I won`t deny that when i first got the tawse that it really was a shock to the system.I got tawsed many times and maybe in a strange way i got used to it.6 of the tawse left the hands burning and swollen and wasn`t something that you planned to take.That said, it did show that cp did not work for many including myself.The cane sensation that some mention are classic effects of the cane.I can only assume that it effected different folk in different ways.The coommon thing that the effect of the cane had on all was when you stood up, the strokes seemed to light up and burn through your very being.The strokes that flanked round the side were horrible and always broke the skin taking ages to heal up.Those strokes were usualy deleivered by a poor caner or one that liked to hurt and there was no short supply of those clowns.
