External Link/Members OnlyRachel works at Soft Touch, a long-standing parlour near the Saints rugby ground in Northampton. It's easily accessible from the M1 and there's free parking in a lot 20 yards up the street in front of the shops. The parlour itself is an odd place; not terribly discreet as it has a cafe on the ground floor next door which is often but not always heavily populated and it has a slightly tatty, world-worn decor that's offset by plumbing (showers, jacuzzis) of the highest quality. I've yet to meet a girl there I've wanted to take home, but there have been tubs, taps, and shower stalls I'd have made off with in a heartbeat. The maid/manager is lovely. Soft Touch seems to be going through a room-by-room re-furbishment at the moment though, to be honest, a brothel is a brothel. "Spanking new and tasteless decor" isn't quite the massive advance over "a bit old, tatty and tasteless decor" that you might hope it would be. Anyway, it's comfortable enough and, as I said, you do get access to world class washing facilities. However else you come out of the experience, you'll have reaped the benefits of a shower to remember.
Rachel is probably the body in the photographs (you can't see a face) though since they've been in use for a couple of years (and I actually saw her back then, when she very first joined Soft Touch) they are now out of date. She's gained a few pounds and her body shape reflects that. She hasn't run to fat so I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea but where she was once a size 8 hottie, she's at least a size 10 twenty-something year old now. Punters should be aware of that. Facially, she's a girl next door; attractive in a plain, everyday way. Your chin won't drop -- either in awe or disappointment -- when you see her.
Sadly, the quality of her service (which when she first worked some time ago was really quite good) appears now to have dropped precipitously and my recent visit was, frankly, poor. A truly feeble 5 or 10 minute massage (tip: if you're not going to make even a cursory effort then please, just don't bother) was followed by a no-kissing, no real interaction, very mechanical in-and-out fuck. It was neither satisfying nor enjoyable beyond scratching the immediate and obvious itch in the most basic way.
On that basis (above), I simply cannot recommend Rachel. "A dull, pedestrian and unmemorable experience from a nice girl who, frankly, has no real interest in doing her job well and just wants to get paid for delivering a service" is about as generously as I can describe what happened. In the past, I have tended to give this sort of punt a "neutral" rating with the benefit of the doubt going to the girl but I have, frankly, had enough. I wouldn't accept the equivalent performance from a restaurant so why, simply because the adult services industry is unregulated, should I accept wasting my hard-earned this way in a parlour?
So, in the end this was a dispiriting punt and a waste of money. If Rachel isn't up to doing the job with a bit of vigour and enthusiasm, she should find something she does want to put some effort into. Perhaps another punter has had a better experience but unless someone can contradict me, I would unfortunately give her a wide berth.
