How close to home would you punt??

[OnTheSly]

I'm in a situation I never thought I'd find myself in; trying to arrange a punt and realising the lady lives within 10 mins of my place. Am not sure if punting too close to home is wise so thought I'd ask for some advice!

Usually I punt in town but it's quite a pain to get up each time, so thought I'd try someone I originally thought would be safely far enough away. On talking its apparent that it could be in a neighbouring village. Finding a local regular could end up being great, but the risks surely are greater.

Any advice much appreciated

I live in a city and I punt within 2 miles from my house as I have plenty escorts within a 2 mile radius from my house.
I find it is easier and less stressful than having to drive for about fourty minutes to a punt and then back .
I am not single but I reckon if the Escort seen you or vice versa you just wouldn't let on .
A lot will not agree with my way of punting but I am relaxed with it ...so far anyway.

. . . mmmm, well, I reckon it's more a case of how visible you are within immediate vicinity. Whilst you can always take efforts like booking on a heavy rainy dull winter's day & playing it low key but if you're as lucky a person as I am . . , life will kick you in the teeth. It can be an incredibly small world out there sometimes 
There is also the WG's integrity, which may well be beyond your control so do your research & if the WG has got good reviews & there is positive comments from users of this site . . , then it may be worth a shot. However, if you're known within the immediate area and you have a lifestyle to protect then I reckon it's a no brainer.  Personally, I'd give it a miss. 

I recently had a bit of a shock when I found out a WG I'd seen some time ago (30 miles away) had relocated to a shared house in the same road where I own a HMO. I won't be making house calls!

Neighbour is closest I would do.

[Steve57]

I normally punt about 20 miles away. There is a town about 10 miles from me and I would punt there if I saw a lady I particularly liked the look of.

The original question mentioned a neighbouring village. I don't think I would risk that as villages are much smaller than towns and cities. In villages people often know loads of other people and there can be a lot more gossip, so I would be reluctant to risk being seen.

Lodger not to your taste then?

[OnTheSly]

A couple of you make points about my biggest concern - being seen by someone I know. I'm not so worried about bumping into the lady as I have lots of friends in neighbouring villages and towns that I haven't bumped into for years!

At present all I have had is that she is "very close" to one of 3 villages/towns I mentioned I wouldn't be prepared to visit. But very close to this particular place could definitely be a massive town which I'd be fine with - but at early stages she wasn't specific.

I think if it was an outcall to a hotel 20 mins away, I don't think I'd have a problem.

I'll try and speak to her and see how things go.

Thanks for the advice so far, keep it coming!

If I am punting near to home I try and park the car around the corner away from the gals - do all the 'are you read,y can I come in stuff' away from the location so I don't end up sitting in the car trying to not look like a fellow waiting for the I am ready its flat x etc!!

I try and have a cover story already pre prepared - as to why I was going to that house etc, I try and look as though I am not going to a punt - not strolling along whistling or skulking around with dark glasses and a mac on! I always feel safer during the winter afternoons when there is less people out and about and its darker!

 Once the deed is over leave as quickly as possible - not Starsky & Hutch stylee ( reference for the kids) and pop to a local store for a coffee so you have a cover story that puts you in a different location pefrhaps 20 mins out but a difference that makes no difference, receipt with a time on is always good!

I salute your (healthy) paranoia sir.
However I've noticed I become fairly shameless by the "T minus 5 minutes"  stage 

5min before my most recent punt (reviewed), I was sitting in a large hotel lobby, playing with two phones
(regular + punting), while sporting a red face due to the punting biscuit I swallowed exactly 1hr previous.

