(1) How many years a punter? (2) Is punting Better now? (3) Best ever punt?

[oldrainbow]

(1) 20 years

(2) punting was better when i started definitely, use to enjoy the thrill of finding notices in newsagents around London.
Back home in north wales now hardly ever punt!

(3) best was a threesome i had in the sun & steam sauna near euston station just when i started punting! I do miss that place

[Markc]

I been punting for 30 years ( first punt 4 weeks before l got married )

These days they are more women offering services with easy access with the internet.
I remember the days when it was just a women’s name and a phone number in the local
paper and you phoned up for info. Also there were a couple of parlours in Cheltenham
where you phoned up and made a appointment and the girls would come in one by one
and then the maid would come back and see who you wanted. Strangely l really enjoyed that.
For that type of experience l now go to Manchester but now you book who you see in advance
after seeing their pictures online.

Best punt was Isabelle in 2019 in Cheltenham.

[itk]

1. 27 years (or thereabouts)

2. No. Definitely worse for me. Yes, there is far more choice but 90% of that is EE, bait and switch or very disappointing punts.  When I first started punting you obviously had the danger of being seen by cops when around the RLD of Norwich, but for me it was all part of the punt. Having to be on the look out for them, plus then an evening began driving around the three or streets and picking the best looking hits out. (Back then, it wasn’t uncommon to count up to 15 or 20 girls working).
It was then a case of picking who you wanted and doing the deed. Bonus of this was that you saw her before arriving at the door and seeing something that doesn’t resemble the photos you get these days on AW.  Yes it had it problems and disappointments, but looking back it was far more enjoyable than todays state of affairs.
3. Best 2.  Firstly JenniferDelaney25 who used to punt in Ipswich, fake tits were a bit of a hatchet job but everything else was perfect with her. Definitely had EAS with her.
  Secondly, would be a MFF with two girls from Sandy’s Superstars near Manchester (Northenden I think near a chippy)  Was a full on session, both girls were full on with me as well as each other.

[Festa]

Here goes.

First punt : 1974..... 46 years ago

Is it better now : YES. Seedy phone boxes with multiple cards to choose from. Bloody grim compared to now.

Best Ever : A now retired, very posh lady with a wonderful body. The only escort I have visited more than twice.

Overall, I will channel Frank and say 'regrets I have had a few but too few to mention'

[Festa]

Correction...48 years!

[southcoastpunter]

1) how long? - depends what you count as "punting" . i started with a massage with extras that then became FS somewhere in the early 1990's and moved to more traditional punting about mid 90's so lets say about 26 years.

2) better or worse? better in some respects (much better information about SP's and contact methods) but worse in others (more scammers and sergie's around ).

3) best punt? next week! (ok i am an optimist!! haha). to date, (and excluding ladies from Seeking) Jessica Prado a Portuguese lady from about 12 years ago. She was only around for a year or two but was such a sexy lady and so enthusiastic and passionate!

[Colston36]

1. Nine years. I had about two years at the turn of the century, then stopped till 2017

2. Since I started being picky about what I liked and thanks to UKP, better.

3. Best ever was a kinky 4 some with two girls and another guy in Totnes 4 years ago. One of the girls has retired; tragic, she was the most imaginative ever.

[Sibiu]

Started in 1979. Wife not interested in sex.

Today is much better than before the internet . Looking for ads in local papers and making calls from phone boxes was a nightmare. Sites like AW, despite its issues, are a godsend.

Best punt? Usually the older ones over 35. However I used to see a Ukrainian Cambridge Uni student 10 years ago who was amazing. She’s now a solicitor- the lawyer sort!

[Sibiu]

1) 15 years
2) No
3) Claudia Delena

I saw Claudia Adele a twice in Cambridge and she was certainly one of the best.

[lamboman]

3 years
Much worse now
The I think sadly retire Miss Scarlett

[alabama1]

1. 5
2. No
3. Sweet Pola

[stampjones]

1 just under 40 years
2 yes - knowing what the girl looks like beforehand is useful and seeking is heaven
3 probably a phone box girl on edgeware road I saw in the 90s who had the best tits ever. But tomorrow i’d probably have a different answer

[dryanse8]

1. 12 years

2. Worse now due to the levels of escort entitlement with entry level fees.

3. Biba (Diva escort)

[tp69]

1) Over 25 yrs

2) Better now. UKP is a brilliant resource 

3) Best ever is easy. I was in my twenties. I had a Chinese girl, sexy as hell, over to my flat for an outcall. I'd paid her for an hour but she ended up staying for around 5-6 hours and wouldn't let me give her any additional money. We had 5 rounds of unbelievable sex, had a shower and a bath together, and she stayed for dinner. Her 'madam' had been waiting in the car outside, but after about 2 hours she went outside and told her to go back to the office. It was a one-off as I never saw her again - can't even remember why as I was in the country for a few months on business.

