I left the room with stinging buttocks, but somehow feeling elated it was over. Walking or just standing still was a strange sensation as if my bottom had been altered in some way, constantly aware of it, that is aside from the unusual warmth and smarting. I also wondered oddly if others could divine I had been caned. Someone mentioned sitting, but luckily our hard wooden benches were fairly narrow so I could ease back and overhang!
The irritation diminished over a few days as the tramlines likewise faded and the remaining red flecks disappeared, but I no longer remember how long that took.
