i can remember what a caning felt like, although it was many years ago. I was only given 2 or 3 strokes on my bottom from the age of 12 upwards, never had the full 6 so i can’t comment on that, I can only imagine that the full 6 would have been a massive stinging sensation. whilst bent over wearing thin cotton trousers and thin underpants you feel the cane resting on your bottom as he takes aim. there are a couple of taps then the cane lifts away, In a second or two you will hear a loud whistle and a twack. at first, you don’t feel anything and wonder what all the fuss is about, about 4 or 5 seconds later you feel a massive stinging right across both cheeks of your bottom, like a red hot iron is placed there and held there and it is not moving.
