Leather Fly Swatter?

Apparently somewhere out there, there’s a rich flyfisherman (but I repeat myself) who lounges about in his hipwaders of the finest hand-harvested plantation gum rubber, fondling his fishing flies while swatting the real ones with a genuine $60 leather flyswatter from Orvis.

Maybe, but I don’t believe it — any more than I believe any of those expensive bespoke riding crops in those ritzy hunt shops in London ever touch the heaving flanks of a horse. Heaving flanks of a cute kept woman, is more like.

    I bought a leather flyswatter at a hardware store in the Ohio Amish Country area. It has a metal handle..but the very same leather swatter. Lots of cheeks…but not flies have been swatted with it!

    WEG. Me thinks you may be correct, sir. :)

    We bought a leather fly swatter a few years back at a cook shop in East Sussex (UK). Don’t think it ever swatted a fly in our possesion ;)

    The riding crops, otoh, do get used on horses as well as on people – some people think it makes them a better rider if they have the snazziest kit they can afford – including those expensive riding drops (instead spending the money on, say, lessons). I’ve ridden with people like that…

    Ritzy hunting shops no more, though, methinks – seeing as we’ve now officially banned hunting over here. Mabye they should all now just suck it up and proclaim their true intentions? (Though I don’t know if even London is ready for highstreet spanking shops.)

    So long as it’s drag hunting, it’s still allowed :) (That’s people on horses following hounds following a pre-laid scent, not anything more suspect…)

    And we have the likes of Ann Summers and Harmony on the High Streets – both of whom sell (very naff) spanking toys

    Good point :) I bow to your superior hunting/mainstream-spanking-toy-outlet knowledge!
