The 15th Anniversary Of This Blog

Fifteen years!! That’s insane!! Never did I imagine that my blog would last so long, just one of a handful of spanking blogs that have lasted this length of time.

I’m not going to lie, at one point this year I honestly thought that this would be the last year of this spanking blog, I was so completely done with it all. However, this post is going to be a positive one, there are no regrets on my end whatsoever. In fact I am thankful that things played out the way that they did, I’m glad that I got to witness what I saw.

Things changed dramatically for me in regards to my online presence this year, I deleted both of my Twitter and Fetlife accounts completely, which changed my interaction level online a lot. It took me a while to get over the Twitter deletion because I interacted with a lot of people on there, but the level of anger that burned inside of me made the decision to leave an easy one, even if I didn’t perhaps want to do so. Nothing productive would have ever come from keeping my Twitter account active, none. In fact quite to the contrary, I would have ended up saying a few home truths that I would have really regretted saying. I’m better than that, I would never go out of my way to intentionally cause harm towards another person. That’s not the type of person that I am and I’m really happy that behavior is not a part of my character.

That’s all in the past now though, that door has been permanently shut and it will never, ever be opened again.

So my interaction in the spanking community now is done solely through this blog, that’s it, that’s my only connection to the spanking portal. There are a handful of people on Facebook who are spanking friends with whom I have maintained contact with for many years. And with the clear exception of RAVEN who has maintained her level of unbridled sass for 17 plus years, lol, all of my other spanking friends on Facebook are pretty much vanilla friends by now who I originally met in the spanking community. In fact now that I think about it, I met Raven at the very first spanking party that I attended back in 2004, so she is probably the oldest scene friend that I currently have in regards to actually meeting them in person. There are a couple of others on Facebook who I have known for longer, but I didn’t meet them in person until a few years later.

Obviously there are a few people who I interact with on this blog, and I also have a handful of people who I speak with via email. All in all though, I have limited contact with the active scene anymore. I haven’t even spoken to Pixie for such a long time now, but that happens, people grow and continue on in the direction that they are heading. There is nothing but positive thoughts and memories however, as there is with 99% of the people that I meet.

I’m not totally done yet, there are still a few more years left in the old war horse ๐Ÿ™‚ It is funny to think though that everything has come full circle. Having been an active player for 20 years, I am now back to square one. At 58 years of age my life is more mellow now. Whereas at one point of my life spanking was the be all and end all of my existence, that has now been replaced by travelling. I had my time and I have no regrets at all, but it is time for me to move on from spanking parties and the active lifestyle. I don’t know how much time I have left on this earth, but however long it is I want to spend that time experiencing different cultures from around the world.

The most important thing to me, and the one that makes me the happiest, is some of the amazing people that I have met over the years and some of the scenes that I have taken part in. It is somewhat rude to single people out but I have been truly blessed. I mean damn, I spanked PIXIE underneath the Empire State Building, and I spanked AUDREY KNIGHT in a bar on a vanilla night out. That’s fairytale stuff right there ๐Ÿ™‚ And I have to mention ELLEE of course, she will probably never know just how important to me some of the scenes that we did were. Every scene idea that I ever wanted to do on a personal level, ellee was kind enough to provide them, whether they were scripted or spontaneous. I will always have very fond memories of those spanking scenes, and very fond memories of ellee herself. I literally reached the mountain top, there was no higher place to go.

It’s about time that I slapped a spanking pic into this post, after all I separated half a dozen to post today. The first one I have a feeling is a bucket list spanking for many people, regardless of what spanking roles you prefer. A spanking (or paddling in this case) from a fully clothed person given to one wearing nothing but pajamas. If you look in the background, there seems to be an awful lot of people in their pajamas as well, and the woman doing the paddling already has a two handed swing going ๐Ÿ˜‰

So what is in the future for me?

Like I said, travelling is the number one item for me nowadays. Of course at the moment nobody can really go anywhere, but as soon as we are able to then I have a list of places that I want to go. In fact as I am typing this I am thinking about Japan. Even though I have been there twice now and I didn’t expect to go back for another ten years or more, I also heard today that the band that I love over there have decided to disband at the end of 2022. So now it is back on my list because I would love to see them one final time.

It may sound silly to you all, in fact it probably sounds silly to me, but I feel like I have a deep connection to that band on a spiritual level. When my brother died in 2018 they kept me going. During my worst times I was able to hang on to the fact that I had something to look forward to, that I had booked a trip to Japan at the end of 2018 and I was going to see them perform live. It kept me going, it kept me wanting to carry on.

I’m not disappointed that they have decided to call it quits, I mean for the most part I am sure that several of the members will continue doing solo projects. Would I like to see them one more time? Yeah, I definitely would. They were/are a very unique experience, weird, but in the best way. And like myself in the spanking community, they have decided that their time has run its course.

Picture #2:

Now while they seem to be much older, I can’t but envision a roleplay taking place here. I just have this vision of the butt being swatted in public, knowing that as soon as that door is closed then things are going to escalate rather quickly. Alright, everyone is laughing, but it is fun to have an imagination.

As for spanking, well look, I’m not completely done yet. While I may have scaled back dramatically, there are still things that I want to do. For my swansong I had this idea in mind to make one final film. It was this great scene idea that I had in mind where I would inadequately spank two girls (reason unknown as of yet) and then their guardian, Dana Specht, would give them the full Monty once she found out what they had done. At this point in time though, mostly because I will no longer be attending spanking parties, I very much doubt if my path will cross with Dana’s anymore.

It might take a few years, but I do envision renting a beach house in Jersey somewhere down the line and finally making that last film.

Of course there will still be some local play, and of course I do still have friendships around the country that may involve some one on one play every now and then. But I guess overall you can say that I am semi retired ๐Ÿ˜‰

In regard to the blog? Well, I’m still here!! Moving forward I expect that the future years will be just like this past year has been. A bit scaled back but updated often. There is still a mammoth plethora of unseen spanking pics that I have yet to share that will likely keep me going for at least 5 more years. When the blog reaches it 20th anniversary I will be 63 years old, maybe that will be the time that I decided to call it a day once and for all ๐Ÿ™‚

Anyway, a Merry Christmas to you all, and if you don’t celebrate Christmas then a happy holiday season to you. Be nice to each other and perhaps as a New Year’s resolution ask yourself this “How can I be a better person”? We all control how we act and how we want others to remember us, being kind to others is never a weakness.

On January the 1st I will post my annual top ten list, and then a couple of days later I will post the annual list of most read stories in the previous calendar year. I will also look to write and post part 4 of the “Mother Spanks” series. The most popular request is for the mother to spank the boyfriend, but as that is a genre that I have barely ever written about, it might take me a little bit longer to post a worthwhile chapter in that series. Bye for now guys, I hope that you all have a wonderful holiday.

  2. Such great finds, Richard! I mean, imagine coming across a bare bottomed Pixie right by the Empire State!

    Even if you bowed out now you would be a legend for us lovers of old pics.

    Thank you for your work.

  3. Thanks a lot, Jim, I have indeed been very blessed over the years to play with so many wonderful people. I always try and add pictures to posts that are not likely to ever get their own post. What might be a throwaway image for me could well be of great interest to someone else.

  4. Theo,

    I’m not bowing out anytime soon. Like I said, earlier this year I was so appalled by the behavior that I was witnessing that I wanted no part of any group that found that behavior acceptable. So I did bow out in a certain way, I bowed out of spanking social media. My blog will continue for many years.
