Domain Names
One of the most common email subjects I receive from non customers is for advise on starting a panty selling web site. I try to be as honest as possible and give a few links to places that may help. One thing that I tell everyone is that you cannot start a site without a little expenditure, a hosting account and domain name will be required if you hope to be taken seriously. I have a few redundant domain names, available for purchase or lease. If your interested in them take a look at the list and feel free to contact me with your proposal.

Jealousy
At least twice a week I like to check our standings on the search engines and I like to play around with a few panty related search terms looking for new material or stories to share with you all. Occasionally I will have a look around a few other panty sites, checking for the usual things, stolen material, bad mouthing and back links. There are a couple of panty sites out there where the web master or web mistress is obviously suffering from some pretty bad emotions of pure jealousy.

Yes jealousy strikes us all at some stage in our lives but why do some suffer much worse than others? What exactly causes one person to become jealous of another? In love and relationships jealousy can be triggered when there is a fear of loosing a loved one. Outside of love low, self esteem is usually to blame.

One definition of jealousy is "hostility toward someone believed to enjoy an advantage." The Buddhist texts classify "jealousy" as "a disturbing emotion that focuses on other peoples’ accomplishments – such as their good qualities, possessions, or success – and is the inability to bear their accomplishments, due to excessive attachment to our own gain or to the respect we receive." It also covers covetousness, the inordinate desire for something that someone else possesses or in simple terms envy.

The definition of envy is "a painful or resentful awareness of an advantage enjoyed by someone else, joined with the desire to enjoy the same advantage and the wish to have these accomplishments ourselves. No matter what the cause for jealousy or envy, it only has one outcome, destruction for the person suffering from it. Not by any 3rd party but by their own self destruct button.

I also noticed a blatant comment being aimed at myself about spam from Northampton and what would happen if I had their address? Strange as I have known the address from day one of the slander and I have no intentions of doing anything with it. Mind you, I can understand the desire not to let others have a home address when they openly practice dominatrix and adult related material, nothing wrong with that but Kaths Quality Child Care next door might become alarmed.

Why do I not mention who you are? Well, those that are close to you know already whom we are talking about and why should I give you a free link on such a popular panty site as Saucy Panties?? Remember dear in operation since 1999, high search engine traffic, fantastic and loyal customer base, new orders daily and plenty of satisfied customers despite your meaningless claims.

Just to reiterate, I know your address so your comments are pointless, I do not send spam, I have no intentions of informing anyone or publishing anything further but I dare say I shall be blamed for something else going wrong in your little world very soon. I comment very rarely on your dribble, mainly because I do not have the time to as I am too busy concentrating on ensuring my own customers are happy.

Royal Mail Charges
The Royal Mail introduced a new charge system today where the thickness and size of an envelope is now going to be taken into account (previously they just went by weight). Both myself and Tiffany have no plans to increase our postage and packing charges at this present moment in time.

"Choices"Choices" by Rachel Kramer Bussel
She paid for her private treasure, watching the saleswoman delicately wrap it in pink paper, leaving the store with a smile tricking about her lips. She went home and took a long, luxurious bath, the hot water finding its way into every spot she'd known was sore, and many she hadn't. She had plenty of time before Nick got back from the game, and used it well, lying around in bed with their biggest, fluffiest white towel wrapped around her like a cocoon. She tried to read but found her mind wandering back to the slip, to the way holding it as it threatened to slip from her grasp.

She finally got up reluctantly replacing the towel on its rack, then smoothing raspberry-scented lotion up her long, newly shaved legs, onto her arms and hands. She looked at herself in the full-length mirror, bare, freckles dotting her cheeks, tousled red curls framing her face, still lean, those proud breasts, the still-flat stomach housing her most magnificent work yet, tangle of ruby pubic hair hiding what lay beneath, strong legs keeping her up, toes sparkling with silver polish. She smiled at herself, the kind intended to warm viewer and viewee, the kind that starts in the mind but in the act of raising the corners of one's lips, makes itself known, demanding an answer. Then she grinned, her smile morphing into something not forced but felt, fully. And, grinning, is how she slipped into the $200 slip, the one she'd been too anxious to try on in the store.

A cramped dressing room was no place for her body to be introduced to such a luxury. No, here in the privacy of her own bathroom, she let the silky turquoise fall against her, let the lace caress the tops of her breasts, her nipples threatening to peek through the mesh pattern. Somehow, the slip managed to straddle the line between elegant and sexy, between upper class wife and downtown whore, quite perfectly. She put her hand on her hip, moaning aloud at the slippery perfection of this fabric against her skin. She'd bought a tiny matching pair of panties, ones that just spanned the curves of her ass, but she Amber decided to forgo them. Standing, the slip's deliberately distressed hem grazed the tops of her thighs, the zigzagging lace pattern drawing attention upward.

