Have to say.... as echoed above by reese, clarensteve et al we would never entertain thune idea of seperate room fun. As reese said, we enjoy this scene as a cpl, not two seperate entities. Apart from the fact that i'd never put Susie in a position where she felt unsafe, i'd hate to be away from her in those circumstances, plus, i get a buzz out of us playing together.

We do both but to be honest we get turned on from being in the same room as each as Blue says each to their own.
We have tried different room fun, and it was good, but to be honest it wasn't planned; in fact very little of our swinging is pre-conceived.
There have been occasions where the fun might start in, say, the living room, with all combatants diving in together, but for one reason or another, one of the pairings might drift off to a bedroom, the kitchen, Banjo's kennel, whatever; and maybe later everyone drifts back together (the perils of keeping your supply of condoms in only one room).
We have also experienced similar in clubs. We have no problem if whilst one of us is having a rest or a chat the other wanders off for a look-see; and if that partner finds a bit of action they want to dive into, then go for it.
We do love to watch each other during swinging, but swinging can be shared in so many ways. Verbally sharing an experience stimulates the imagination sometimes as much as recollection can.
Also, for us, walking in on your partner and finding them in the midst of going for three falls or a submission can be just as 'inspiring' as observing the action from fondle number one.
I guess our philosophy is never say never and therefore we would feel slightly shackled if we had any rules that go beyond the usual Health and Safety at Humping regulations. Saying that, having both experienced and enjoyed an amount of BDSM, we can appreciate how parameters can add spice.
Whether we would go for a predetermined 'separate room' scenario is unknown, but if we did it would almost certainly be because the other couple suggested it and there was some terrific reason for deciding before hand that was the way to go. Unlikely I guess. I suppose the nearest to that would be a complete swap, ie. one partner at one house and one at the other... you know what I mean.
It's not something that calls to us in the night to experience, but chances are that if we meet a like-minded couple we will try it, just for the hell of doing it, and without doubt we will enjoy the sessions, and, particularly, discussing the shared experiences later.

Thanks for that reply Blue. If you go onto our website and find a link to an excerpt jules has placed there of a thread I replied to on another board to the question 'what is a swinger?' and read it when you get a chance, I'd be interested in your opinion (and anyone else's) or different points of view.

Well, tonight, whether they like it or not - and they usually do like it - its same room sex for all 12 of us, cos we only have the one lounge. Its a big one - and so is the lounge.
Its my 40th Birthday bash, and I'm looking forward to a great night.
Ian has been making plans - he says.
OOh Er!!
Better make sure I've clean kecks to put on - and take off!

. My conception of seprate room fun is it as being an arranged thing where partners toddle off to seperate rooms with another person's partner. But I guess it doesn't have to be like that. I've been in a situation where the fun started in one room but ended up splitting into different rooms, with me with the other guy in one room and my partner and the girl in another. Hmmmmmm........ No..... still not keen on the idea of seperate room fun based on that......... it got boring cos I really do prefer to watch 
. Personally, I think single guys and girls should be classed as swingers if they define themselves as such. I certainly considered myself one when I was a single fem. However, the ex I had who didn't want to swing but who liked to here about what I got up to - he wasn't a swinger by his or any other definition! Other than that, I guess it's up to the individual's interpretation.
