Next, at about 10 years old, was Spencer. We formed a club with rules, and we would spank each other for breaking the rules, using a short thick stick (12 – 18 inches, just long enough to span a boy’s bottom when held at the end). One of the rules was ‘no spanking’, so as soon as one of us had spanked the other he in turn had to be spanked for breaking that rule. And so it went on – we would fill our time after school and before tea swapping position between spanker and spankee with ever-reddening backsides.