[rje102]

1) twenty years on and off - currently coming back to hobby

2) Better (ease of finding) and Worse (scams/switch&bait)

3) Best ever....either
a) three way with Sexy Vanessa and Ava Devine for several hours in London (including a poor and surprised bell boy who delivered food)...pure filth.....as near to being in a porno as you can get
b) Rita Faltoyano (beautiful and so sweet)

[Aldebaran]

33 years

Not sure whether it's better or worse, it's certainly different. Nowadays you can expect DFK and OWO as a matter of course, but also there are far more indifferent and poorly performing WGs than I remember from back in the 90s.

Best ever? Definitely Alison of Middlesbrough in the 90s, closely followed by her friend Margaret. Both long retired. Today's "escorts" pale in comparison.

[Danj89]

1) 11 years
2) worse
3) met a regular her friend was thinking about escorting and she asked me if i would be interested in seeing her, i said yes so she called her friend around, did a round with my reg, followed by a round with her friend, followed by a duo with both, it was totally epic.

[Razor Boy]

1) 21 years with a break of 5 years around 2010-15

2) Better due to the info (Good & Bad) that enables a hopefully good decision on SP choice. Since Covid that choice has narrowed due to less numbers of good SP's around

3) Dead heat between Farrah Indie in Cardiff and xHannahx in Wolverhampton...two totally different body types but both provided an utterly fantastic filthy time

[Torqy]

1 5 years
2 Better, AW cross referencing UKP really helps
3 Little_Melissax in Edinburgh, she was filthy but I was a little green and despite seeing her 3 times I never got to work my way through the entire menu of debauchery before she retired …..

…. Anyone else feel like they have unfinished business with WG?

[Dennis T Menace]

1) 12 years
2) Better, mostly due to my gained experience but also sites like this (thank you!)
3) Laura Superstar - once I got to meet her.

Returning to this thread after I posted 2 years ago before lock down...

Been punting now 45 years  been though 3 serious realtionships  punted ...After this lock down Id say punting was the Golden time just before Brexit for me cash and gals were not a problem. In my younger days Soho Walk ups were fantasic it was posible to shag around the world in the 80s and 90s now its Roms calling themselfs .....???

Best Shag Karen of Karens Cocktails although recently Camel toe Anglica and her large clit has been great fun 

[limarasa9]

1) 1 month (I am feeling like a new born baby now) 
2) Clearly not enough experience to answer this
3) Not yet 

[ik8133]

1) 1979 aged twenty, then once after, and then not again until I was in my early fifties.

2) Don't know, really only have punted in the last 12 years.

3) A Sugar Baby I saw a while back!

[Geko12]

1. 7 Years

2. Better when I started...

3. Lindsey/Elle/Busty Laura (All three sadly retired)

[Inbetweener]

1) 26 years

2) Looking back punting was a lottery when I started. The Sport newspaper was how I found punts. Bullshitting receptionists making out every girl was a Pamela Anderson lookalike. My favourite period was 2002 - 2012.

3) Impossible to pick one. Had some awesome meetings with Rebecca More when she used to work out of West Drayton. Josephine James, Sheila Grant, Platinum Cindy, Simply Louise and Charlotte Scott have all given me some memorable moments too.

[boardyhell]

better then ,barracuda had some great girls susie etc
Emily creme

[Bloodymary]

1. 14 years  - first punt was at the Bunny Lounge with some hot Eastern European

2. Better now for me

3.  Really difficult call.   Only done anal as a punter and had amazing anal with Shanelle and Silver Monica.   Phoneix Parties towards the end of the parties has given me some amazing experiences where I’ve had 2/3 girls taking care of me.    For GFE experience, Simply Louise has always been great.  If I had to relive any experience, it would be 45 minutes I had alone with Karlie Simon at a quiet Phoneix party - just an incredible fuck

No. The golden parlour days of Manchester are long gone.

Plenty, but I always remember Nikki from The Bunny Club in Bolton fondly. Also an AW girl I met in Birmingham, must be 10 years ago now. Hungarian called Nicky Parker.

[Home Alone]

No. The golden parlour days of Manchester are long gone.

I know what you mean by that, Clitheroelad. In my first couple of years, I was like a kid with a new hobby - celebrating the Ex having pissed off by visiting loads of them - but in retrospect, I felt like I'd graduated to 'proper' punting once I found sites like AW - with all its imperfections. At least, I had a wider choice; and best of all, no "knock on the door" - usually nearer to 25 mins, than half an hour - to tell me time was up.

In my Parlour Days, the two I enjoyed best were Zoe from Sandy's and Belinda at Club 24 in Cheetham Hill. Seeing Indies since 2006, the two I remember most fondly are Lustylush (RIP) and Sarah Jayne Leeds.

[Juankerr]

1. 27 Years.

2. Information is easier to find now thanks to the internet but I'd say punting is worse now due to a lack of quality choices in Birmingham and over the top prices.

