Hello once again,

Well the time has come for another announcement that I will be having a couple of months off from the beginning of November this year, firstly I need a little break so I’m off for a little holiday and on my return in late November I will be having a total knee replacement which in all honesty I’m dreading !

After 18 months and 3 surgeries I’m going under the knife again….surely there is not much more of me to cut up, stitch up or remove but the knee needs doing and I’ve put it off for too long.

So, having anyone over my knee for a jolly good spanking will not be possible for a while although I am hoping that I’ll still be able to spank in other positions and having surgery doesn’t stop me swinging a cane does it ?

I am taking appointments now for the next 3 weeks so please do get in touch if you need to see me.

Can you imagine what type of mood I’ll be in after not spanking for a while…..oh I do pity the first person that takes position over my knee on my return.

OUCH OUCH !

I have always been interested in the question of Cp and marking so I want to know…if not too personal,  do you need to hide your marks after a session ?

If you do…how do you do this ?

I have many gentlemen that don’t worry at all about marking, some younger, some older, but most are in a relationship.

Is it that if you don’t worry about marking that you don’t have an intimate relationship ?

On the flip side I have gentlemen that absolutely cannot have any marks at all.

So, what are your thoughts on marking….do you feel that you’ve not received a good session if you don’t leave marked or do you want to be marked and then worry about how you’re going to hide them.

I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Miss O

I wanted to post in the hope that if anyone has called or texted my contact number over the last 2 or so weeks and wondered why I’ve not answered or found my phone off then it’s because I’ve lost it.

I contacted my service provider who said that they’d transferred the calls to my personal number but I’ve just found out that they have not.

So, from today the problem has been rectified and there should be no further issues.

Miss O

Hello all,

This is another reminder that time is running out if you need or want an appointment to go over my knee.

This will be my last week working until the 15th November and then I have just 5 days before I take at least a couple of months off.

So, please don’t leave things until the last minute as this week is filling up fast.

My contact me on 07591 163299 or email me at opheliadehavilland@icloud.com

Miss O

I’m sure most of you are aware that I will be having a total knee replacement tomorrow 21st November, I will obviously not be spanking any bottoms for at least a few weeks but will of course update my blog as my recovery continues to let you know the progress I’m making.

I’m such a bad tempered madam when I don’t spank….of the poor hospital staff having me as a patient.

Thank you for the many kind words and if you are waiting for a reply to any emails I promise you I will answer as soon as possible.

My best wishes to you all.

Miss O xx

Hello everyone…did you miss me ?

Well I certainly missed you all and after over 2 months and 1 total knee replacement later I’ve decided to start working again, I simply miss spanking far too much.

So as from today I will be taking a few appointments and ease myself back, I will write my blog in detail later on this evening to explain why I’ve been away for so long, future plans and other things.

Miss O

So, back on November 21st I had a total knee replacement plus new knee cap, I never appreciated the journey that this would take me on both physically and mentally.

After hearing many much older people say “oh I had a knee replacement and I sailed through it” made me feel dreadfully hopeless, then usually I’d find that said person had a partial replacement which is totally different as are hip replacements…there is nothing to compare to a total knee replacement I can tell you.

I went into having this operation with a somewhat blasé attitude thinking I’d be back to spanking gentlemen over my knee in about a month…. that wasn’t anywhere near the case.

I was only in hospital for 3 days and then went to spend the first week with a friend which was a great help, I’d have never have coped on my own.

I came home and every single day turned into Groundhog Day, when I say I was getting just between 1-2 hours of broken sleep aided only by morphine my life was literally turning into a sleep deprived nightmare.

As a lot of you know this was my 4th operation in just 2 years so it has somewhat ruled my life for quite some time now.

I have managed to walk without crutches recently and have started to take the hounds out each day for approximately a mile and a half, I have physio every 2 weeks and do my exercises everyday to try and build the quads which will stabilise the new knee in time…the physio is bloody painful but no pain no gain as they say, I do however maintain that it is i that gives pain and I’m not the one that should be receiving it.

In about the last 10 days I feel that I’ve “turned a corner” in my recovery, I’m still not sleeping that well but better than I was, I still have a swollen knee which hopefully will start to go down over the next few weeks/months, the pain comes and goes and I’m learning to live with it for the moment.

Today I’ve started taking appointments again which I’m really pleased about, what I am saying to people is that if you’re over my knee having your bottom spanked and I do have to change position then so be it, I’m sure still being over my knee but having your upper body supported by the bed wouldn’t be so bad…after all, you’ll still be leaving with a well reddened bottom.

