An Edinburgh couple have managed to escape Scotland’s long Covid winter – by answering a call from a Caribbean island.

Gillian and Jim Todd have ended up with a work-from-home set-up that is the envy of anyone trying to hold down a job and juggle home learning.

The couple accepted the invitation of the Barbados government to live and work on the island for a year on a new visa.

The Welcome Stamp Visa allows nationals from other countries to live and work there for a year, while doing their jobs for employers in other countries.

The Covid-19 pandemic has severely impacted the island’s tourist income, but the Welcome Stamp, launched last summer, is designed to bring people to the location and let them live like a local.

So far, more than 3,000 so-called “stampers” have taken up the offer.

Gillian told BBC Scotland’s The Nine: “Jim is allowed to work remotely, so we thought why not?

“It was easy. We had to pay £2,000 for the Welcome Stamp. It allows you a year but you can apply again for another year after that. We put stuff into storage, then bundled a few things in a case and got on the plane.

“When we got there we had to quarantine for two weeks. But after that, it was fine.”

What would it be like to work from home in Barbados?

IT consultant Jim’s working day starts early so that he can enjoy the afternoons in the dream destination.

Gillian said: “Jim works from 05:00 until 13:30. He doesn’t mind it at all. It’s bright and quiet in the morning so he gets a lot done.

“But I feel like I am on holiday. I gave up work last January so I have been doing yoga, meeting my friends and buzzing about.”

Gillian, whose daughter Helena is working on the front-line as a carer back in Scotland, says she can almost forget about the pandemic while in Barbados.

The island has had just over 1,000 cases in total and nine deaths and has battened down the hatches following a recent spike, introducing a 21:00 curfew until the end of January.

People arriving on the island need to have a negative test result and isolate until they return a second.

Those who do test positive have to stay in government-run quarantine facilities.

Gillian said: “You basically get taken away to an army barracks at St Lucy in the north of the island and kept in isolation up there. It’s a good way to do it because it means people have to toe the line and there is no mucking about.

Bajan Prime Minister Mia Mottley has said the scheme makes long stays in the country possible, as short-term travel becomes more difficult with quarantine periods.

She said: “Covid 19 has changed work globally, with a larger number working remotely from home. Now we can give certainty for the next 12 months that you can work from here.

“Rather than coming for the usual week, or three weeks, or a month, we have a mechanism that allows people who want to take advantage of being in a different part of the world, of the sun, sea and sand, and a stable society; one that functions well.”

The couple arrived there in October and have been enjoying everything the island has to offer.

“The beaches are something else, really beautiful,” said Gillian. “There are loads of beach bars and casual restaurants. The people’s approach is really laid back, casual and friendly.”

She is not sure yet if they will stay beyond a year but is encouraging anyone who is tempted to go for it.

She said: “It depends on Jim’s work, so we are playing it by ear. I’d encourage anybody to do it if they get the opportunity.

“Take a chance and do something – you never know when it’s going to work out.”

New Confession

Mr John…she stammered.shhhhh I said. If I tell your mom you were actually f****** on my couch she’ll beat you ground you or? Yeah I know. How can we make this right? Well if I won’t tell you can’t tell. Come over here and sit on my lap. No straddle my legs and face me. Are we going to really f***? No sweetie. You are 13, and I’m not insane. But a little foreplay to give you your o***** would be a nice way to end your night. She edged up to me , saw the huge bulge in my pants. And spread her thighs apart and nestled her tight little a** on my legs. God she was warm. I parted her blouse snd palm ribbed her n******. A minute later she closed her eyes and leaned backwards, her tongue lolling in her mouth. I Slowely began sucking and licking her now hardening n******. Slurp. Slurp. I suckled her tips. Oh oh Mr John you really know how to s*** n******. She panted. Now I ran my fingernails from her spread open knees to her very inner thighs. She felt terrific and parted her thighs wider. I smelled her young eager p**** aroma. It was intoxicating. You smell so fresh sweetie. My name is Lizzie. Call me Lizzie. As I messaged her thighs she respread hrr thighs. Am I all drippy? She asked. I moved my fingers to the edge of her vaginal flesh. Yes swee Lizz you are a little slippery. Met I touch your very soft p**** Lizz? Yes yes I ran my fingers over the slushy slit. From a** hole to her c*** I let my fingers fiddle and wiggle in between her inner and outer lips. Nearly virgin as she was the flesh was delicate and lovely. My fingers and c*** tingled as I played with her p****. She gasped a little. Oh oh oh press on my c******* Mr John. Rub it gently. It’s all on fire down there.what’s on fire? My hot p**** Mr John. I know Lizz but it will get much much hotter . I felt up between her inner lips and gently rubbing her buttonwatcher her face contorted as she bit met bottom lip. Ooooo ooooo. Ooooo she slobbered. Yes honey let it go let it grow wild up into your belly and spread. I will get much more exciting. Her 13 yr old p**** enraged my c*** snd it twitched maddeningly. I caressed the wet button slowly and drew circles around it then tapped it seversl times. Then pinched it and then pressed on it. Then gripped the tiny button. Oh oh oh I’m i’m ( I stopped all movements. She unstiffenefd her torso and nearly collapsed. No no no don’t stop. Just for a minute. Your climb up will be even better. Oh s*** oh s*** I have to peepee. Go ahead let it come. She let loose snd peed into a cup i ok held. I watched her urinate and nearly blew my wad. She finished. I wiped her puss and slid my finger to her wet c******* again. Yes yes yes as I rolled my finger over the now very tender c*** I lifted her Fanny closer to my chest. Now my hot breath covered her c***. But also bared her tiny button slowly and hole. It was pink and puckered. Tho delicious looking I chose to use my other finger to eiggle it over her sss hole. She jiggled her a** cheeks trying to tighten them, but I pulled them apart and slid my index finger up into her lovely little yielding hole as fsr as I could. Once fullly inserted I wiggled it round and round and round. She gagged a bit but I gently lifted the hood on her c*** and sucked it into my lips. My waiting tongue began licking her c*** faster and faster. She grunted. She cried out as her wave of lust built up. As I sucked harder she waved her arms skyward snd grabbed her n******, pinching hard. A wild scream may have begun, but no sound was emitting from her gasping mouth. Her a** rippled and bounced on my legs. She stiffened and then looking into my eyes she collapsed against my body. Gasping for oxygen she sagged into e***** exstacy. Oh god oh god. I hugged her tiny body warmly. Was it good for you Lizz? I asked.
