Thanks. I just posted a new review on a Leeds based WG. Hope this helps, too. though I don't know how far Leeds is from Hull if u are from there .
Speaking of Yorkshire, the lengthy the Yorkshire Ripper documentary on BBC was a gritty portrayal of punting scene in 1970s West Yorkshire. probably the same in all over the north.
the punting in the 1970s Britain was not for the faint hearted.
Basically, the punting is you go to a seedy pub and you will find many a full time and part time women in the game near or inside the pub. You pay her a fiver and have a quicky behind or inside the derelict and abandoned factories and go back to finish his pint.
Sutcliff claims that his hatred against prostitutes began when teenage Peter picked a woman but couldn't perform but she refused to refund. Later, they met in a pub and she humiliated him in front of everybody. The West Yorkshire police think this was fabricated because this would have meant the woman was telling the public she
was a prostitute and unlikely. it is unlikely by our 21st century sensitivity But it is not an unlikely in 1970s. It looks like staggering percentage of women, some married, in Yorkshire at that time were in the game. it was part of their culture.
A few years ago BBC was doing this documentaries on the only street in UK where street prostitutions is legal. They were gritty, too, in a different way. I was scared. I admire Yorkshire punters for their, I don't know how to say it, dedication.
