If anyone was confused by the little white "stick" pointing at Marc's bottom in a couple of the pictures from Sting's "A Taste of Leather" which were posted earlier. I hope this set of pictures will clarify the situation, the implement consisting of soft absorbent wood is dipped into a bottle of "Extract of Ginger" and then applied to a particularly tender part of the victim's anatomy adding an extra element to his chastisement..

This practice, known as figging or "feaguing" was apparently invented by the Victorians - very inventive the Victorians!!