The penny dropped when I saw the woman opposite give me a funny look.
Hotel, flushed face, 2 phones on-the-go..
You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes (and most women are), to work out I'm up to no good.
Just made me laugh really. Like I say - quite shameless just before lift off

Could work to your advantage as well, you go to see her, but not as a punter, but as a neighbour......who going to know you going to fuck her

My nephews and nieces are now all grown up in their 20's, and most of them have there own place, which there renting; so got to be careful, when deciding on booking an escort

Do any of them stay near by, awkward if there in the same flat

[GreyDave]

   I live in what can be described as HMO land I only know a few neighbours to nod to so when a pair of Dusky roms moved in to a HMO in next street and came up on AW I was straight round to shag the big of em  lose light clothing no worries about parking etc just up my street as the saying goes......fast forward 1 month after they moved in then out Asian landlord moaning out people banging on door at night  and not paying him

[Jonestown]

Just round the corner, took the dog for a walk one evening, tied it up to a lamppost and popped in for a quickie.

[catweazle]

Back in the days when the local paper carried poorly-disguised "personal" ads, I saw one for a new girl (the same adverts appeared, in the same order, night after night, so a new one stood out).

Rang her up, sounded good, ticked all my boxes, so made a booking. Then she gave the address, which was on the tiny cul de sac at the end of my road.......Which started three doors up. Took me all of 20 seconds to get there.

Don't do inbreeding...but each to their own...

[webpunter]

Haven't heard it referred to as that b4    Drink some water

while sporting a red face due to the punting biscuit I swallowed exactly 1hr previous.

A dead giveaway.  I've done this & when one of them rang - i tried to answer the wrong fucking one.  Both on vibrate.  Did i look a bell-end or what 

Hotel, flushed face, 2 phones on-the-go..

And to answer the question bout distance - a mile away.  Pondered for a few days the issue about seeing her on the high street.  It didn't happen & this concern soon passed.  She's since dropped off from AW & funnily enough i'm now thinking i wouldn't mind a chance encounter.  As long as on my jack..

[mrdiamond77]

I have punted in my home town once but there are not many girls to choose from, you can count them on one hand.  I usually punt at least 20 miles away but I would possibly punt in my home town again if I saw a girl I liked the look of, though I would draw the line at seeing a girl who was just a few minutes walk away.

[Jamboney]

I don't punt in the town I live in because the WG's here are far too expensive for what they offer so a "local" punt for me is about 30 miles away.

[robsatathome]

10 minutes walk to a flat used mainly by touring WG's. Different ones on an infrequent basis however  Have seen some hotties there sometimes 

[The_Don]

From another thread >  Playing Close to Home

I've punted a few (8+) W.G that are with 10 min's travel.

I've only seen 1 (she was a neg review as well) shopping in a local super market

1 place I shop is with in 2 mins walking distance, of a place I punt 5 different W/G. But never seen any of them outside that place

I would state its in the double figures now, with in 10 mins travel.

[The_Don]

I don't punt in the town I live in because the WG's here are far too expensive for what they offer so a "local" punt for me is about 30 miles away.

I mostly punt in London, but I'm some times willing to travel outside if a W/G is VFM.

Although as a London punter, there is also lot of choice that VFM, in the capital (IMO).

 

[OnTheSly]

... as a London punter, there is also lot of choice that VFM, in the capital (IMO).

I agree, and London is my normal hunting ground, but I'm rarely there for work so going up just for a punt adds 3 hours and about £50 to the experience. The idea of a 10 min drive is very appealing, especially this time of year!

From more recent messages, I now know where she is and it's definitely a safe area for me (don't know anyone at all there, and it's probably far enough away to never cross paths). Just need to get diaries aligned, which is proving difficult with both our day jobs!!

Thanks for the link to the old thread, going off to read that now!

[SJ772]

I'll punt within a mile of my home, but I guess as the wife approves and I don't care what my neighbours think I may be different.  I also punt in my work town, that makes me a lot more paranoid than near home as it could make work life interesting.  Had the wife not approved, I would say at least 10 miles.  New found fear is with an 18 year old daughter running into one of her old classmates. 

[KentAde]

Home in Kent, work in London....
Hence punt in the latter.

[sloshed]

HI,

Very interesting thread, I have been thinking about this myself.
As someone else has also mentioned, it's not a problem for me because my other half is OK about it.
We have been to lap dancing clubs together and have talked about having a threesome, although getting an ordinary girl to join us would be a pipe dream, hence they are referred to as unicorns.
We have talked about the possibility of an escort to make up the third but haven't done anything about it yet.

