Introduction
Hello, it's me again: everyone's favourite cartoon-faced snub-nosed, sexy-specs wearer. Yes, you've all got it: Davina here, reporting for duty once more, ready to spill juicy secrets that for decency's sake perhaps should be kept behind closed blinds.
No, make that "ready yet again"!
After another lengthy break I am back in the mood to tell more. I am also doing my best to make each set of confessions readable in its own right. As the briefest of brief recaps I'll remind you that, last time out, I ended by seeing the love of my life off on her global travels, and that as far as I was concerned, it was our third and final parting.
Not that I intended going all celibate as a consequence. Not when I had other irons in the fire.
That's enough of the foreplay. Let's get back to 2015 and on with the action.
Chapter One
Kat's words rang inside my head as I drove Maxine 2 away from the airport. Our latest spell of living as a couple hadn't followed the course of the previous two. Rather than devoting our attentions solely to each other, we'd both strayed. Initially there had been the Wife-Swap Fridays, all neatly agreed in advance and acceptable. But there had also been numerous less formal dalliances.
In other words we'd both been unfaithful without previously asking permission. Unlike the wife-swaps those other dalliances had been spontaneous. And, to make matters worse, when we bickered about them afterwards, we'd fallen into a cycle of what I can only describe as revenge fucks, as if each of us was trying her best to be most outrageous.
Trust me; we had both been plenty outrageous. In fact our last two or three weeks together had been immensely damaging. What we'd once had had gone forever. I had been right to draw the final line.
Except the line wasn't all that final, was it? I'd said that I wouldn't live with Kat again but hadn't closed the door on having sex with her, whenever she finally returned. In my perfect little world she could join my army of lovers; the ones I never fell out with and always welcomed back with open arms.
Hmmm, okay then, make that welcomed back with open legs.
What am I like?
Apart from a calculating, scheming hussy, I mean!
Kat was an exceptionally clever young woman. She was also a brilliant IT programmer, always able to land a short-term contract at the drop of a hat. Short-term contracts suited her and her travel addiction down to the ground. She would earn mega bucks, blow every last penny on globetrotting, then do it all again, secure in the knowledge she'd still be in demand.
Trouble with exceptionally clever women was that they could see right through the likes of me. And, of course, they knew my faults and failings better than I did myself.
Having Kat declare her undying love in Departures had taken me by surprise. It had also got to me. I'd been planning the big, tearful farewell for nearly a month. Now I wasn't so sure what I wanted.
I knew that sooner or later Kat would turn up again, supremely tanned all over and brimming with lots of sweet promises. No, I didn't know: I was dead certain. What I didn't know was how I would react.
Especially not if she got that tattoo she'd mentioned (the one close to her kitty, a love heart inscribed with "me too you", the words I had used way back, the very first time that she'd said she loved me).
Corny, I know, but insightful as well. Didn't I just tell you she was clever?
With apologies to Blackadder, she was so cunning you could pin a tail on her and call her a weasel.
Not that there was anything remotely weasel-like about the girl. She was sex and beauty personified. That's why I had doubts. I knew it really should be over, but I was by no means convinced.

Briefly, idly almost, I toyed with the idea of going in to work. That didn't occupy me for very long. I had booked the day off but was still on call. If they needed me, I'd have been made aware by then. Indeed if some crisis happened in the next few hours, I would very soon be made aware.
The joys of being an IT techie, par excellence!
Deciding to forget Kat and work . . . banishing both from my skull . . . I considered the months ahead. I was going to revert to type and alternate between being an utter slut, a complete harlot and a more or less total whore, albeit behaving like the sort of slut/harlot/whore with a genuine gold star.
Guys could go whistle, as per always. I was going to target every female who crossed my path, lezzie, bi or not.
Could I have kicked off my comeback in finer style? Trust me, I could not. Even Frank Sinatra couldn't have come back more spectacularly.
Leaving Maxine 2, my (relatively) new Mini on The Busfeild Arms' car park, I went into the pub for one drink . . . out of sheer politeness, I assure you. I parked in approximately the same spot almost every day, paying "rent" by using my East Morton local as often as possible, meaning minimally seven times a week.
And there she was, perched on a stool at the bar, all blonde hair, super-enhanced tits and sex appeal.
I honestly do not know how Margot did it. She was my favourite older woman, very high-maintenance and a bit of a bitch. She was also drop-dead gorgeous and dynamite between the sheets . . . on top of the sheets . . . or just about anywhere, sheets or no sheets.
Most mysteriously, she always knew when I was suddenly single again. She obviously stalked me in a wired sort of a way, but how? Had she bugged my phone or hacked my laptop? Or did she simply use good, old-fashioned witchcraft?
Whatever it was, she was there in the pub, not quite two in the afternoon, four or five hours ahead of my usual arrival time, waiting for me.
'Davy-girl,' she cried in greeting. 'I thought you'd never show!'
'Margot-babe,' I replied, grinning broadly, 'it's been far too long.'
Margot laughed at that and, not giving one toss for any of the other customers' sensitivities, said, 'It's been way too long, but that's not an issue anymore, is it? Not when we're both here and now.'
*****
I'd like to say we chatted in a civilized fashion, dined in the pub's restaurant and then politely retired to my bed. Sadly, the restaurant was fully booked up until five-thirty so, not wanting to drink ourselves to ruined livers, we had a couple of quiet ones before walking round the bend to fuck the afternoon away on my settee.
(I'll let you use your imagination on that episode, dear reader. Let's just say it really had been too long and we were both exceedingly up for it. And that fucking with Margot was, as always, exquisite.)
Then, around seven in the evening, we chatted in a civilized fashion as we dined in the pub restaurant before downing a couple more beers in the middle bar.
And only then did we politely retire to my bed . . . but not to sleep.
I've mentioned Margot's nails before, I believe, although maybe I referred to them as talons or claws. I adore having sex with that woman but her nails are something else. Margot nearly always wants to be on the receiving end, preferably with a strapless strap-on involved. And like every time without fail she produces raking claw marks on her lover's back.
