Well, we enjoyed a lovely evening at the home of my girlfriend Shoo Shoo. We enjoyed a very good meal prior to our Rumi Kube Fest that Shoo hosted.

We nobody got spanked last night because we all were winners. It was some rough going all evening.  I will continue to practice my swing for our next meeting. It will be good practice for my fidanzata too!

The new secret weapon was deployed, and it hit us all quickly. It was great and my girlfriend enjoyed it.
