If yer looking for me recipes then you can find them here.

Here's a blog about me being a bit messed up.

For the No Repliez thread.

Some choons

Truffles.

Ok I'm doing an updated truffle recipe to see if it makes it easier for people.

Ingredients: Makes about 40 and can take a day or two to make.

• 200mg Bar of Bournville.
• 200ml of Double Cream.
• 200-400mg of Cadbury's Dairy Milk.

Yep that's it, 3 ingredients, although you can add extra bits and pieces. I sometimes use those giant Cadbury's buttons as bases for the truffles to help avoid sticking. And you can use cocoa powder to help with the sticking as well, I tend to use the Bournville stuff.

Equipment:

• Cling film (you might need to raid yer toy bag for it).
• Microwave
• Truffle dipper. Mine came with my chocolate melter but is a spiral of wire with a handle so you can dunk the truffle in the melted chocolate and get it pretty well coated.
• Tray(s) for putting your truffles on.
• A bowl.
• Sauce pan and hob.
• Fridge with enough space for the bowl and then tray(s).

Method:

Break the Bournville into bits. I like to chop it up to cut down on any lumps that get left in it. Then put the bits in the bowl.

Pour the cream into the saucepan and heat up until it's bubbling around the edges. Stir it occasionally to make sure all the cream is nice and hot and any skin that forms is broken up.

Pour the hot cream into the bowl and mix it into the chocolate until it's all nicely blended in.

Now leave to cool down and then pop into the fridge to set. I tend to leave it over night.

When set, leave in the fridge while you prepare the trays.

Cover the trays in cling film as this stops them from sticking to the trays.

It's best to prepare some kitchen towel in advance as the following parts will be messy and it's good to have something around to wipe you hands on. And I assume you've washed your hands but it might be worth washing them again in cold water to help chill your hands.

Now I use a melon baller for scooping out the truffles but a small spoon will do, you just need something that makes it easy to get roughly similar sized amounts of the truffle mix out.

Now scoop out some of the truffle mix and roll it into a ball in your hands and deposit onto the tray. Repeat until you've used up all the truffle mix. Your hands will start melting the mix and get really messy so you might want to wash your hands every once in a while to clean off the mix and cool your hands down. Your hands will be greasy due to the fat in the chocolate.

Clean your hands and put the trays into the fridge to set again.

When the truffles have set then they are ready for the next part.

Now you need to get ready to coat them. Break up the milk chocolate and put in a bowl that you can microwave. Stick the chocolate in the microwave for a minute on high and then give it a stir. Most of the chocolate should be melted and the heat should help melt the rest, but stick it back in the microwave for another 20-30 seconds and you should be ready.

Dunk the truffles into the bowl and coat them. Do it quickly as the heat will start melting the truffles. When done put them onto another cling film coated tray and back in the fridge to set, although while the milk chocolate is still melted you can stick extra bits like M&Ms to them or use Cadbury's Giant Buttons as bases.

If you don't have a truffle dipper then it could be a bit more tricky. Possibly using a tea spoon and a cocktail stick, skewer or 2 prong fork might do the job, but you'd have to play around and see what works. You might need to take breaks to melt more chocolate.

Once set, enjoy.

Moulds:

If you want to do moulded truffles then I suggest using silicon moulds. Start off by melting some milk chocolate and putting a bit in each mould and spreading it into the edges and up the sides leaving a nice space in the middle for the truffle mix. Stick in the fridge to set.

When set, make the truffle mix, but while it's still liquid, use piping bag or some kind of icing application device to put it into the moulds. Leave a mm or 2 of space at the top so that when it's set you can cover it over with more melted milk chocolate to seal them. You might need to use a spatula or something to smooth them off. Then back in the fridge to set. Before removing them from the mould I like to put them in the freezer for half an hour or so.

Notes:

Remember you are using fresh cream and so the truffles will have a limited shelf life. Coating them in milk chocolate will extend that shelf life. Still I'd suggest finishing them off within a week, maybe 2. And do store them in the fridge as well.

I've not tried flavouring the truffles with booze or anything but I'd suggest adding it to the cream rather than mixing it into the chocolate as it will probably mess up the chocolate.

You could probably add any solid bits to the truffle mix while it's still warm if for some crazy reason you wanted to ruin them with nuts. Some mint crunchy bits might work though so I'd allow those.

The general rule is even amounts of cream to Bournville, mg=ml. However you can play around with it a bit. The more cream you put in the softer the truffle mix will be and also the harder to handle as it will melt easier. Less cream will make it firmer.

You don't actually have to coat the truffles. If you like dark chocolate then you could just roll them in cocoa or icing sugar and have them like that. But they might not last that long due to the cream.

And finally. Play around, see what you can come up with to make them suit your occasions or tastes, just remember that nut contamination is just wrong, so wrong.

If you want me body.

In my early kink years I got off on watching such things as Insex, House of Gord and the early, and now current Kink.com stuff and that's kind of coloured what I'm into and so I'm looking for someone else into such things. I'm a technical person and so like the technical aspects of what those sites did. However lacking the space and money and facilities and so on that those sites have access to and so my ambition has been curbed. Lacking someone to play around in such areas has also limited things a great deal. But I am interested in someone into those kinds of scenes or maybe a female gimp.

However I'm awkward and I can't just play with anyone. I need someone who I get on well with and feel comfortable being intimate with. The problem is it's hard to say exactly what qualities are needed for that as it's different with different people. But patience is probably a good start. I also go for body language and seem to have a thing for the shy quiet type, although I'm kind of shy and quiet as well, which makes communication kind of awkward.

I'm mainly a top although would bottom for the right person, however they are very few and far between. But there are various things I'd like to try or experience.

I'm happy with having one person in my life, but can do poly, although in the past it's always been a bit awkward for me when the person in question has a partner as I feel they should be taking care of their partners needs and that I'm intruding in some way, even if their partner is fine with what we get up to. I also don't mind having an occasional play partner, in fact I kind of like that status when getting to know someone and then seeing if things develop. It's better than heading into a relationship with it aiming to be a life time deal before really getting to know one another.

Yes, I'm shallow and looks count. However only I know what looks work for me. Most supermodels just aren't my type. I don't like too skinny but then don't like too big either. A bit of meat on the bones is usually good. I'm a head person rather than arse of tits or anything like that, although I appreciate a nice cleavage. I like a nice face and hair style that works with it. Intelligence and a sense of humour is good. Preferably a non-smoker and someone who doesn't drink too much.

Things to know:

I'm too skint to travel far so long distance relationships just wouldn't work.

I'm not good with heat and so tend to like having my house/car cool, which other people seem to think is cold and so while I can adapt for friends/guests there are limits to what I can handle. It also means I tend to have problems when sleeping with someone as I tend to overheat and wake up ill.

I'm not hugely experienced (although have been a pretty quick learner) and I've hardly done any kinky play in the past few years.

I'm not great at being in a relationship due to rarely being in a relationship. So I'm a bit set in my ways and used to just dealing with myself.

I can be moody and unmotivated and just plain awkward, although hopefully having someone in my life to some degree might help change some of that.

I'm crap at sex.

I'm a fussy eater.

If you are addicted to reality TV or soap operas then we just aren't going to get on.

If you own a peugeot or have a desire to own one then we really aren't compatible.
