It was before I found this website that I nearly ended up seeing a WG operating at Rutland Street.
Circumstances made the DE23 location quite useful. Looking through I had noticed the trend to same pricing and similar text which made me understand who was probably working out of the same flat but being on here really brought it to mind of the kind of operation it is.
The lady in Mansfield went by the name of 'Cuddly Julie' or similar. If I said she was an ordinary, bit overweight woman, typical for Mansfield and had never been a model, I'm not intending to be critical. This was 'Ad Mag' days where it wasn't until the door opened you saw what they were like. One of the best meets I've had because of way she was.
I find a meet where the WG says 'you're the best' or 'I'm loving this' to be very off putting because I know it's not true. Julie didn't bulls*it. More 'yes I can do that' or 'no that's not for me'. She made it clear on the first phone call that she was the shape she was and if that would put you off, to move on to someone else. I appreciated the honesty and clarity of it.
Part of the problem for me now is a combination of doing the research and time to make a meet. I used to work 'in the field' across Leicestershire, Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, was out most days, managing my own workload, so a quick sandwich when driving and an afternoon half hour punt worked well. Now I'm at a desk almost every day, hands free mobile with me when I'm not. Don't answer the phone and the 'safe working' policy kicks in.
Ahh, the days of mobile phones being so expensive to call that no one did and being 'in the field' all day making it possible for a punt or doing something like getting a battery for the car in lieu of the lunch break.
And Policemen are getting younger, those new plastic money notes are not right, etc...