Though she was generally prone to modesty, topped with a good dose of body image issues, the sight before her was so sexy that Amber couldn't help bringing her fingers under its hem to stroke her own creamy folds. The additional hormones floating through her body combined with her joy at surprising Nick, and herself, was too much for her, and she knew she need to come right then and there. While she watched in the mirror, looking on as if viewing a live action peep show, which in a way this was, her hand dipped under the glorious silk, crushing it to her stomach as her fingers climbed their way to ecstasy, first meandering along her juicy slit, then pushing deeper,seeking more. She made herself keep watching, even when she longed to close her eyes and float way on the sensory overload of probing fingers and nipples pushing against silk, of hard and soft, bending, hiding, seeking, all joining together.

From this angle, she couldn't see everything, and that was okay. It was enough to watch her first two fingers disappear inside herself, emerging wet and gleaming before plunging back in. She stepped closer, so she was touching the mirror, her fingers fogging it up, humping it almost as her body writhed against the hard surface, the slip the third player in her little game. It was so light, had felt like nothing when she'd taken the bagfrom the clerk, but it was that lightness, that delicate touch that she had to focus on to feel, that kept her going. With her free hand, Amber rubbed her body, rejuvenating her self-love, the kind she remembered from rolling around in the grass of her backyard as a child.

She rubbed herself aggressively, wrapping the turquoise around her slim body, teasing her nipples by pinching them in turn between the softness as she got wetter and wetter. She longed to lift the sip above her head and slide it between her legs, let it sop up the wetness she'd been building, but she waited for Nick, even though part of her knee she was ruining the garment with her clawing and grabbing. She didn't care, and as her breath fogged up the mirror even more, she leaned against it for comfort, coolness, support, fucking herself twofold as she finally shut her eyes and relented, gave herself up, wholly and fully, to her own urges, no one else's. She forgot about the baby, forgot about her husband, forgot about the store and the weather and dinner. All Amber knew was the ache deep inside, the raw need to be filled, full, fucked, and she crammed a third finger inside, maneuvering her thumb to get at her swollen clit.

"Yes," she whispered, then said it louder, her lips brushing the mirror as she spoke, the tiny word growing bigger, bolder, having greater purpose the more she spoke it her "yes" traveled from her lips on down, resounding along her flushed chest, her proud nipples, past her stomach to where she needed it most. The "yes" seemed to slip onto her fingers, to become something more than three little letters as she kept saying it over and over as her fingers merged with her flesh, wet and urgent until they homed in on what they needed. "YES," she finally cried out, the noise coinciding with the crash of the open door as Nick walked in. He heard the finally cry, but couldn't quite figure out what it meant.

Holiday Pictures
I promised two things to the readers whilst on holiday in Portugal, holiday pictures and a competition/prize draw for something with a difference. Well the competition prize is in the post to me as I write, kindly donated by someone that I cannot mention just yet and the holiday pictures are now ready...

The first is not of me, but of two shops that were just 100 yards away from each other, one a lingerie store the other a hair salon.. Why would I take notice of two neighbouring shops? Look closely and you will see that they are named Fannie & G Spot, they go well together in more ways than one.

Just A Quickie
Sometimes a quickie is better than nothing *wink* I will be uploading new images from my holidays and updating a few bits and pieces very soon. They didn't tell me that when you have a new motherboard you have to re-install everything back onto your computer. My old hard drive is set as 'slave' and although I can access most data I cannot use the software installed and I did not dare do too much until I had anti virus installed.

Less quickies and more quality shortly!!

Computer Problems
I am on a borrowed computer at the moment, trying to switch mine on this morning presented me with a blank screen and no signal prompt? I performed the usual checks and noticed that a small red hard drive light was remaining lit. After seven days away and lots to catch up on I knew that there was no time to sit playing around with it so I swiftly unplugged the cables and set off to my local supplier (who also offer a very good repair service).

A phone call just moments ago gave me a larger bill than I would have liked but a smaller problem, the motherboard was dead along with the power supply. A new one supplied and fitted for £168.00 has been offered, had it been the hard drive then £69.00 for a new one would have been an easier bill to swallow but would I really want the head ache of installing everything?

I have also been informed that I can either have my old hard drive backed up for £50.00 or they will put a new one in and use my old one as a slave drive leaving the data in place.. Arghh I thought you could just pop my old hard drive onto the new board but no, it needs XP installing again and tons of other jargon...

The go ahead has been given for a new motherboard and hard drive, I shall keep my old as a slave drive and take the information from it as required, they might have it done today for me, I have my fingers crossed, holidays, who needs them!!

My Flight Home...
All packed and ready to go home yesterday, I awoke, switched on the TV for some UK news and watched with interest the complete mayhem at the airports and terrorist warnings for the day I am set to fly home from my 7 day break!! Would I be stranded in Portugal and if so for how long, the news changing every minute with what you not allowed to take on the plane how would I cope?

I took off to the poolside hoping things would be clearer as 5.00pm approached (the time my coach was set to collect me for the airport) and if I was going to be here a few days longer I had better start making the most of it.

It was no use me sitting around in the hotel room as they had to be vacated by 11.00am and I thought it would be nice to get a few last day pictures to share on the blog should I make it home without being blown up!!

