I relate a perfectly true and reasonable account of a punishment that was not uncommon in the 60s and for some reason, I get a sarcastic response. Unless your comment was just tongue-in-cheek.
The strange thing is that there are some ridiculous over-the-top revelations about headmasters and bare bottoms and these appear to be accepted and soaked up like water in a sponge.
What I will say is that in my experience, and cp was a daily occurrence right through my school life, is that the vast majority of slipper punishments were one whack only.
This was always as hard as possible and further whacks were just not needed.
