I don't really ever get involved in political banter and such on here..but for this one, all I have to say is I work at one of those insanely expensive private schools- let's call it "somewhere in Dulwich".. and trust me, even there where activities, clubs, after school care are in abundance, the staff are still overworked, minimally paid, and under appreciated by their SMTs. It's not an "ideal" template to follow. TAs especially! New found respect for them, they are doing so much for your kids than the class teachers themselves, especially in Early Years. And I do feel sorry for all those kids at pick up time, they are beyond shattered and sleepy and fed up. They are home by 5/ and in bed by 7-8. Back again the next day at 8 for Breakfast club!etc...
So state schools want to mimic private schools? Besides the kids, who's going to compensate the already worn out staff?
Luckily I am a contractor there so I am not a total slave to them in the week.
How long before you stop being a newbie?
Oh god I'm not 32 yet!!!! :eeek:!!!!!!! I'm 31, 31, 31!!

Anyone know of nice hosts who might rent out a room for 3 young ladies on the island in August?
Any other tips and recommendations welcome including :swingingchair: fun
First time on the party island- but not really planning on being featured in the next series of Boozed Up Brits Abroad..
It is a real shame, because besides that, it's quite a nice wee club. Handy to me, lovely people there, good size(the club that is) but the one time I played there I found myself finding the furthest darkest corner possible and asking my partner to "block the view" siigh. A friend of mine who frequents it with her boyfriend said she feels very self conscious as well there and tries to hide behind people..
I'm surprised that not enough people have mentioned this to the owners for them to do something about it.. Obviously it's not something that's affecting business..
I have been to a few sex clubs, and most have had a similar set up when it comes to the play areas including lockable private rooms. However, I went to a club that didn't have any private rooms. They said you can't lock a door for safety reasons in case something happens in there and one of the people involved can't get out. Ok fair enough, we don't need to "lock" the door, but atleast be able to shut it as an indication that the individuals in there want privacy. The owner's response to that was:"Private Rooms, are against the Ethos of Real have areas where you can lock doors to play but these areas are viewable through mirrored windows."
I am struggling to see how being watched is part of the ethos or a requirement? Isn't it about being comfortable with what you're doing? And if I want to join a couple but feel self-conscious about people standing there watching me, I am no longer a swinger, or the couple for that matter..
I feel like what they're saying is that I am being a bit of a hypocrite if I say I like to perv and watch people but when it comes to me, I'd rather go private. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for flirting and being playful in open spaces and yeah sometimes I have engaged with someone infront of others. But sometimes, I am not in that frame of mind and would rather focus solely on what I'm doing/being done to me rather than on the fact that I am putting on a show for someone..
Thoughts?..
As long as you are as open and honest with the female you intend to play with as you have been in this forum post, then I don't think there will be any "disappointing" going on. The right female or bi couple for you would be ones that were understanding of your apprehension. I've been in your shoes, and after lots of chatting and getting to know the couple(fem) I was upfront about the fact that this is new to me and I don't know how I'll like it until we get down to it..No pressure. If anyone gets annoyed at you because you're not feeling comfortable, then good riddance. This obviously works both ways.
Goodluck x
Right.. So maybe I should just bring the sponge and leave the icing up to Suedey..but I don't like it too gooey :sticky:
