How far do you travel and has it changed?

[TomTank]

I used to look within a 70 mile radius, shrunk to about 40, and these days can't be bothered with more than 20 ..... it's very limiting though ....

[Watts.E.Dunn]

Used, in my pre UKP days, go to London espically Chelsea cloisters car knew its way there!, could get there park outside pop into that uber expenseive garage and then come home and think nothing of it.

These days mainly a local massage parlour more or less given up with local escorts these days plus the advaning years!

[Upsndowns79]

I normally look within 1 hour (ish) but it’s got to be either a SP who I’ve experienced or a well reviewed SP for me to consider that far.

I have travelled slightly further in the past but not much.

[Dufdave]

I used to travel up to 2 hours away but due to  unable to drive stay local now

[diver ted]

I used to travel from Glasgow to Edinburgh, in the days when Glasgow had no saunas, unlike Edinburgh they were allowed to remain open

Had many a good time in places like Carol's

[danielisi]

Generally I’ll stick to easy to access areas for me (which in London is most of it minus some of the outskirts, with a preference for central London or West.

However for more niche girls I’ll probably start looking more in that 70/80 radius. Particularly for goth/alt/emo/egirl type looks, natural redheads and genuine Japanese, which I have found to be much harder to find (or sometimes crazy expensive). Obviously that’s possible in London too and travelling further doesn’t guarantee cheaper, but I’m just willing to cast the net wider.

Once I scratch those itches I’ll probably revert to easier locations.

[MichaelDBW]

I'm near Brighton and until 5-6 years ago there always used to be enough variety locally to suit me. It's almost always London now though .. Partly because of all the options in the capital, partly as I'm now single and I've got a lot more freedom/spare time, but also travelling up for a punt adds another level of anticipation for some reason 

[Colston36]

With age comes sloth.  24 years ago I used to fly to Munich to see a special High Tide lady in Munich for hours, and well worth the investment. More recently I'd  spend as much as 4 hours travelling to see someone special in the UK. Now it's rarely more than an hour.

[RandomGuy99]

I used to travel up to 2 hours. Now it's 30/40 minutes as I can't be bothered with the traffic

[Jameson20]

25/30 miles is my limit, otherwise you spend longer driving than punting (assuming you're a half hour guy like me.)

[RedKettle]

Frankly these days she has to be on my route somewhere!!

I used to love Brighton in the pre-internet days ..... phone box cards were brilliant

[Stevelondon]

As MichaelDBW says. Sometimes the anticipation is a great part of the punting travel.

Nowadays I’d probably only travel a fair way if I had seen the SP before and so knew the experience was worth the distance.

[signy]

I used to travel widely for work, but that has now come to an end. So seeing SPs far from home has also dropped off markedly. It was common for me to check the regional boards for everywhere south of the M62 and sometimes beyond; now it is mostly just East, Southeast and London. Even within those areas, if it is going to me more than an hour to travel, I need another reason to visit.

[jamiekinkxxx]

I'm a really lazy fucker and generally only host at my place nowadays 

[Maak]

I travel 20 mins drive to surrounding towns or London, about 1.5 hrs drive.

[mr.bluesky]

I normally look within 1 hour (ish) but it’s got to be either a SP who I’ve experienced or a well reviewed SP for me to consider that far.

I have travelled slightly further in the past but not much.

Likewise, no more than a 1 hour drive away. If you spend longer on the journey than time spent in the room then it isn't really worth it imo. Living in the West Midlands it's pretty handy to punt in and around Birmingham , Leicestershire or Northamptonshire but I wouldn't drive any further. Like Jameson20 says no more than 30-35 miles for me.

[jamiekinkxxx]

I'm a really lazy fucker and generally only host at my place nowadays 

But I will occasionally travel, but max 30-45min into anywhere in zones 1 or 2 in London

[poundstock]

Based centrally in the West Midlands and with my senior citizen railcard and time on my hands I would happily travel anywhere in the country. Ullswater, Newcastle upon Tyne, Yorkshire, London, Cardiff. Almost anywhere on the mainland. The willingness to travel enabled me to meet up with some delightful ladies in faraway places. Distance was never an obstacle. Personal circumstances have changed and I haven’t even got a railcard now.

[poundstock]

I forgot to mention the Wirral. Always happy to travel 120 miles to meet up with the delightful Emily57 before she retired.

[simon07]

I used to travel up to 80 miles to visit places Like Annabellas and MKE (Milton Keynes). Even went to Leeds to see hot agency girls for nearly a decade.
Now it is around 40-50 miles and I have stopped going to the above agencies as it is the same tired old lineup post Brexit/Covid times. It is hard to find hot Aw gals now unless they tour in my area.

I am not that bothered about chasing skirts now.

[JMitchell]

20-30 miles max!

[TallnHung]

I travel quite a bit with work.
So normally look where I'm working and havec  few regs in those areas too.
Otherwise it's 20 miles or at most an hour but only for an hour session.

[newhere456]

I generally try and stay as local as possible.  Within 10 miles is preferable although I have punted further afield if it happened to be where i was staying or en-route. 

Most important for me is to always have an alibi - so I stick to places where I have a plausable reason to be.

[Plan R]

Had a reg in Ealing (60miles) for a good few years (5+) and used to drive there from Essex about twice a month.
2-3 hours depending on the day/time and as others have said - I think my car new it's way there in the end.
The drive was a bit of a mission but I was horny as hell so didn't really notice it/got used to it.

This hobby is definitely habit forming and me being me, the lack of a reg has meant I've gone off the boil for the last few months.
I'm kind of looking for a new reg - but preferably somewhere in Essex.

[Coriniumstud]

Try to stay within an hours drive, in case I get radio silence when I arrive

[Cheltclient]

Used to be an hours drive. But these days, less inclined to as there’s not lots of alluring options to justify it.

