GOOD GIRL!

“I’m ready for you now!” he calls out. She pulls the heavy curtain to one side to reveal a play space separate from the main dungeon that she hasn’t been in before. The lights have been turned off, but 6 small candles he has placed on the floor throw their flickering warmth over the leather… Read More »

NAKED (sinful sunday)

Big, hairy man standing in the shower. I tried to take it with the shower running, but water was getting everywhere and my phone slipped off it’s perch on top of the toilet. Fortunately it landed on the floor and not in the pan! The things we do for Sunful Sunday!

THE BARBERSHOP

There were only two of us in the barbershop for my first post-lockdown haircut; me and the young Turkish haircutter. I guess the immediate post lockdown rush had subsided and it was a mid-week morning.

REPAIR WORK (sinful sunday)

I had to say goodbye to my little brother this week, his funeral delayed by administrative snarl-ups that I won’t go into here. It wasn’t an easy thing to do as I had a very special relationship with him, strengthened when he became the only family member with whom I have shared Bibulous, this blog… Read More »

AND SO I TOOK A LEFT….

I changed my walk this morning. I’d planned to walk through the water meadows; it’s a beautiful path first thing in the morning, all reeds and tall grasses, criss-crossed with streams and waterways.

I touched on the subject in our last session and, understanding the respect and affection within which I hold Mistress Elita, she had been OK with… Read More »

TAKING DOWN THE BIG GAME (part 2)

Part 1 of this story is here. “What the actual fuck am I doing here?” I asked myself as I looked round the table in the private card room behind the main poker area in the Aria Casino. I took my seven and a half stacks of $100 chips (20 chips in each stack) out… Read More »

TAKING DOWN THE BIG GAME (part 1)

I realise that, at a time when so many are struggling and losing their jobs, a story of winning large amounts of money merely by playing a game, might seem out of tune with the times. However I enjoyed recollecting different times, times of travel and holidays and sunshine. I enjoyed reliving these remarkable few… Read More »

STRONG WOMEN

I wrote this a while ago but sat on it. I decided National Women’s Day might be a time to give it an edit and post it.  Back in the days when my soon-to-be-ex wife was actively antagonistic towards me, fortunately long passed, one of her repeated barbs was: “You have a problem with strong… Read More »