[DrGFreeman]

1 I first paid for sex in Thailand in the late 90s. But didn't do so in the UK and regularly enough to consider myself a punter until about 2001. So im going to say about 20 years

2 The scene in the provinces in 2001 was mostly street prostitution, sport ads, escort agencies or in some places massage parlours. Disscussion forums existed, but few girls advertised online. The current situation is a vast improvement with everything internet based. However, the period 2008 to maybe 2012/3 was the highwater mark for me - the market was flooded with good quality girls.

3 best punt ? No idea

[paul_tall_]

1) 30 years
2) Better now due to the internet, reviews etc back then news agents windows, local rags or telephone boxes in london were just more hit and miss, still recall the sitting in a room with the maid whilst another was with the girl and being ushered into kitchen etc when they left, doesn't tend to happen in my experience so much now. However less reasonably priced british girls and no longer as being in my 50's am i looking for that milf experience though i have now got to the phase of not really wanting someone below 25
3) There was a girl based on the south coast outside Brighton where i was working in the week about 98/99 who was finishing uni and we just clicked, probably saw her almost weekly for about 8/9 months until the contract i was on finished, name escapes me now, i then moved abroad and we lost touch.

[denneboom]

(1) 22 years although the pandemic has put me into a long sabbatical.

(2) Punting is easier, today because of reviews, the internet, and a generally better knowledge and wisdom. Also I have more money and my own car so there is more choice, accessibility. However when I started there were zero foreign girls. None.

(3) A mixed race lady called Tia at Blue Ice in Birmingham (Now closed) I deeply regret not seeing her more than the two times I did. All services offered and carried out with enthusiasm - true GFE experience   

[theblade]

35years    But due to financial restrictions not for last 8 years

Better now with Internet easier to research
.
Loved the early days of Amateur Facials 2002/03 with “Dee”

1-1 punt   Rebecca More 2012/2013 before she disappeared up her own arse.

Better with the addition of UKP to filter AW profiles
Woofie

[FiveKnuckles]

1) 1 year

2) I got better searching profiles. ukp reviews have definitely helped 

3) Milla Perez    sadly her profile is now used by another girl.

[one eyed panda]

25 years

Its easier now in some ways but things have changed. In 2000 a small town like Rushden had 5(!) parlours.

Ask me tomorrow, after about 800 punts the answer will be different. But I usually quote a freelance Thai/Chinese girl I met on the street in Hongkong, 2005, after a delayed flight screwed my itinerary. Complete luck. Unusually big plastic tits for an asian, looked like a barbie, fucked like mad, no holes barred. Brought me croissants and coffee the follwoing morning, later I fucked her in the disabled toilet on Victoria Peak.

[Dave82]

1. 1 year
2. Couldn't say. AW and UKP are a great help
3. Yang Yang (so far)

[jeezyuk]

1. 6 years
2. It’s worse now but Ukp still helping
3. My best punt of all time must be my first TPC visit

[catweazle]

1.  44 years

2. Neither; its different. Initially "massage parlours" were simply brothels (I use the term loosely,  as often there was only 1 girl). You turned up, paid your  money to the maid, went in to the room, had ( usually) a bj and a shag.

Nowadays, thanks to t'interweb there's  much more variety.  Massage parlours do give massages (albeit usually with 'extras'). There's the indy girls and the rotating door places.

3.  Hard to pick just one.  Sometimes thr rubbish punts  stick in the mind more than the 5* ones

I cant understand how you can say there were no foreign girls back then. Are you talking about the UK?

[Consideringamovetomemphis]

1. 4 years

2. Definitely worse now, even in my short experience. Home ground is dire and my trips to better areas fewer and further between. Oh, and £100/ hh for no reviews and limited services!? 💸💸💸

3. Angelwings84 in Leeds, External Link/Members Only managed to catch her a couple of times before she ditched FS for massage/ HE

This is the reason I stick to house of divine and Milton Keynes escorts

Long abandoned tpc and aw indies

The game’s dying out. It was fun while it lasted

[supersammy]

1) 4 years punting
2) Better because I got better at finding value for money.
3) Tough to choose, possibly a Romanian called Alice in stoke. Great looks and chemistry. Ad no longer exists.

[lothian111]

1.25 years
2 Better, yes
3. Laura Hermansen

[jasonlondon]

1) 15

2) Its a lot more expensive. The best days were when Sandys was open. 14 hotties to choose from every day and loads of back up plans at other Manchester parlours. That said, I've met so many great girls that I still see as regularly as I can afford, and still have great fun on random parlour days. Whereas once, punting was hit and miss, it is very, very rare that I don't have a really enjoyable session now. Because I know exactly what, and who, I like. Long may it continue.

3) So many to choose from but I still go back to my first ever Sandys visit and round 3. A 2-girl with Claudia and Tori. The whole experience blew my mind. Still see the lovely Tori from time to time.
