Expect every SP prices to go up.
On the one hand, prices probably haven't gone up a hell of a lot in a long time, so they can make a case for it being necessary. And if it means the punter can be secure in the knowledge the girl hasn't been trafficked ( I don't like the idea of a girl being duped into a profession like this and I don't like the idea of unwittingly finding myself embroiled in it either ) then there is a case for that too.
What clouds the issue is it is very different from other professions. There are few other professions most of us could do where you can chalk up this kind of hourly rate. Maybe if you are a top lawyer or something like that, or a senior consultant, but for most ordinary folk it is a lot of money. Also, if there is work which needs to be done in our jobs, invariably many of us are in a position where we just put in a bit of extra time to get it done and it makes no difference to our income. Some people get some kind of overtime bonus, but often they are already in the worst paid jobs so there really needs to be some encouragement to get them to do overtime. If an escort puts in an extra hour on any particular day, she is getting ( now at Annabella's ) an extra £140, previously an extra £130/120 with previous prices settings.
All this would probably be being debated less if the quality was as it was but most people seem to agree this is not the case. I would say the first seven or eight years of punting for me ( I began in 2001 ), whilst I enjoyed most punts, only two or three of them are really standing the test of time in terms of being memorable. The numbers over the last five years or so probably aren't much higher. But between about 2010 and 2018 I had a lot of very memorable experiences. There seems to have been a downturn.
I'll probably end up with little choice and having to go back on my words but I don't feel enthused at the moment.
