OK, so it’s been that time of year for four months now, but with just about 72 hours to go, it’s time for Bratmaster.co.uk’s first annual Blogbreak.

We’ll be back in the New Year.

Best wishes of the Season to one and all of you!

PS: You can still fill in that damned Bratmaster Visitor Survey if you get bored!

I’m sure most of her regular readers have noticed a distinct lack of bounce in Tiggr’s Spanking Good Time blog.

As is all too usual in the blogosphere, the pressures of real life have told on our poor feline pal and yesterday she announced her retirement from blogging.

Tiggr, dear, we all understand and while we’ll miss your strippedy, bouncy, tender ass around here, your family must always come first.

We wish you all the Season’s best, all the healing you need and all the peace you so richly deserve.

Sabrina Morgan of Sabrina in Stockings has chosen us as her Editors’ Pick for this weeks’ Sugasm!

Cheers!

Today is the day that Bratmaster.co.uk will see its 10,000th visitor!

With this in mind, we’ve decided it’s about time you spilled the beans about yourselves a little bit.

We’ve written a really easy, really small survey that we’d absolutely LOVE for everyone to fill in!

You can find it by clicking on the button in the sidebar, or by following this link.

Thanks a million for every one of our ten thousand visitors and here’s looking forward to the next ten thousand!

Yesterday was a day off blogging for us. Why? Well for one, it was shopping day. For another, a certain rather special parcel turned up - but more about that on Monday…

Something I’m sorry I missed was Bonnie’s declaration that Friday would be Love Our Lurkers Day, where almost everyone in Spanko Blogland was encouraged to persuade their silent visitors to ‘fess up and leave a comment.

Being a day late to the party, I took it upon myself to comment on every “LOL” post I could find.

Ow, my cramping fingers!

Here’s a list of all the participants. If you read this and I didn’t leave a comment for you, I’m truly sorry (In the case of some of you, you can blame blogger because it got all pissy when I pressed the “Leave Comment” button!)

There’s a few people on that list that are new to me, but you can rest assured I’ll be checking your blogs out pretty soon!

So anyway, here’s my plea. If you’re a lurker, join in the party and drop a quick “HI” in the comment box. Please…

Pretty Please…

With sugar on top…

I’ll tell you a story if enough of you comment, I promise…

It’s a good one. Spanking, sex, the lot!

Go on, you know you want to…

OK, not quite, but WOW!

Todd and Suzy over at the American Spanking Society have had the kindness to make us the subject of their latest Wink!

Thanks guys, we love you and we’re just blown away that you’re enjoying this lil’ ole place!

I’ve been reading SpankBoss’s Spanking Blog for months now, way before we started this lifestyle.

It became somewhat of a cornerstone to me, as I used it as a starting place to find out about the world of spanking erotica. It’s also where I first stumbled across many of the blogs in my sidebar.

So you can maybe imagine my surprise when I noticed a number of visitors coming here from there.

On further investigation, it turns out that SpankBoss has been good enough to link to lil’ ole me!

Rather chuffed! We’re really honoured.

OK, it’s not Tuesday, but here’s some thanks an appreciation for the good folks - most of whom are populating the blogroll on the sidebar - of Spanking blog “community” that have made us feel welcome and appreciated in so short a time.

It’s a joy to watch our hitcounter spin round each day, to read and reply to posts on your blogs and your kind words on what we’ve written here.

You may have noticed that brat doesn’t have much of a voice here. This is because, although I’ve kept a vanilla blog for three years, she doesn’t feel comfortable writing this way and would rather sit in the background and read.

Rest assured that she does read and appreciate everything you guys have left in our comments box and I’m sure that I’ll be able to encourage her to share more with you all as time goes by.

For now, here’s a short specific “Thankyou” to everyone who has left comments here in the last couple of weeks. It means a lot to us, it really does:

Kayley
Theresa
Padme
Sean & Mel
Good Girl
Tiggr
Lily
Abel

But we’re greedy little bloggers here at Casa Fitz. We want more.

So, if there’s anything you want to know, any questions, opinions, observations, or suggestions you feel like making - especially you lurkers - yes, you know who you are, you Google searchers who come here looking for juicy stories about caned bottoms and “She was going to be punished” and soforth - please feel as free as a bird to click on the “Add Comment” link and show your appreciation, contempt or sheer open jawed disbelief (too far, you say?) for what we’re doing here. We love it, you love it and I’m sure they love it too.

This can’t be right.

It took about three months for me to get any decent results from Google with my vanilla blog.

I’ve just looked at our visitor stats and noticed a google search hit.

Apparently, if you look for “Master spank punishment clitty”, This lil’ ole blog is number one result!

The only thing is, I haven’t talked about spanking brat’s clitty yet - although it’s something she particularly enjoys and I’ve set off many an aftershock orgasm with a swift slap to the clit.

..Well, I guess I have talked about it now, haven’t I?

Welcome one and all, pull up a stool and pull down your pants, Master will be with you soon.

* Just one other thing - We’ve worked out tonight that the pain I thought was Gout actually seems to be a knee injury I picked up from a fall at the local Fitness Centre last time I went. Bollocks! I’m off to see the doc tomorrow to find out the specifics. More news then.
