So, after a great review from just a few days ago (
https://www.ukpunting.com/index.php?topic=187258.msg1955418#msg1955418), I thought I would try a good massage with HR rather than a visit to a WG for a crap rub and a quick BJ. In fact I was rather looking forward to a good deep massage (hence the Thai over Chinese choice).
So I happened to be passing Stone, and about an hour before estimated arrival I gave them a call to check availability. No need to book I was told. Bargain, I hate being tied down to a time (in case of work phone call). Found a really handy car park 2-3 mins walk away (next to Stafford and Stone canoe club) which was long-stay and free.
Headed off to visit Dara. Nice looking shop from the outside, right on the junction of a busy road, but I'm not from these parts and all looks like an up and above board business, but ah bugger, there was another chap already stood inside. I headed for the town centre to kill 15-20 mins and returned. This time the shop is all clear.
Lady sat behind desk was the one from the main photo (
External Link/Members Only in pink), she spoke very good English, but looked a fraction older, and perhaps not so made up as the photos, and was slim and attractive enough (but boy what a massive nose!!!). She asked if I called earlier and I said yes. Asked if I could be seen immediately, she vanished off to the back for a min or two and agreed. Politely asked if I could pay in advance, so I handed over £40 for a 1 hour massage.
At this stage I neither enquired or offered to pay more for extras.
Taken up two flights of stairs to a top room, all nicely decorated, looked clean and nicely presented. Stopped briefly enroute to visit the bathroom as I had downed a gallon of Costa not too long before (just as well as the relaxing music being played during massage was flowing water!!!!

)
Asked to undress whilst she left the room, so I derobed and readied myself.
The massage that followed was fantastic. Initially, this included being climbed upon and using knees and forearms to release tension in back and legs. About 30-40 mins on my front, then discretely asked to turn onto my back.
Throughout I was covered, but with just a hint of the crown jewels getting the slightest of airing and touch.
Certainly at times there was a distinct semi, which I am sure would have been evident.
Problem was, everything was up and above board, and at the end of the hour there had been no CC swipes or intimate touching! I did enquire at this stage about a HR/HE, but was very politely told that was not on offer, and very quickly she left for me to dress.
So, why a neutral rather than a negative?
The lady was very pleasant, and the massage was very good. I would even consider going back for another massage. But certainly I would have very much liked a HE. I suspect this lady is the boss/owner and therefore everything is up and above board with her, however, I wonder if the other ladies offer extras without the knowledge of the boss.
I shall return and the mission continues.
Now, out of interest....this was my first non WG encounter, and essentially my first FBSM so did I miss some vital cues that might have led to the HE? Should I have offered more or asked up front (which to be honest would have spoilt the encounter). Help please for a relative newby....
