I can never really be sure whether to take these threads seriously. There used to be loads of them but cynical old me thinks they look like a lazy pretext to tout.
I’d say to anyone new to London, or to this board, or punting or all three - either, do plenty of research, read the back catalogue of established fuckers on here who seem like minded, or start at House of Divine (google them) as a not-to-exorbitant back-up.
Certainly do NOT follow a “recommendation” of some random fucker on here without subjecting his track record to some scrutiny.
