Being a person of no fixed abode I spent a lot of time bumming around trying to scrounge monies from people and begging for food. When I had outstayed my welcome in one town I would move on to the next and that happened regularly, so much so I never even bothered to remember town names, to me it is leaving last town to go to next town
It was during one of these transit periods while I was wending my way down a lane that a black Transit type vehicle pulled alongside me. Looked like something straight from the A-Team, black paintwork and dark tinted windows. As it cruised alongside me the passenger window lowered a little and all I saw was a pair of eyes. This was eerie beyond belief. After a moment the window closed and the van moved off ahead of me and disappeared out of sight.
I continued my trudge toward the next village/town (whichever came first) but decided to stay off the road and moved several yards into the woodland running alongside the road as a precaution in case the van returned.
It was a particularly dark as the moon was obscured by heavy clouds and it was not long before rain began to fall urging me to hurry. A bad mistake as I stumbled blindly into a clearing I fell headlong into the side of the van. Two burly fellows appeared from nowhere, grabbed me from behind and lifted me into the van.
Inside the van was well illuminated and set out with a cot on one side (bed with a high lift rail), various lockers and a small washbasin. Also, a fearsome looking lady at least 6 feet tall dressed in nursing clothes.
With the side door of the van now closed she told one of the men, ‘this one stinks to high heaven, get some ventilation running.’ Next thing was my clothes (such as they were) were quite literally ripped from my body and along with my little bag of possessions the nurse lady told the second man to take them and burn them.
Every time I tried to protest the nurse would smack me really hard across my bottom until finally she said you need teaching dear. She put a plastic apron on, a smear of cream under her nostrils and a gauze facemask. I am going to spank you good and hard so you learn quickly, BUT I do not have to smell you, you odious little creature.
In a matter of seconds she was sat down and had hauled me across her lap face down. Then the brutality started, this woman was expert at wielding the strap she was now using on my bare buttocks. In less than a minute she had me screaming for mercy and sobbing my heart out. She ignored my pleas and proceeded to give me 25 lashes, at which point she stopped and I heard through my crying ‘Are you going to behave now lady?’ Bewildered by the term ‘lady’ I just screamed ‘yes, yes, yes.’
‘Right’ she replied; firstly we try and remove some of this filth you are encased in and she proceeded to give me a stand up bath, perhaps my first one in 2 or 3 years. Thirty minutes later and satisfied she had cleaned as best as she could with facilities available she told me to lie down on the bed so she could put a nappy on me. I instantly said ‘no way will I wear a nappy.’ Less than a minute later I was again screaming as knives, spears, swords, branding irons and every imaginable painful device appeared to be striking my bare buttocks. After 10 lashes she stopped and asked, ‘still not wearing a nappy?’ I never argued again.
Quite placidly I lay back on the bed while a thick disposable nappy was placed upon me and the nurse said as I had been naughty I would have to wear noisy plastic panties too. Once these were fitted to her satisfaction she then removed an all in one sleeper from a drawer, I wanted to say no but the fire in my cheeks advised me not to. She fitted the PINK sleeper and I noticed it had feet, mittens and a hood. It was fastened only with a zipper at the back and took a small padlock, so even if my hands were free I could not take the garment off. Next she tied the ribbons set within the garment at ankles and wrists. ‘Don’t want you slipping out’ she sarcastically said. Next came a harness, the style babies wear and was even complete with little bells. This was securely fastened upon me and then I was laid back on the bed where two clips attached to the bed were clipped to the harness. I was going nowhere.
One of the men then opened the door and said to the nurse, ‘can we get moving now?’ to which she replied, ‘I will TELL you when we can move and it will not before our lady here has had her bottle.’ BOTTLE!! I thought, what is going on but again and especially now, I was not going to argue, so, when the bottle of warm milk was offered I eagerly drank not realising I would never eat solid food again. The bottle was gentle, quite filling but did carry a strong laxative to purge me and a muscle relaxant from which I would never fully recover, all that aside the bottle was quite filling and for the first time in a long time my stomach felt full.
Within the period of one hour I had gone from a filthy rag clothed tramp to a relatively clean nappied whatever you would call me, and why did the nurse keep referring to me as ‘she’ or ‘her’, what was going on??
Now that I was safely tucked in and now had a blanket over me the nurse raised the side and told the men now was the time for a cigarette if they wanted one as the vehicle was now a no smoking area. All three persons left the vehicle, nurse knowing I was going nowhere and had their last smokes (yes Betty you can smoke here but not in the van) before embarking on the final part of the journey.
Before actually moving off, nurse had one more surprise for me. She dropped the side of the bed and undid one of the harness clips allowing her to roll me on my side, this done she then proceeded to open a little Velcro patch in the seat of my attire, pulled my nappy down a little then, OUCH!! I felt a stab in my oversensitive buttock. The nappy and panties were pulled up and the Velcro patch replaced. I was rolled back and before the harness was re-clipped I was sound asleep. Nurse had injected me with a sleeping draft.
How long I slept for and where we were I had no idea. All I recall is awakening with a serious headache and knowing we were in motion. Next thing I noticed was I was wet and had poo’d in my nappy. I went to speak but something in my mouth stopped me. We continued on for possibly another 90 minutes before stopping briefly. By this time I was getting sore from all the acids now in my nappy and making murmuring sounds from behind the dummy strapped in my mouth. Nurse told me to be patient a little while as we were at our destination and I would soon be changed. She did not fill in ALL the ‘changed’ details. After a brief stop we moved on again but only for about 5 minutes this time.
A few minutes after stopping the second time the rear doors of the van were opened and two people wearing white coats stood in the opening. ‘God! what is that stench?’ asked one.’ Nurse just pointed a finger at me and verbally said nothing but her finger said all. She did make one comment though ‘Should have smelled her before I cleaned her up’ Again this reference in the feminine.
The two men in white coats then entered the van, dropped the side of the bed, unclipped my harness and lifted me on to a waiting trolley outside the van.
‘Okay’ said one, ‘we will take her now, get her ready for the new life she will have, and Hey! Maybe filthy and pong but she sure is a little cutie this one’. Everyone laughed. Why always the reference in the feminine, and WHAT new life?
