In short....
Been punting for 30+ years.
Although risky, initially picking up street girls in the RLD area for the first few times. Was too scared to do this after the first few pick-ups, due to pimps hanging around, most WGs were based in the local council estate, police presence, etc. Have not picked up a girl since.
One of the girls I saw mentioned about adverts in the local rag, so I used these for a while, later on moving on to contact Mags (only those which displayed numbers, as getting private box/bag was not easy for me.
These were stocked by the local newsagent and were kept on the same shelf as the rest of the Dirty Mags.
Later on Sunday Sport had loads of adverts in the classified section for girls, so also used this for any local girls. They later increased their circulation by introducing Daily Sport.
When in London, used the stickers that were attached to all the Red BT Boxes. This is before the pimps started to place business cards in there.
A combination of the above kept it ticking until the late 90s when Internet access was made cheap by companies such as Freeserve (I picked up a free CD from Dixons. There was no PC World in our area at the time).
On the net, I can't recall the first few sites I came across, but there was one which used to have 1-liner ads with a contact number displayed.
The very first escort I called was an American Porn Actress called Chase, based in London. Never saw her though.
Over time in approx 2000/2001, I came across the other site that cannot be mentioned, and it was the review section which interested me the most.
The very first review that got me to go and see her was for a mid-20s girl called Rachel, who used to work at Executive Parlour in Halford Street, Leicester. A few of the reviews described her as a stunning blonde, so I went to see her, and was not disappointed.
I only searched for info on the other site, before finally taking the plunge and joining their Forum in 2004/2005. I then subsequently submitted a few "Field Reports" myself, including one for Natasha's Parties, the first of which I went to in 2005 (none of these Field Reports are active).
Same thing with AW. I must have come across it in 2003(?) only used it for accessing profiles, until 2004, when I registered on it.
In all that time, for whatever reason, Admin of the other site decided that you could not post AW links, although some discussion was allowed. This frustrated a lot of members including myself, as we could not openly discuss AW or any of the girls on it. As AW was becoming THE main source for seeking WGs, IMHO using that forum became pointless if you could not discuss AW. So initially we started to exchange info by PM. Later on I created a "club" where I became the main point of contact for approx 30 punters based in the East Mids/ West Mids region, whereby everyone would submit their AW reports to me only, and then I would pass on this info to all the other members by email, bcc'ing them all in. None of them were aware who the other members were. This worked quiete well. This continued til a few years ago.
In the meantime, around 2011, one of our members mentioned UKP to me, which when I first checked out, decided not to join as there as not a lot of info for the East Mids region.
Matters came to head in Sept 2012 when the Admin on the other site decided to pull/delete a long, on-going thread about Louise1990 girls which he felt that it was being promoted, when in fact it wasn't.
Imran1234 (now a member on here as well) had started that thread, and for those who follow the same thread on UKP will be aware that there is a constant stream of girls joining/leaving that group and the tours they went on in various cities. For this reason members would update the thread for new info and it became quite a long thread, prompting the Admin to think that we were plugging the girls in that group, before it was pulled down.
I started a new thread, enquiring why it had been deleted. I got no response on there. Jimmyredcab (JRC to most of the older members) saw this thread and posted about my frustration on THIS site. This is when I then joined UKP to add to comment on that thread here on UKP. Later when I read the East Mids section, there was much more contents than before so I got hooked on it, and the rest, as they say, is history.
