Penny tinkers under the bonnet

That sounds quite rude, doesn’t it? Picturing myself in a Jane Austen-y dress and bonnet, naughtily touching myself in the drawing room (as it were), anxiously listening out for Papa’s approach.

But it’s all quite innocent, really. I’ve decided to get into the 21st century and tweak my blog comment system so that people can reply to individual comments. This applies to me especially: I really appreciate the comments you all leave and I figure that it would be nice to be able to reply to them individually.

And so I’ve tinkered. With the blog’s HTML. :-O I’ve even added a custom avatar thing so cute little hearts appear next to everyone’s names.

Do let me know if I’ve broken anything :)

    1. Haha, it works! :D

      Don't worry, Harry - it's just the same as before but with (new! improved!) added functionality. Comments can still be made in the same way as before; all that's changed is that I now have the option to reply to your comment here, rather than at the end of the comment queue.

  4. Carry on tinkering, Penny. I always wanted a heart and a brain too..)A little touching yourself before the evening's banquet will do you good. May I be your slightly older gentleman who scolds and punishes you? (in a fun way of course).

    1. Of course you may, my dear Mr X :)

      Oh... but, having said that... I do hope my gown for tonight is suitable. I wouldn't want to be spanked for wearing something too risqué... then have to sit on a sore, red bottom all evening :(

    2. Hmm ..that eveninng gown is too short, you are spillimg out of your top and sensible flat lace ups not heels should be worn..time to bend over, Penny. It might be a little painful on the wooden seat later..)

  5. Perhaps in view of the general subject of this blog, the heart should be upside down...

    1. I like it, smuccatelli! But alas, Hermione has that one covered already :)

      Maybe you can think of 'my' heart as an upturned pair of buns, as seen on a girl kneeling on all fours, say. And oh, how very red they are :D

    2. Very suitably red..)

  6. I was thinking by the title that young Penelope had done something naughty to Daddy's car and she was going to need another trip over Aunty's knee. Please to see that this was not the case.

    1. lol :) I'll have to remember that one for the future, Aunty. Or maybe just cover his car in post-it notes!

      True story: I once came out to find my car windscreen covered in sticky labels with "DO NOT PARK HERE!" written on them. Turned out that my kind and friendly neighbours had taken umbrage at the back end of my car being two inches into 'their' bit of the road.

    2. Aww, how could your neighbours object to anybody as lovely as you, Penny! I hate my neighbours too -they gave me a lecture about cutting my hedge!

      Delete
    3. We are talking about the back end of the car, aren't we Penny? I can't imagine anyone taking umbrage at your back end being in their property.

      Delete
    4. Aw, lol. Thanks, Aunty! :D

  8. Something for the weekend Missy?...FAB image Penny: your Jane Austen-y summer dress and frilly bonnet, awaiting Papa's strap on your bare bot for that strawberries n cream complexion...t'is the season...and imagining Naughty Little Missy bent over the keyboard and server for just desserts isn't quite the same...um, is that PC World? ;) ...wonderful to see you back on top form Penny. But all the top Wimbledon seeds have fallen, before you and Andrea can smack their bums...er, men and women ! ...Strict Uncle

    1. Thanks, Strict Uncle! (I think) ;P

      And yes, lots of upsets on the silly, slippy grass of Wimbledon - including Maria! Wail, sob!

      Wish I could have been on her physio team... rubbing those sore spots all better afterwards. And, of course, being given some sore spots of my own as she got the frustration out of her system.

      A gal can dream :)

  9. Advantage Miss Hasler if you can wear one of those short white tennis dresses with plimsolls rather than trainers of course) to go with your red bottom -followed by a massage and all the lemon and barley you can drink..)

  10. Missed hearing from you for so long, Penny. How are you and everyone now? I really have missed you. Talking of tennis Maria needed her bottom spanking for losing and if you WOULD wear a short white tennis skirt white blouse with a blue collar I would be more than happy to provide you with a red bum so that you would be red, white and blue!

    lots of love, Sophie xxx

    1. Aw. I've missed you too, Sophie. I hope you're doing great! We're okay here, thanks.

      A tennis spanking sounds like super fun! I do need to be shown proper backhand technique, after all. xxx

  11. I'm a gentleman and will let Sophie spank you first, Penny>>
