Problems at the public baths (Rousse)
Normally I swam in the pool of my private members’ club. Fancying a change, I popped along to the public baths. This was a mistake: the water was filthy; the clientele common; and someone stole my striped tunic from my … Continue reading
Public displays in public school toilets (Rousse)
TPR was forced to return to school. This meant wearing the red and black Stewart’s Melville College uniform. Although his trousers were a little short in the leg, he still looked very handsome. When LM and I visited the school, … Continue reading

A swim, a drink, and passion in the public library (Rousse)
Even in the pool of a luxury hotel, £30 for expensive for a swim. However, this was a rare opportunity to spend precious time with NP, so I grabbed it. The charge included use of a romantic bedroom and access … Continue reading

Commoner with dodgy relations is second in line to the UK throne (Rousse)
Two boys on screen could be seen leaving the grounds of a public school. One was small, blond and modest-looking. The much larger one seemed to be very much in charge, leading their conversation. This was confirmed by the narrator … Continue reading

Art distraction (Rousse)
TPR took down all the pictures in the hall and replaced them with a single massive canvas. It was so big that it covered both the wall and the floor. Friends, art lovers, and the general public from all around … Continue reading
Flo-Jo and the mermaid marathon (Rousse)
The streets of Toronto were lined with spectators for the first ever mermaid marathon. There was just one competitor: a green-tailed lady in a raspberry tutu. To add glamour to the event, Flo-Jo had volunteered as the mermaid’s pace-maker. Unfortunately … Continue reading
