e ll s n e . , r o e y , e d e s t l d h l fab – like a hard hairbrush – and spank (but not too firmly) across her bottom.

Then follow up with three or four items that produce nice sensations, a feather duster, silk scarf. She has to guess what’s touching her and every time she gets it wrong, she gets the hairbrush again. Funny how she doesn’t seem to mind…

Look him straight in the eyes and talk very dirty. Another classic that never loses the power to shock and arouse.

Get her to pretend to be fast asleep then whisper the instructions so the game can commence: she must stay asleep to get the treats you’ve got in store for her. You then proceed to caress, lick and stroke every inch of her body, stopping the instant she “wakes” up. (Increase the active bits a tad if you start to hear gentle snores!)

Buy a case of his favourite wine and wrap 12 notes around the neck of each Dr Tracey Cox bottle, detailing things you’re planning to do to him as you’re drinking it.

Challenge her to a game of sexy Scrabble. Follow the rules (well, kind of) but all the words have to be connected to sex. Make sure you spell out deliberate messages of what you’d like to do to her once the game’s over.

Let him play voyeur. Pretend to undress as though you’re alone but let him watch you.

Take your time and remember to tease.

Write sexy notes and leave them in unexpected places, like under her pillow, in the bathroom mirror or in her handbag.

Say goodbye with a promise not an air kiss. Instead of a peck on the cheek, plant your lips squarely on his and move in for a long snog, tongues and all.

While you’re doing it, your hands creep around to start stroking him. Keep going for one minute only.

Then stop. Abruptly. And say: “Have a nice day, honey. See you tonight.”

Record your sex session and play it back when you’re next having nookie. Noises are arousing (and a lot less traumatic than watching yourself cavort about naked on video).

Grab that bottle of Christmas bubbly and get your partner to lie on their back with you straddling them.

Take a good gulp of chilled champagne into your mouth, resist the urge to swallow, and simply hold it there.

Now, lean over and kiss them, letting a tiny, little amount of champagne trickle into their mouth. The more turned on you get, the bigger the gulps.

Even better if some overflows down the sides of their mouth – you’ve then got the perfect excuse to lick it up with your tongue.

One word of caution with the champagne kiss – it’s rather easy to get sloshed!
