Can you find me some sandals to go with this toga?

AIBU to think that my slaves don't need a day off?

oh, and another thing, that troublesome Iceni tribe in Essex are being a pain again, they've let a lion on the loose again. What can I do about them this time?

Think I might have Legionnaires disease - was I so wrong to sleep with them all?

fussychica, yes - the fact that they were all wearing togas was a clue that it might not be a good idea!

fussychica, 5000 men?! Be careful, zukiecat will feed you to the lions if you carry on behaving like that.

My gf snogs men who brush their teeth in urine. AIBU to love and hate this at the same time?

Have just discovered that eunuch does indeed have full complement of bollocks.

Am sending him back to Honest Titus's Cash & Carry Slave and Handmaiden Emporium first thing tomorrow morning.

I am hoping for a full refund and a few denarii off a new latrine attendant. The last one we had never really 'wiped' properly Hmm
