Before the Coffee, Cake and Kink magazine, CCK kept a blog over on Wordpress. One of our regular posts was Friday News, in which our writers would collate links to stories or items that had interested them over the week, this one was 1st published 8th January 2011.

Wheee, the Friday News round-up likes to mix it up a little, so this edition is here on Saturday for your reading delight. With all of these links, they are not CCK content, and do not necessarily express the views of CCK (we just think they’re interesting). Content may not be suitable for under-18s, workplace viewing, or be particularly kinky.