As the time approached 3.00pm a now hot, sweaty and in need of a shower Tina found out that there were no courtesy rooms as promised the previous day, great, just some shower cubicles down by the swimming pool but they do give you some complimentary towels to dry yourself... Big Deal...

I managed to take a reasonable shower, dry myself and get dressed, a few strange looks but I just smiled knowing that the new arrivals would be going through the same thing next week should they have a late afternoon flight home, that was a point, new arrivals maybe there were no delays ahead?

I grabbed some late lunch, put the last few items in my case (I had already heard that no hand luggage was allowed) and sat down waiting for the coach transfer. The coach arrived on time, the rep told me there was nothing to worry about and that Faro airport in Portugal was only running an hour behind.

Sure enough on entering the airport, the board displayed that my flight was set to leave just 75 minutes later than was planned, I proceeded to the check in desk surprised to see people going through with hand luggage? I questioned the staff and they said mobile phones, gameboys and everything I had heard was banned was fine apart from anything liquid, damn, I had already packed everything into the suitcase but I was not going to start re-packing now.

Through I went, no search, just asked to hand over any liquids, into departures and greeted by duty free shopping... Mmmm hang on, no liquids allowed so what about bottles of spirits and perfume from the duty free? "They are fine, they are already secure and sealed" commented the sales lady, "What if I open and use them before my plane takes off?" I questioned, "No problem, you purchased them here" she replied...

My plane did take off just 75 minutes late, people were taking duty free perfume and spirits on board (liquids) and I landed safely. Just like everyone else, we get shown a picture that governments want us to see, things would be a whole lot clearer if we knew exactly what was going on but then would that create even more wide spread panic. I have some very strong political views and if I started on about them now I would probably still be writing this in 12 hours time... So for now, home safely, problems to sort out this end and further updates shortly.

Portugal Update
Hi everyone, I am looking tanned, feeling relaxed and enjoying my last couple of days away in the sun. Yesterday I had a great time in the millionaires playground of Vilamoura, Cliff Richard, Steven Gerrard and a host of other celebrities have homes there. It is said to be one of Madonna´s favourite holiday spots although I didn´t see anyone famous.

I did enjoy a gamble in the casino and I came away 175 euro to the good on the roulette table so pretty good. It does make you open your eyes to how the other half live, some very nice properties and beautiful surroundings.

So what am I up to for the rest of today, well I have just pulled myself away from the pool, it is between the Turkish Bath, a Massage or shopping, spoilt for choice some would say, maybe I shall do all three in no particular order.

Once again thank you for your patience with orders waiting to be processed, again I stress that your card will not be charged until I return in a couple of days time. I am limited to what I wish to access on a public computer, customers payment details are not one of those things I shall be accessing until I return.

Hi From Portugal
Here I am into day one of a 7 day break in Albufeira Portugal and already I am missing my regulars, guests and others that like to follow my blog. The weather here is gorgeous, very hot, the scenary beautiful and my tan is keeping topped up nicely after the UK´s recent heat wave. I have some nice pictures to share with you when I return and also a nice free to enter competition where you will have the chance to win something very different indeed so I shall keep you all guessing on that one.

The Internet connection costs 2 euro per 20 minutes, its very surprising how quickly that time passes so I am going to click the publish button, say wish you were here and will speak again very soon. Before I do, one quick note, anyone placing an order will not have their card charged until I return, I noticed several pending orders in my inbox and I have only been away a day so a big thank you for those... Speak soon

Underdares
I am always on the look out for affordable panties with a difference, I think I might dip my hand into my pocket and buy some new ones from the Underdares range.

So what are Underdares? They are a range of panties with dares written on the front of them, dares like "Pretend your penis is a puppet and perform a skit with it" or "Kiss every inch of skin outside of Crotchville" one of my favourites, "Call your mom and tell her we're about to have sex"...

Laura Leu CEO of the company said she came up with the idea when she decided that she was lacking in just one kind of panties; "A cute pair of undies that would make my guy put some effort into getting into them. Because after talking to my girlfriends, I learned that they, too, had boyfriends who would take them from zero to naked in three seconds flat. Where was the anticipation? Where was the appreciation? Why couldn't guys just slow the hell down and enjoy the scenery?

So I put my noodle to use and came up with a bunch of dares, some being sexy and some being silly. Panties printed with dares, which guys have to perform in order to get the prize — the prize being what's underneath them, of course....

Madonna
I was lucky enough to watch Madonna perform live at Wembley Arena yesterday, it was the second time I have seen her perform as I was also at the re-invention tour just under two years ago. Although I enjoyed the concert it has to be said something was missing last night, maybe I was spoiled by such a great concert two years ago but I felt Madonna lost it a little in the middle of the night, concentrating too much on trying to be a rock chick.

It is a well known fact that Madonna always requests that the air conditioning be switched off when she performs, she did however ask for it to be on yesterday and they didn't have any. I think it was broken!! Boy did it get hot in there, all around people looked to be struggling with the conditions, maybe another factor in why this concert was (in my opinion) not as good as her last tour... Still a great performer at 48 years old, putting many women to shame with her athletic looks, was it worth the £165.00 a ticket?
