Similar for me as back in the day I cabbed in Blackpool for about 17 years before managing to get out.
Although strangely enough my first ever punt was on Newcastle ave across the road from the ranch.
I mainly used the ads in the Gazette and had 3 favourites one was Cindy on Buchanan street the epitome of filth, another was a girl I think called Kristen who had a bit of hair lip but a very meaty fanny and was on Central drive opposite the library and one who had numerous names from Claudia to Nadine via Lisa who was in a big detached house on Hawes side lane facing Watson road.
