I must admit I had a good idea what was coming but it was only when he went into the desk drawer and pulled the belt out that I knew for definite. I don’t mind saying that I almost wet myself.
“Hold your hand out” was what I remember and he drew the belt over his shoulder and brought it down once on each palm. It was agony, nothing made the pain go for about an hour.
That was the first of many, I just did not seem to learn, and as others have said “It didn’t do me any real harm” but I’ll never forget it.
