We all got 6 stokes with the slipper over our skirts knowing that at almost the same time (sadly out of of earshot) the boys were getting six, no doubt much more painful, strokes of the cane. We all met up after school to discuss and we suggested comparing marks knowing full well we wouldn’t have any but the boys would, unfortunately there were no takers but one of boys confirmed that it had been hard and had left good quality stripes on their bums. One of the boys was a real sweetie and its a real lasting regret that I didn’t get to see his lovely little bottom with some nice cane marks on it. Happy days (I think!)