I did think 2020 would be a year of no more surgery but alas it’s not to be, I do have to have my other knee replaced and my surgeon wanted to do this in March, I on the other hand have elected for it to be done in about August so at least I’d be able to lay in the garden if the weather permits it.

As usual I’ll be going out to South Africa at some stage and will hopefully be meeting Mistress Baton in Johannesburg, she is the one foreign mistress I most want to meet who has a formidable reputation, she tours often worldwide and if you have the opportunity to session with her it won’t be something you’d forget in a while…but then why would you want to.

I must also mention a new updated website with lots more content, new photographs etc, this was supposed to have been done last year but the surgeries held all of this up, it is a top priority of mine to get it done as soon as possible. If you have any ideas of what you’d like to see included on the new site please do email me at opheliadehavilland@icloud.com

If you’d like to make an appointment to see me please also email or give me a call on 07591-163299

I am also going to try to keep adding to my blog at least a couple of times a week, it won’t always be about Cp as I have lots of other interests too…some may be of interest and others may not.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes

Miss O

After my knee surgery I have been having a terrible time getting any sleep as I spoke about in the previous blog but after thinking I’d finally combated it by getting some sleep over the past few nights last night took the biscuit,

I went to bed at 11pm and I was still awake at 1am, then the clock said 2am, 3am, 4, 5, 6…at 7am I got up and gave the hounds their breakfast, they on the other hand snored their way happily through the night, I went back up to bed and still couldn’t nod off…I have no idea why the night was so bad for me but it got me thinking about my childhood sleep.

I was frequently spanked by the nanny, usually for backchat or being cheeky, it was done always after a bath so my bottom was warm and supple and then I was sent to bed….I would sleep like a baby.

No, I’m not asking for a spanking before bedtime even though I’m sure I’d get a lot of offers

So tonight I shall go to bed with a cup of Horlicks and see if a malty hot drink will send me off to a deep childhood sleep.

Miss O

After the most ridiculous night of no sleep on Tuesday night I managed to stay awake all yesterday and about 10:45 last night was just about to go upstairs and prepare for a wonderful night of hopefully great sleep….then I got a message on my phone from a friend who hasn’t been well recently.

She was in a very bad way and I just threw on my coat over my loungewear and slippers and drove to her house to see what I could do for her but it resulted in me being very worried for her and the accident and emergency dept was the only answer.

From 11:30 until 4:40 I was at the hospital finally crawling into bed at 5am this morning knowing I had to be up 3 hours later for a doctors appointment myself.

At 12:30 I had a bathtime spanking booked which was wonderful and I think giving the spanking gave me the energy to continue the day as I had to return to the hospital this afternoon and then walk the hounds.

Ive not even had time to eat properly today but in a minute I shall make myself a mug of Horlicks and take myself off to my bed which appears to have become a stranger over the past few hours.

You maybe wondering why I’m even blogging about this but as I said before, I want to write more on my site but it doesn’t always have to be about Cp….does it ?

Tomorrow I may even write about Brexit

I have some emails to catch up on which I meant to do yesterday so please forgive me if waiting as I will reply tomorrow when I have a spanking free day and hopefully a day without drama.

My lovely friend is not well but she will be in time, she’s a very special friend and the one that looked after me like a mother when I first had my knee replacement.

Real friends are very rare and we must treasure them, not everyone has even just one friend that they can count on so I count myself incredibly lucky.

Miss O

Well this wasn’t the blog entry I had planned for today but on just learning the news that the beautiful Caroline Flack has killed herself I feel I must say a few words.

This young lady aged 40 was hung out to dry by the very people at many newspapers who are now tweeting about her and saying how sad it is, how wonderful and lovely she was, the media have been absolute vultures towards her after an alleged attack by her on her boyfriend.

At Christmas a judge told her after being charged with the attack that she was to have no contact with her boyfriend, the very boyfriend who didn’t want any charges pursued. He stood by her saying that he wasn’t a victim.

How sad it must have been for Caroline to see a lovely photo of her and her boyfriend Lewis on Instagram posted by him saying “Happy valentines my love”…but of course her bail conditions meant that she could have no contact with him so couldn’t reply.

How lonely she must have felt yesterday when so many others were celebrating with their own loved one, Caroline couldn’t have contact with hers.

The media have done nothing but hound this lady for months, camping outside her home etc.

How alone she must have felt to take her own life.

I thought she was a great presenter, so kind and had time for everyone.

Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

RIP Caroline….you’ll be missed by so many.

