Sadly - no more. Went for my usual checks and got told that unless you have symptoms, they will refuse to do the tests. The Doc, who was very rude I might add, said it was a 'Business Model Change'. Told me to go to my GP for 'checks'. Ah well.
The sad truth is this... straight from the Doc at ASH (Auckland Sexual Health)... The 'standard' checks are for HIV, Syphilis, G, Hep A/B/C... what they can't check for is Trich (in men), Herpes (unless you have symptoms). Herpes, although annoying, is essentially harmless (except for the emotional harm). Heh - with herpes 1 in 3 women, 1 in 4 men have it. Most (over 80%) have no idea they have it and show no symptoms - plus, to make matters worse, condoms are only partially effective (one Doc said - essentially useless against Herpes - especially HSV-1 - the oral variety). As swingers, we all have to be aware the risks we take in this lifestyle. And yes - for me, checks every 3 months are a must! Even had a blood test for Herpes - neg of course! For men, Trich is never tested for... if you know you have been exposed, a heavy dose of anti-biotics is given. Women are routinely screened, by swabs, for Trich and Herpes if admitted to hospital for any 'woman' issues. Sometimes you are not even told - unless it is a positive result. And yes, as a Club owner, I have researched this issue in depth.
[quote:39873bfc78="Cyn"]I heard a rumour that a new meeting place for swingers has been set up in the region at a place called The Love Shack, anyone know where this is?[/quote:39873bfc78]
There are several 'Love Shacks' in the Central North Island. Most are 'get aways' for couples. We believe one caters for 2 couples. None we would class as 'Swingers' type places, though they could be booked by Swingers and used as such. Expensive though - one is $ per couple per night. Simply google 'Love Shack'.
Hope this helps.

An example of someone first expirience. I don't meen some thought up story but real feelings.
Hmmmm...... Tricky.
My first real experience was at a party. I got a little drunk, as you do, and ended up downstairs in the Spa room. There was a couple bonking in the Spa, doggy style, and I got called over. Next thing I knew my pants were down and this lady was giving me head. Kinda strange feeling as she was moving to the rythm of her hubby screwing her. But nice. My wife walked in and said 'Oh, thats what happened to you' and proceeded to go down a lady seated on the edge of the Spa. Kinda sexy.
As to feelings. Don't really have any about this. The sex was so-so, until we got home that is. Boy, were we horny.
And that I think is the point. 3somes, moresomes are really to be considered foreplay. Anything more can lead to real trouble. And I have seen the results first hand. Not with my partner, but as we run parties, clubs etc, we do see a LOT of fallout. To be expected I suppose.
Rod.
