"Birch for Summer"?
...Oh, Miss Hermione,<br /><br />"Birch for Summer"?<br /><br />Are you really referring to beer?<br /><br />Or is that just a round-about <br />allusion to your intro photo?<br /><br />Birching is an English term for using young sapling tree branch growth shoots for, shall we say,<br />correctional purposes?<br /><br />But, it is not from the birch tree.<br />There is another (right here in Canada), more suitable, and, at the right time, more enjoyable for both partners.<br /><br />Oh, am I boring you?<br /><br />Perhaps I should go then.<br /><br />(If you really want to know, all you have to do is ask.)<br /><br />;-),<br /><br />-R.richardmthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08731275486703230020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4178998232488314107.post-84242586959735032202011-07-27T21:01:16.456-04:002011-07-27T21:01:16.456-04:00Wow.
