Favourite for January

Happy New Year!

If the girl to be caned is able to touch her toes, it would almost always be my preferred position.  In this instance, she needs to straighten her legs just a little but I'm sure Miss Brown (of Strictly Miss Brown) will make sure that she does that before the actual caning commences.  If the girl doesn't comply on request, a good hard smack across the backs of her thighs should focus her mind.

Happy Christmas!

Good hidings we bring
To you and your kin
We wish you a sizzling Christmas
And a tingling red rear!

Those Tumblr links

Well the Tumblr situation seems to have largely stabilised although it's not in a happy place.  I've randomly checked a few of the old links in my former blogroll and many have simply vanished.  A few have survived with some of the images removed. A couple of the more vanilla ones seem to be unscathed.  Over this coming weekend I'll trawl through them all - the survivors will move to the new blogroll and then the old blogroll will be deleted for ever. Sad.

What's going on?

Sunday 16th update

So now I have two blogrolls.

The NEW blogroll contains blogs not hosted on Tumblr including those that have migrated from Tumblr to elsewhere (plus just a couple on Tumblr that might escape the new regime).  Blogs on the NEW blogroll are generally being removed from my old blogroll, so the old one (below the NEW one) is for those that appear to still be on Tumblr with the deadline for removal of NSFW content just about upon us.  Quite a few old Tumblr blogs have already been deleted by their owners and I've tried to remove those from the old blogroll. I'm not sure what happens next.

Some people have posted on their Tumblr sites the address for their new home - after the 17th I don't know if Tumblr will allow that (since it points to NSFW content) - if not then everything in my old blogroll will effectively become empty or boring.  I've left them for now in the hope that they do find a new home and can point the way to it.

The NEW blogroll is listed alphabetically.  The most popular destination for many Tumblr refugees seems to be BDSMLR and currently that doesn't seem to provide an RSS feed to show updates.  I didn't want all the BDSMLR sites to end up down the bottom of the list just because we won't know when they've updated but I am showing the date of last update where it is known.  If BDSMLR switches on an RSS feed at some time I'll revert to a chronological listing then.

Also, I've started a list of Twitter sites.  It's early days - most of the twits I follow on there haven't even been added as yet but I'll get there - it's all just taking a lot of time.

The lights are going out all over Tumblr - who will be next?

Video of the year 2018

While we still have a site we can blog on, I thought I should give you my choice for video of the year.  Last year I couldn't find a really stand-out one to give this nomination to but I recently came across this example and knew immediately it would be my choice this time around.

There are, of course, hundreds of video clips out there of "fun" spankings.  Many of the people involved probably have no fetish interests at all or none that they're aware of - maybe some of them will go on to develop a fetish interest later.  The largest number are probably birthday related  and then there's ones in various pubs (mainly Hofbräuhaus) or eating establishments (mainly Heart Attack Grill).  There are the ones relating to a dubious Czech Easter tradition, a few that are rather hard to fathom and there are ones that appear to be dares of some kind.

I think this one fits the latter category.  An attractive young lady appears to agree to take a paddle swat as some sort of dare in return for a ticket for something.  Quite a few "fun spanking" videos are rather gentle which isn't really that much fun for the viewer. When they're not - and quite often with ones at birthdays where several people are giving a whack each, it's only a matter of time before someone gives a really serious hard whack - the recipient seems surprised and unhappy to discover that spankings hurt.  This girl takes a pretty hard swat and seems to process it really well.  And then she takes another...

Enjoy!

Tumblr R.I.P.

Heaven knows I've not been the greatest fan of Tumblr and the Tumblr community because it seems to foster mindless reblogging without creativity or thoughtful content.  Nevertheless, I regret their decision to block all "adult" content.  Google tried the same thing with Blogger a while back but quickly backed down because so many people argued how important it was for them to be able to express their identity.  I doubt that Tumblr will back down because, as I've said, it doesn't really have the same thoughtful content that many Blogger sites promote.  I hope that the Tumblr users don't all transfer to Blogger unless they're ready to embrace the different ethos.  However I hope they do find a new home somewhere.  Over the next few weeks my Blogroll seems likely to get considerably shorter.

Favourite for December

Obviously not the highest quality of images and just in B&W but I really like this picture for it's understatement.  The teacher is clearly lecturing the two miscreants at some length.  The longer it goes on, the more apprehensive they must be getting as it seems ever more serious.  Maybe he'll get one or both of them to start crying before he even punishes them.  It's probably no coincidence that their hands are resting on their bottoms as the realisation grows that they're both going to have those bottoms warmed up considerably in a few moments time.  A totally believable scene that probably happened hundreds of times in schools.

At this time of year I like to also feature a favourite video of the year - last year I couldn't decide on one that seemed appropriate but I've got a corker lined up this time around - coming up in a few days time...!

Does this get any reaction?

Regular visitors to this blog will know that I am mainly interested in scenes with female subs so this is a bit out on a limb.

However, given the reputation that Catholic schools (and especially the Christian Brothers) had in the UK, Ireland and elsewhere, I'd like to bet there are some people who are going to be squirming a little bit at this picture which probably brings back some very unhappy memories for some guys of a certain age.  There's a tremendous tension in the scene.

Not sure where it originates from but I'm guessing a  movie - any ideas?

Love Our Lurkers Day 2018

For the thirteenth time, it's Love Our Lurkers day - and as is now the custom it last for two days to accommodate time zone differences!  The  tradition was started by Bonnie - if you are one of the hundreds who read blogs like mine and never dare to comment, this is your chance.  I know from the stats that many more people check by than ever comment - those that do (primarily Old Tom and Targetarear) are always welcome but actually if it wasn't for all the other visitors who never comment I'd have given up long ago.  Stay anonymous by all means but it would be lovely if you just said Hi!

Favourite for November

This is, you probably never realised, an auspicious post.  This is my 100th favourite for the month.  As such the choice of image was quite important and I've decided to go back to a photo story from Janus 62 that I've featured before.

Actually I featured one image as a favourite and then shortly afterwards posted all the images from that particular story in low-res. It was, to me, one of the most credible school canings ever in Janus and the girl was fantastic.  Possibly my only problem with it was that she looked so sweet and innocent that I couldn't really believe she would have exhibited behaviour bad enough to warrant the caning she got.   Her immediate reactions were excellent and even the way she practically ran out of the office when told to leave looked brilliant.  So, for one more time, here is Marjorie Jenkins.
