I think that Birmingham has a decent amount of good value for money EE girls with a decent rep, but a lot of the favourites have gone away lately (Victoria, MissOlivia, Elegant Michelle etc) which does feel like it's left a bit of a hole in the scene. A lot of the more well known girls, that are still around have limited availability or are awkwardly located, and there does seem to be a lack of good new ones coming through. For example, the Hippodrome Polish/Czech group has really gone to shit of late, it would seem.
As for British girls, well, there's some well known girls, but a lot of the more popular ones I do think take the piss a bit with their pricing. I just can't justify paying a £150+ for an hour of her time, I could pay it if I wanted to, but I just won't do it, matter of principle. There's the Thai group, but well, see baseball_99's post above. I enjoyed Fabulous Anya when I saw her, but she's not amazing or anything like that, and I can't stomach the thought of dealing with that dumb ass maid for that group again. The Divas group, well don't get me started on my thoughts on that group
. There's the Masshouse Czech girl's, but unless I'm wrong, seems like Lia and Amanda are retiring.
There's parlours, such as Blue Ice and Erotic Studios which I've tried recently, I have met some interesting, new to me, girls there, but it's a very hit & miss way to punt.
So, I can empathise with your post, Ming. Sometimes I wish I lived in either Newcastle, Nottingham, Manchester, Bristol or London. Although there is a similar thread on the London board with the punters there lamenting the lack of talent around at the moment. So I guess it's a common complaint around the country. It did seem like things were better here in Birmingham a few months ago though, so my thoughts are that I'll just have to sit it out and wait for some decent new talent to be discovered, and just try to make the best of what is around me at the moment.
