The Punishment Room

First a big thank-you to the visitors who have purchased copies of my books from the Woodettes Storefront! Two books ‘Whops and Clobber’ and ‘Operation Scorched Arse’ are currently available and it is my intention to publish the complete saga as finances allow (self-publishing is not free!). The books are available in both print and by electronic download. Obviously electronic download is the cheapest and quickest means of getting to read hundreds of pages of spanking good fun as there is no manufacturing cost involved. Extracts from these books and all the others are available free at the Woodettes Publications Page.

So thanks again to those of you who have taken the plunge and started to read the complete Woody Back to School Unit saga, I hope you enjoy and come to know, love and even hate the characters as much as I did creating them.

I’d also like to take this opportunity to congratulate Garth over at ‘Behind the Barred Window’ for his own successful publication of Institutionalized Volume 2 … way to go bro!

And speaking of institutions lets segue back to the Woody Back to School Unit.

No institution of the nature of the Woody Back to School Unit would be complete without a special Punishment Room. At Woodys this room is situated in a remote wing of the sprawling campus in an annex to the library.

Members of the Elite dispatch the inmates to the Punishment Room by theatrically flashing their red cards and instructing them to, “Step up to the library, I’ll be along to beat you shortly”. In yesterdays post (see ‘Outside the Punishment Room Waiting to be Caned‘) I discussed how in my stories I have tried to imagine how the gals feel as they dismally make their way through the labyrinth of corridors and stairwells until they reach the landing that houses the Punishment Room. Once they arrive they are required to stand hands on head with their noses touching the wall while waiting to be caned.

The wait will be a minimum of fifteen minutes (which may not sound long but you try doing nose and toes for a quarter of an hour! Go on I dare you!). However, naturally the more heinous members of the Elite, especially the thugs from the Secret Sorority of Serial Spankers, like to leave their victims to sweat for extended periods. A tactic guaranteed to give even the most stoic of souls a serious dose of the pip.

Eventually the gal will hear the ominous clicking of heels in the wood floored stairwells as the member of the Elite makes her approach and swings open the door of the library curtly instructing her prey to, “Follow me” .

During the great renovations of the Woody campus Mr Humphries transformed the front room of the library to an airy place of learning with dormer windows and views across the sweeping Sussex Downs. He has installed wireless technology and purchased on-line subscriptions to the great libraries of the world. If anybody is in the study area as the prefect leads her hapless victim towards the annex they politely gather their books and leave. It is considered bad form to hang about trying to overhear the activities that are about to transpire.

Behind a heavy oak door the punishment room is kept dimly lit and although there is a huge ornate fireplace at the far end it is never lit and the temperature in the room is kept to the minimum. The Woody Wags are fond of observing that heating of the room is unnecessary as they’ll be getting warmed up soon enough.

The errant inmate is required to walk down the Brazilian wood floor and take up position beside the fireplace with her hands on her head while her disciplinarian prepares herself.

The prefects remove their blazers and hang them up. They roll back the cuffs of their blouses and loosen their collars and ties so they feel unrestricted for the forthcoming exertions. The prefects make their preparations in a somber silence and take their own sweet time in a contrivance designed to heighten the tension in the room and to increase their victim’s anxiety.

Once her apparel is suitably re-arranged the prefect will then proceed with the scolding. According to the ‘Guidelines for Extreme Scolding’ the prefect may not resort to personal abuse or insults. However, Patty Hodge, the units cruelest and most vile Dame trains her operatives from the Serial Spankers, or the SS as they are better known, to skirt the limits of these definitions and a well-delivered scolding can be a most disagreeable experience. Of course the recipient must remain standing in strict military attention, with her hands on her head and is forbidden to respond while she is forced to chow down on this most unsavory helping of tongue pie.

Punishments administered in the library fall into two distinct categories. The first are conventional canings delivered by the mainstream of the Elite with their whippy ashplants. The ashplants they use are cut from saplings of mountain ash and are specially seasoned in a chimney by the O’Hara family of Dublin, long-established purveyors of fine canes. The ashplants come with the assurance that they are one hundred percent pre-tested for weight, balance and suppleness. Names of the participants in the quality trials are not identified in the associated literature.

Although the ashplants are lighter and less punishing than the number one canes wielded by the Brass or the senior canes used by the principal when applied correctly the ashplants can prove very effective and will generate considerable quantities of smart and sting.

The second style of punishment administered in the austere back room is the strict domain of the gal known amongst the community as the ‘Red-shirt’. The Red-shirt is the most powerful inmate at the facility and is distinguished from her subordinates by her distinctive red blouse, black tie and blazer. She is authorized to administer over the knee, bare bottom spankings with a wood-backed hairbrush in an unpopular procedure known in Woody parlance as ‘dangling’.

Finally the miscreant will be instructed to remove her own blazer and prepare for her punishment.

Canings with the ashplant are delivered across the seat of the navy blue bumbags with the recipient bent forward in front of the fireplace touching her toes. This is an unpopular position amongst the inmates due to its difficulty to maintain. There are strict ‘no jerking’ regulations in place that dictate that a gals fingers must be physically touching the tips of her shoes throughout the swishing (there are strict regulations regarding most aspects of the inmates lives at the facility). Jerking up can result in the stroke being discounted.

The majority of the kindlier prefects acknowledge the difficulty of the inmates maintaining the toe-touching position while a whippy stick is rebounding off their bumbags and cut them some limited slack. Naturally, the cruel bullies from the SS, such as Yvonne Godfrey and Mitch the Bitch, are not in the slack cutting business and take advantage of the discount system. They regularly take the opportunity to give their luckless victims extra strokes.

Danglings are delivered with the Red-shirt seated on the tall spanking stool. The over-sized bar stool was commissioned by the odious Katie Beck during her tyrannical stint as the units most powerful inmate. The stools are designed with the cross bars secreted inside the legs. Due to the extended height of the stool once a gal is over and up even the tallest inmate is unable to touch the floor on either side. She is literally dangling and totally reliant on the Red-shirt to keep her tucked in tightly to the crease of her lap to avoid her toppling off and bumping her noggin.

The Woody Gals consider being dangled a miserable and rather undignified affair but they do not have too long to contemplate their untoward circumstances before the over-sized back of a hard and unyielding hairbrush is colliding with their naked nates.

In the early days of the unit these danglings were limited to a long, slow and juicy six of the best. However, once Ms Lawton unleashed the regime of Operation Scorched Arse she stunned the inmates by authorizing a revision to the ‘Dangling Protocol’s’ instructing the Red-shirts to double the amount of spanks.

Predictably the revision to the protocols was deeply unpopular with the inmates as the hairbrushes that Katie had selected after extended trials were perfectly design to adequately redden even the most voluptuous orbs with just six spanks. The additional spanks on an already sore and swollen behind were considered unnecessary by the Woody Gals but needless to say they were not consulted on the matter.

Once the punishment has been completed it is post-processed which entails it being registered in the small punishment record book that every inmate is required to carry at all times in the breast pocket of her blazer. This allows the wicked prefects to take the opportunity to offer further snide remarks designed to increase the gal’s discomfort before she is finally thankfully dismissed.

All in all a trip to the Punishment Room is not high on the agenda of the Woody Gals!