[mh]

Work has so few meetings in person now that it no longer provides opportunities for travel. So my distance for a punt has very much reduced.

[myothernameis]

But when it comes to holidays, and going abroad, depending where I fly from, I might have punt in London.  Over the years, have made arrangement for a escort outcall to my hotel, but now a days, just venture to a Chinese massage shop

[Pleiades]

I used to look within a 70 mile radius, shrunk to about 40, and these days can't be bothered with more than 20 ..... it's very limiting though ....

Depends on the sp, have a few regulars that are 70 miles from me in both directions, though only do long bookings if visiting those and usually book a Hotel to spread it out so I can see multiple ladies to make it worthwhile.

[WelshClipper]

At least 2 hours away from home, never nearer. I use a senior railcard and can basically go anywhere.

But I stay away from locals, too much risk for me of explaining where I am. It happened once and I never want to repeat with my mind panicking and racing to come up with a reason

Only downside is there is an escort locally who I fancy the pants off …….but a small sacrifice for the greater good.

 

[wannabe]

Like some others above, I used to travel the country for work, so had a lot of opportunity. With the pandemic, and with meetings now possible via Zoom and Teams, that all came to an end. So now I punt quite rarely (but review when I do punt). I do miss the old days of travelling.

[Demon8]

The eastern east anglia region is abysmal today. Norfolk and Suffolk were always slim pickings so you were forced to go to Essex when one the decent girls wasn't about. All of the decent girls from Norfolk/Suffolk have left now.


Minimum drive is now an hour for anything worthwhile. I'm of the mind now where I'd rather pocket that money into an imaginary pot I use when I've travelled out of this desert and can then afford a threesome (yet to happen) or an outcall for a decent amount of time.

I will only travel for as long as the punt is. It's the more comfortable way to live. I hate driving though.

[mr.bluesky]

East Anglia- is that an hour drive on your tractor by any chance 
( sorry couldn't resist)

[starman]

I try to keep it under an hour otherwise my pants are soaking by the time I get there.

B4bcock, I’m just an eager beaver…or eager for beaver. One of the two.

[mark3611]

I go all the way to Staffordshire to see an escort I see 3 times year. I  used to stay overnight in the area, but with some cheap train fares it's a day trip.

From London I have gone over the border to Essex for a punt or 90 minutes by train to West Sussex.

These days I'm going over to Kent for a Pump and Dump.

[webpunter]

Doing business is changing more use of the interweb emails etc
Roll it back a decade / further & it was more face to face meets
On a day out i'd try & organise my meeting(s) around a R&T
& if on the M1 pit stops @ SoftTouch in Northampton or Ego in MK were the order of the day

Nowadays its not worth me driving to Northampton / MK so this is one change for me
Back in the day i found the pit stop routine made for some interest & the requirement for some organisation
PP&PPPPP - proper preparation & planning prevents piss poor punting
Book ST / Ego the day before & remember to call & confirm in the morning 

Now more local excursions 45 mins an hour tops
I'll make an exception now & again and my thought process for some variety is to do more of these

I will combine business & punting on trips up north with an overnight stay / two nights
Manchester is my fave wall-to-wall options
Leeds seems to be up & coming + i can also mix in a trip to Bell End Road whats not to like

A short european business trip brings about obvious opportunities
Accompanied by solid research on here, thanks UKP for intel on most cities

I've also been doing more train trips, bizzo stuff with no overnight stay
The change is that i'll be more cautious as to which SP / massage burd it is
As i'll have a bag laptop etc so its pick a dead cert reliable safe as houses
Likewise with european travel UKP has invaluable intel on cities i'm not that familiar with
Even down to what might seem like minor details distances from the train station
If you're local it doesnt make any difference however when travelling it certainly helps with getting sessions lined up
& there is something exceptionally pleasing having a celebratory drink on the train heading home with perhaps a well earned snooze   
Let the train take the strain 

Assuming travelling by train [or indeed just being in whichever city it is] uBer means no hassle getting to where the burd is
& more importantly back to the station / hotel etc rather than how the fuck do i find a taxi [from this relative shit-hole] ?
Deffo a +ve change

There's always a tractor, and the roads are all single carriageway, so I may aswell be in a tractor because im always behind one!

(If its not a tractor its an elderly individual far past their due date on being able to drive)

[thebastard]

I've travelled an hour but if I'm going south I would usually combine with a work trip. I am contemplating a trip down to see some Divas though but feel like it makes the anticipation and build up so much greater. You have then got the long drive back after.

[pythondan]

Around 30 miles for me. I used to do a lot more travelling but now do most meetings and work via video calls. I don't miss the driving but do miss the punting opportunities of travelling around the country. I used to love popping into parlours like Sandys. My customers in the North West area got such good service from me the company gave me an award and bonus 

That paid for some memorable meets including a threesome!

[Iamforreal]

I have ladies in my HL from all over the country...hopefully I will see most of them, when I am going I usually book a hotel and have an outcall in the evening, nice meal and 2nd day a bit of sightseeing and then coming back home...being single when I'm off work I can take my time and no need to answer to anyone where I am and what I am doing.
What puts me off is the driving...it's stressing me out if I don't know the area 
 

[Punterperson1971]

I have 2 local to me each way 10 min walk and 1 in town I pass through every day and 1 in the area I work and then another 25 minute walk and another 20 minutes on bus

At my age it has other connotations, so I always take a spare pair of pants  -  just in case!....

[Mstar86]

In the car I think I’d do up to an hour/ 1 hour 15mins max, but on public transport it would have to be on my route because I’ve had a SP flake on arrival recently after 1.5hr travel to get to her! (Review will come!)
