million. Graham Butterfield is the official bed bouncer for Silentnight in Barnoldswick, reports the Daily Mirror. He said: "It may sound silly but my bottom is not like the normal bottom. I have increased sensitivity around the buttock area and can feel the difference in the materials used in beds. I am very proud to be the owner of a £1million backside. I want to make it clear that my bottom's super-powers are quite natural. I have no need of a special care regime."

Graham's duties at Silentnight in Barnoldswick, Lancs, involve bouncing on beds and giving feedback on softness, textures and fillings. His reports help decide which beds go on the market. He said: "It makes it all worthwhile being the butt of people's jokes - they are only jealous of my job."
Steven Simpson, manager at Silentnight, said: "The policy is worth every penny."

Yeah I'm jealous of his job too! LOL

But I would imagine his bottom's "super powers" would make spanking even more uncomfortable for him - you know, if he were of our persuasion. Then again, maybe the sensitivity makes him well-suited to getting spanked. Indeed, it might even help him with his bed bouncing job -- a bruised behind, I would think, would be particularly sensitive.
