I live 30 minutes from Leeds and considering moving closer to town
No, as I've punted, 6 to 10 min drive (depending on traffic) about 1.3 mile from homePerhaps, if you have the time, you could share via some reviews Of the punts you have had
I think it's too risky to punt on your own turf so half an hour is just right imo. If you drive then that's a massive bonus. I've refrained from seeing someone on my list as she was in the same town as me.
We live in a world where half the population don't even know the names of their next door neighbours. I live 10 minutes drive from a house where a rotation of Thai girls work, and even closer to an agency flat, and have punted several times in both without worrying about being recognised. Unless the venue was in the same street it wouldn't worry me.
