I started my punting adventures in the mid-seventies. With four children at home, and an OH who was only enthusiastic for sex when she wanted to get pregnant, I was interested in finding other outlets.
I always worked in London, and at that time had a bike at the office. This made it easy to make lunch-time sorties at no cost. On one of these sorties, I spotted a shop front with a curtained off window, advertising ‘massage’. After several times passing by, I plucked up the courage to go in and ask the cost of a massage. I think it was £3.50. I scraped together the cash, and went back one day for my first massage. The masseuse was young, slim and pretty, and I was very disappointed when my half hour was up, and there was no hint of a happy ending. Although I was very nervous about asking, I did ask, and was told that next time I could have a HE, and that a tip would be appreciated.
After saving the cash, I went back and had a massage with HE, which at my age then was very easily achieved although the girl was still fully clothed. I think I gave her a 50p tip. That was it – I was hooked!
I then found an advert for massage in a flat in the Park Lane area, and had massages with happy endings, but again with fully clothed masseuses. After a while, they went topless, but nothing more. It turned out that the owner was the legendary Josie. She went on to open several other places, and over the years I visited them all. I got to know Josie and her daughter so well that if they were not busy, they would often let me have a ‘second round’ for free. Just the ‘tip’ for the girl. The girls were happy because there were always several of them to choose from, and it was better for them than sitting around doing nothing. Those were the days…….
I must have made over 1000 visits, and seen 200+ girls, with a decided preference for Orientals. On the way, there were quite a few long-term regulars.
Now that I am retired, I only rarely get a chance to ‘escape’ for a punt, but I still enjoy this great hobby, despite the need for a ‘little blue pill’. Happy punting!
