Longest without a punt

[boffin]

Just wondering what has been peoples longest time without a punt and why ? - Only asking because its been ages since I last had one 

5 years, was blissfully married .......

I suspect it's going to get longer for most of us, though the civvies seem frisky.

We'll see. I imagine some girls will just lower their fees.

Personally went about 18 months between punts. Purely down to lack of funds. Last one was 2 months ago, getting an itch for another but all this covid-19 talk is making me edgy about taking the risk.

[Malvolio]

The longest I ever went was ten weeks (neatly coinciding with a ten week gap in paid employment).  I think COVID-19 will be helping me set a new personal record as I simply can't see this shit being over with for at least three months.

3 weeks now or more depending on when the chines virus passes

Looks like it will year off the web cam model.

Once normality resumes i can't wait for a good tonsil tickling kiss.

As a punter 6 months.
This is an interesting time, will I quit for good? Maybe, it is quite easy, quit loads of time.

The only good thing about this virus is that it has forced me to stop punting. I have been trying for months to have a break due to the mostly dreadful offerings out there, the many time wasters and the frankly very ordinary who are charging ridiculous prices. I have been too weak to stop after many years of punting continuing out of habit rather than need so will see how i feel when this is all over. In the meantime i will use the time to do all the jobs that i need to do but keep putting off and look forward to all the money i will save.

And you're not the only one, luv2. I could have written everything that I've highlighted.

I'm old-fashioned enough not to do internet banking and I'm really looking forward to this month's statement arriving, what with it being also what I used to call the second of two consecutive 'bonus months': no Council tax; no water rates.

Time was when February and March were months when I could afford an extra punt, but no longer. I'm looking forward to an extra holiday in the - autumn? - sun this year!

I was like this too until a couple of months back when staff said they were no longer allowed to help me do bank transfers from the cashier desk.  Basically forcing me to get the new fangled app on my phone.

Have to admit though the digital banking is so convenient - you can check your balance or transfer money 24/7,  it only takes seconds, unless you have to set up a new payee, but even that only takes 2 mins to enter in their sort & account number.  Maybe you should think about it too Home Alone.  (I'd expect if you phone your bank they could talk you few the setup quite easily).

Trying to bring this back to punting,  I've not used digital banking yet for my new venture into the world of eThots  (using credit cards)  but I'm sure it's just a matter of time...

What do E-thots have to do with punting?

thot = That Whore Over There , so maybe a little bit more than the joys of digital banking.  Maybe a better way to link it to punting would be to say DB could also be used to pay deposits for a regular FS punt,  though I'd guess that Home Alone would not be the sort to pay deposits...

Thanks but no thanks, jesse. I've lost count of the times cashiers have tried to sell me on the idea.

I remember when a neighbour of the OH and mine - I must be going back nearly 20 years - who was an accountant told us that there wasn't enough security for his liking on internet banking. Although I moved away from the district after the OH pissed off, I occasionally bump into him in town and make a point of asking has he moved into internet banking. He hasn't. If that's good enough for him, it's good enough for me.

Maybe when SPs start giving me their Sort codes and Account numbers, . . !

Although please also see reply #62 above.

The "E" is important. Women like cam girls who exchange pornographic videos or photos of themselves for payment or exploit their looks in order to gain undeserved notoriety online.

As they say in Australia, "Too right, mate!"

I have been told that the first thing you see when you enter the main lobby of the NSA are three banks, apparently some of the workers there don't trust internet banking