Hello everyone,

Since my knee surgery i find myself quite tired a lot of the time so I’m going to take a few days off to rest my new knee further, so won’t be available from between the  13-23 March.

I am coming back slowly to full time spanking and am very pleased that I seem to be able to have people over my knee with no real issues.

Today the weather is absolutely shocking here in the South East that I feel like sneaking back to bed and hiding under the covers but alas the hounds need walking and Blaze Bottom Cottage needs the ostrich feather duster to work its magic, this old cottage never ceases to amaze me on how much dust it gathers.

This is just a quick entry and I’ll write more a little later.

Miss O

Hello all,

I have written once before about the authentic Victorian birching frame that I own and thought I’d write about it again.

I was gifted this many years ago by Thomas who used to own the “House of correction” in Eastbourne if anyone remembers that.

The frame was passed down to Thomas via an old headmaster who had been given it by someone that worked in an old reformatory years gone by.

We think from what we found out that the frame was made by some boys in the woodwork class at the instruction of the woodwork teacher.

It truly is an amazing piece of kit, it has 4 arms that would have held the legs and hands bound with leather straps which are still attached, there is the middle section that lifts up where the middle body would have laid, each arm has hinges on it so the entire thing folds up very small so it could have been put in a cupboard and bought out at times of punishment.

The most interesting part for me is that there are some boys names etched into the frame with how many strokes they had taken.

So many people over the years have asked me to sell it which I’ve been reluctant to do, I spoke to the museum of justice and they were very interested in it as they’d not seen one like this before, mainly there were birching blocks or stand up frames, not ones that were put on the floor or even desk.

The boys that went over it I believe were small or young as i can’t imagine an older larger person being able to be strapped to it.

I will add some more photos of it on Twitter.

I would consider selling it as it is kept in a trunk at Blaze Bottom Cottage where no one gets to see it, I think it should be displayed somewhere.

Please email me if you have an interest….I will add that I would never consider selling this unique one off piece for peanuts.

Miss O

Hello all,

This is going to be a very quick post as I have a million other things to blog about, a huge amount of emails to answer from people (sorry if you’re waiting) and many other things.

So today I popped over to the local farm shop as I support local businesses rather than the supermarkets if possible and as I approached my friend Gabi’s little business ( a burger van on the A24) i was behind a parked truck, I got out of my car and then saw the driver of this truck toss his coffee cup out of the window onto the grass verge, I instantly saw blood red, marched over, picked up the cup which I could feel still had (hopefully hot coffee/tea in it and threw it back through his open window landing on his lap and hopefully burning is bollocks !  “Are you mad ?” he shouted…”I’m f’ing furious you f’ing, bloody, ignorant fat old c…” I said (perfect rendition of a fishwife) ….his friend sitting beside looked embarrassed as I continued my rant about waste, littering not only the countryside but everywhere, and if he had children did he not think about what his behaviour was teaching them, also adding that if he didn’t have children maybe his scolded bollocks would hopefully stop him from procreating, all being said with a few more choice swear words.

If it’s one thing I cannot stand it is people like this, no respect for anything that’s not theirs etc…..I have not been this mad in a very very long time.

Miss O

Hello all,

So it’s been a long few months and this won’t be a long post I can assure you of that.

The only thing I’m interested in is giving a long over the knee hand spanking.

So with that in mind I have decided to take the bull by the horns and having had many discussions with medics specifically within working with Covid-19 patients I will be returning to work.

I will be seeing a very small number of people and one per day so I can thoroughly sanitise all areas before and after, there will be a few strict rules and you know how I love a rule breaker BUT these rules will be put in place for a reason and will not be be broken.

I have been increasingly moody lately and that’s because I’ve not been spanking…no work makes for a very dull Miss Ophelia….just ask Mistress Helen Ryder @www.mistress-helen-ryder.co.uk who was on the receiving end of my moodiness today when we were chatting. On a different matter I have to announce that I am making a film late in the year and Miss Ryder will be appearing in it, I’m so excited about this film which will be the very first one that I’ve made with scenes reminiscent of my own experiences of boarding school and childhood.

I have a need to spank and a love of it….I simply have to spank people.

Since I returned from South Africa in March I have self isolated in Blaze Bottom Cottage without seeing anyone in the cottage, I haven’t been to supermarkets or visited any towns, I have had a Covid-19 test which came back negative, I was entitled have one as have been visiting an elderly neighbour who has been reliant on me doing a little housework for her.

