I'm due for a caning on Friday! *dances*

So I'm wondering, how do you prepare your canes for use? Do you soak? If so, for how long? Where do you keep yours stored?

Knowing you're going to experience such a heavy discipline session, how do you feel?

Miss, we've been using some oil-soaked-and-poly-coated canes that don't dry out.

As for how I feel, I feel a pleasant sense of fate. A little knot of fear and a warm glow. I'm always reminded of this bit from 1984:

Quote:
It was as though they were intentionally stepping nearer to their graves. ... He thought again of the cellars of the Ministry of Love. It was curious how that predestined horror moved in and out of one's consciousness. There it lay, fixed in future time, preceding death as surely as 99 precedes 100. One could not avoid it, but one could perhaps postpone it: and yet instead, every now and again, by a conscious, willful act, one chose to shorten the interval before it happened.


Respectfully,

Étienne

When it comes to soaking, it all depends. Rattan is fragile, so if I know I have a caning coming, I will hang them in the shower with Me while I shower. The moisture helps them from drying out. When they get warped, I soak them in cold water for a bit (couple of hours), minus the handle of course (or wrap the handle curve with a rubberband then submerge).

I did stumble on this info years ago:

The Singapore method of using this cane is soak the lower 1/3 of the cane in water overnight to make it more supple and somewhat whiplike.

How wicked! smile

I normally soak for an hour or so in cold water, but I may try the showering technique as my lengthy soaks prevent others from using the shower.

Give it a shot! It works, and cuts time down for others that need to bathe but don't wish to be frightened when they do it! LOL
