Linda - Maidenhead, best massage but not much else

[samtor]

I'm posting this review a bit hesitantly.  I'm a bit afraid of too many people finding out about my favourite masseuse.  Right now I can book Linda pretty easily but if word gets out then I'm worried.    Also, Linda does no extras except HE.  But spending time on the forum here, I am seeing that a lot of you all do appreciate a real proper good massage and sometimes HE is plenty of punting.

I travel a lot with my work and I love a relaxing massage.  I'm happy to get cheap ones at Chinese storefronts or posh ones in luxury spas.  Linda has simply some of the best over all technique I've ever experienced.  She is firm and effective, but she also finishes with the most relaxing head and face massage (I often find that the best sports massagers don't do the relaxing face and head work).

I don't know her HE technique.  But I have been seeing her for years and we have become quite friendly.  I guarantee that she is not interested in any thing besides doing her job and doing it well.  Trying for more is the easiest way to piss her off.

I do a 90 minute session.  She charges £55, but I always give her £60.

She's been reviewed a few times before and all the reports are consistent - https://www.ukpunting.com/index.php?topic=157874.msg1710534#msg1710534

I'm just not able to see her that much with my current travelling and I know she works hard to make the money for her life.  I think she does have a smaller clientele because she is very limited on the extras and because she is quite business like in her demeanor.  But for people who really do appreciate a super professional MASSAGE, then Linda is definitely worth a try.

Surely this should be in a thread titled ‘adverts’ rather than in reviews?

I'm posting this Advert

Her adverts shit, your adverts shit, expensive for a wank

I don't know why you guys are throwing so much shade.  I thought it was helpful information.  Helpful about where to find a good massage, what to expect, how approach the SP.  Sorry that I'm glowing and positive about the SP.  I'm not sure what you have to say or who you have to be to get away with gushing reviews while others are criticized for them.  Reading the reviews of Linda, there seemed to be a lot of open questions about what she offered and what her service was like.  I'm just trying to help the forum and I am a big fan of what she does do on the massage table.

Well why not answer the questions you mention on the other reviews instead of creating an advert for her

I tried doing just that, but the site came up with a warning saying that since the others posts were older it was adviseable to start a new post.  I did some looking at posts trying to figure out how to post without incurring the wrath of the cynics.  I thought that I was not just filling in gaps from previous posts, but also adding a different perspective that hadn't been mentioned much (that is that her massage work is really great).  While this is a punting site, I have noticed lots of commentary about massage quality so I thought that massage itself was something a lot of people here would care about.

Sorry if I haven't done everything just right.  Trying me best to provide useful information.  I really don't understand where the line is between strong positive review for a great SP experience and a "advert".

Firstly, nobody wants to discourage new opinions and worthwhile info on Service Providers.  The fact that someone (not me although I did report it as I didn’t think it qualified as a review) moved it out of the reviews section highlights what is wrong with it.

I’d suggest that you try and avoid ‘I’m hesitant about telling you all about this wonderful girl’ type stuff altogether - you ARE telling us about her and that just makes your input seem unconvincing, OTT and fluffy.  Secondly, reviews are meant to be about a particular booking.  Yours wasn’t and generic conversation about a SP is best left to the ongoing parts of a thread following an actual review.  In terms of content, each to their own and I certainly wouldn’t try and say you should work to a template but you only need to read existing reviews to see what sort of info people are looking for...comms, location, the SPs looks, their attitude, services received etc.  Yes you offered a view on several of those areas but there was a lot of padding round it and it didn’t refer to a particular visit.

I hope you keep reviewing but members are only going to value your input if it adds to the intel and helps them make decisions about their own punts.  That, after all, is why we all come here - except for the touts, the voyeurs and the lurkers and I wouldn’t spend too long trying to play to THAT gallery

Also the idea that she can somehow be "your" girl is totally neurotic, just as when prostitutes put rubbish like "just for you" in their profile.

Veritas thank you for the considerate and helpful response.  I did write the "review" after a particular session, but since I had seen her many times I thought that I would be up front about it and share the full depth of my experience with her.  I have read many of the other reviews.  In fact, I recall other people making the quip about positive reviews leading to SPs becoming more popular and harder to get appointments for.  So I thought I would throw that comment in.

As I noted in the review, there's not much if anything sexy about her service which limits my ability to do blow by blow.  The primary reason I hesitated to review thought was the fear that I would be pounced on for any positive review.  I'm afraid that my fears were confirmed.  For someone looking for massage for massage sake with the bonus of HE, I think my review or "advert" is helpful information.  I'm grateful when people share their experiences of great service.

I appreciate your encouragement and will continue to contribute, but frankly I'm just going to wait until I have a Negative review, because anything else will be jumped on if I get the least bit colourful in my enthusiasm.

You didn't.

I think he interpreted that from these quotes from your advert/review :

I'm posting this review a bit hesitantly.  I'm a bit afraid of too many people finding out about my favourite masseuse.  Right now I can book Linda pretty easily but if word gets out then I'm worried.   

But I have been seeing her for years and we have become quite friendly.  I guarantee that she is not interested in any thing besides doing her job and doing it well.

It also indicated to me that you feel you have some sort of special relationship ? - Yet :

I don't know her HE technique.

I read the other review - it's barely a positive - if you enjoy her services crack on mate, if you decide to post about them on UKP, an open forum don't be surprised if other members offer opinions.

I also thought Veritas gave you a great bit of advice - yet this post is a begrudgingly worded acknowledgement.

You totally don't get the eithos of this site do you ? You sound way too sensitive to be posting here, head over to UKEscorting instead maybe ? I did like the phrase "colourful in my enthusiam." though, although again I interpretated this as "a bit delusional".

I do a 90 minute session.  She charges £55, but I always give her £60.

Oh and your a 'tipper' - frowned upon around here

The "special relationship" is being a "regular".  A common status between SPs and a number of punters.  It was relevant this case because people were wondering if she was distant or just was having a bay day or just had bad chemistry.  My point was that being a regular she is about as warm to me as anyone and even then it is not very warm.  So not "YMMV", but you will almost definitely always get a detached attitude.

I read the other review - it's barely a positive - if you enjoy her services crack on mate, if you decide to post about them on UKP, an open forum don't be surprised if other members offer opinions.

Happy for people to have other opinions.  But I am also allowed to justify what I wrote and why I wrote it.

My reply was a complete acknowledgement with an explanation for the things that I appeared to differently from his advice.

I thought that the ethos was to help fellow punters avoid bad SPs and help fellow punters find good ones.  Sorry if I missed something else.

Sorry about that.  I didn't know that was a bad thing.  It seems like small thing in this case.  I wanted to be honest about what I paid, but also state the real price she charges.

Thank you too Dr. Conners.  I am interpreting this comment of yours as an effort to help and it does in a number of ways.

Thanks for this, it was better than counting sheep to kick off my Sunday afternoon siesta.

Much appreciated.