If you are wanting an appointment with me then please do contact me on 07591-163299 or email me at opheliadehavilland@icloud.com where we can discuss when and who I will take appointments from and the all important rules.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Miss Ophelia

Hello all,

I hope you’re all looking forward to receiving a well overdue spanking when I start working again from the 4th July….I for one cannot wait.

I am writing this short blog to see if anyone has had any experience with crowdfunding or similar ?

As most of you know I go out to South Africa on safari quite often, over the years I have been shown some of the most incredible sights and experienced things I could never have dreamed of, all of this has been down to one man, my ranger Sean who I’ve followed from one private game reserve in the Sabi Sands to the one he is head ranger at in the Timbavati.

Sean is the most passionate person I’ve ever met regarding nature, I’ve marvelled at blades of grass to being wowed by seeing the worlds most trafficked and incredibly rare animal the pangolin.

He is a keen photographer and i would love to buy him a super dooper piece of kit so he can continue to share his passion with so many of us fortunate enough to experience safari and those of us that never will, he has often spoke of being able to sell his photos online, through his work etc but doesn’t have the fastest of lenses etc.

When I last saw him I knew that South Africa had closed to tourism and with that came being laid off from work as the lodge had to close, the future is so uncertain for all of the staff and at the moment he remains with his family living at the lodge in the hope that tourism will start up and the guests can return. Their young daughter is being home schooled as they live 90 minutes from the nearest town where she usually goes to school but fuel for the car is a luxury they have had to cut back on as well as many other things so I just wanted to do something nice for him….buy a professional piece of camera equipment that he will have for many years so he can continue to do what he loves and also start a side business.

I thought I would try and raise the money but having never done anything like this before would welcome any experiences or info that anyone could give.

I’m wanting to raise £13,000.

Please do send me an email at opheliadehavilland@icloud.com

Thank you x

Miss Ophelia

I am overjoyed to say that Blaze Bottom Cottage is once again open for business, emails will be answered, phone answered and bookings taken.

What a year…a year we have hopefully learnt from, a year one doesn’t want to repeat, we have to learn to live with this damn virus and get on with our lives, I am so looking forward to seeing you all again, regulars and new people, my hand is just itching to connect with bottoms once again.

There is so much to tell you all and lots of news so watch out for some exciting news from Blaze Bottom Cottage.

The post After a long long break... first appeared on Ophelia de Havilland.

Hello everyone,

Just a quick note to say that I know many of you are awaiting the new website and this is going to happen but have a few images and videos that I need to get to my web design chap and I’ve had to delay things a little as I was recently informed (via a text message would you believe)  that my father had passed away in April.

It has been a little hard to concentrate on all things Cp recently but with support from many friends and some clients that I look upon as my “Cp friends” I am glad to say that my head is clear and hand is hard…not to mention the strong thighs to scissor you gents between whilst my hand connects with your bottom cheeks.

To those awaiting an email from me, I will get around to that mountain this week.

Thank you.

Miss O

The post Just to say.. first appeared on Ophelia de Havilland.

Hello all,

I have trusted so many people that want to have an appointment with me and have not taken a 50% deposit from anyone that I’ve not seen before but after a couple of cancellations I can no longer do this, I will be very firm going forward….if you have not seen me before and want an appointment with me you have 2 choices, either pay a 50% deposit or go elsewhere. I will never accept same day appointments unless you transfer the whole fee beforehand.

Miss O

The post Booking deposits first appeared on Ophelia de Havilland.

Hello all, I’m having a 01:16 rant !

Why is it that some people think it acceptable to make a booking and then simply not turn up ? I am extremely fortunate to have very few “no shows” so when they do come they are hard to take.

Now, what makes today’s no show very hard to take is that it was from someone I have seen on many occasions, a very nice gentleman who has never let me down.

Us ladies consider some of you gentlemen friends of ours, you share personal moments and thoughts with us knowing that we can be trusted not to share said information, we listen to you when you have hard things to share and joyful things to share, we listen, sometimes advise (if needed or wanted), we are a shoulder to lean on and of course are here to give you what you want in the way of Cp…we are also human who have feelings, feelings that are sometimes hurt.

Why have I spent my time worrying that this gentleman has had a car accident on his way to see me, not an enjoyable way to spend a bank holiday, this person contacted me on Friday to change today’s appointment to an earlier time which I accommodated by getting up earlier, bathing, dressing for the session and looking my best, I have tried to call and text asking him to contact me but his phone has been off all day…until this evening when it rings but he still hasn’t answered me or my texts and not had the decency to tell me why he didn’t arrive.

Thank goodness I have so many decent gentlemen to see.

Rant over.

Miss O