My issue would be what if a WG found out where I worked.
Let's say, for instance you were a manager of a local large chain supermarket, or worked for a local council for example, maybe surrounded by the public all day long, how far away would you have to punt?
If a WG you previously met up with came in to (the supermarket?) where you work would you be worried?
What is the reality of blackmail?
If your wife is OK with it then no threat there but what would your employer have to say about it?

There is a WG I would love to see, have wanted to for ages but I have seen her while I was at work, I recognised her from her profile pic, now I'm glad I never made her acquaintance.

The wife says I worry too much, lol!   

What do you think?


Cheers.

[Punter115]

The wife says I worry too much,

What do you think?

You Worry too much ...get stuck in , especially if you have the wife's blessing!
If you and your wife ever fancy having a fmm session although  I am a bit older I am available!

[Zweihander7]

Live in London and always punt as close to home as possible.

Reason being that before I did this maybe like 5% of the time I'd have arranged a booking with a WG, get to her place and then she wouldntt answer her phone anymore. So I'd end up standing on her street, freezing my arse off, having wasted as much as 45 minutes just to get there.

Now I punt no more than 15 minutes door to door from home, so I know even if the WG fobs me off, I havent wasted any time really.

[Zweihander7]

you saying you drive an hour just for a punt?

[cueball]

you saying you drive an hour just for a punt?

What's wrong with that?

I too drive for an hour max to punt.

[The_Don]

you saying you drive an hour just for a punt?

I've done 3+ hour round trips due to punts!

[mediumjoe]

Zweihander ,  I guess you live in a large city surrounded by available crumpet, which is why you think  it takes an hour to do 30 miles .  For us poor souls that live in the countryside 60miles is the limit, takes an hour.  The other thing is when we put a search in for an age range  with a 60 mile radius on AW only two pages come up and you can reduce that down to one or two girls that are suitable .  We all have our own punting problems don't we.  Joe
Just gone back  and realised you live in London, as I said we all have our problems.

[Lucky Luke 70]

I mostly punt when travelling for work, so very far from home. I don't intend to change that.

[stevedave]

I've punted 5 minutes walk from my house, and had no bother. I still see her occasionally when she's walking her dogs, and there's no issues.

One of my regs is set up approx 2 minutes walk from my office (she wasn't when I first saw her admittedly) and again, no issues.

Frankly, I reckon you could punt the woman next door and get away with it, as long as you're all singing from the same hymn sheet. But my neighbour is a munter, so she'd have to pay me 

[Silver Birch]

There are a couple of locals I would definitely like to hotlist, but a wg has to be at least 10-15 miles away from home 

[Home Alone]

I'm somewhere between the last two posts.

I live in a conurbation so can easily get to punts within 1/2 an hour.  Earlier this year, I visited a WG who lives about a couple of miles away from me and had a thoroughly enjoyable time with her.  The thing is I'm so gormless, as we say in these parts, that I could pass her in the street tomorrow and not recognise her!  And she now seems to be so popular, I might not get a booking with her for ages!

The thing is I just feel easier - safer?? - punting in a neighbouring town.

[OnTheSly]

Thanks for all the great advice guys. Didn't happen in the end, had arranged date / time / location then she asked for a picture....  Sorry love, who's paying who?!

Luckily have a reason to be in London later this week to scratch the itch!

Similar except I try to avoid more than a 10 min detour from wherever I'm driving to. Always have a Massage Parlour in mind ...just in case.

I'm getting the feeling that the suddenly dead phone problem is much worse in London?

[Gordon Bennett]

If I'm nipping out and about locally, not punting though, and bump into someone I know 500yds from my house it's completely natural and normal. They're not arsed where I've been or where I'm going are they? But, if I bump into someone 75 miles away from my patch it's more difficult to explain and they're far more likely to enquire why I'm there.
The only problem punting locally is if the SP is known and everyone knows what the chaps trudging in and out of number 47 are up to.
