Me too, we’re about to go into phase 2. The media really is freaking people out. I have a friend who finally admitted he had it after randomly going quiet, he said day 5 was horrible he was struggling to breath etc and it hurt but by day 7 much better and now he’s doing fine. And basically said not to worry. Even with the breathing and lung thing he described it as mild.

Thing is I’m not worried about getting it, more about the business side of it

I’m also more worried about how this will continue to affect business

I have a few bookings confirmed for today but with schools & nurseries closing in Ireland, if that happens in the UK now too, many of us with children will struggle to work. I know I won’t be able to if that happens.
I’m considering making today my final day for a while, I’m more concerned about potentially catching it and passing it on to my elderly parents.
If schools close here, that decision will have been made for me anyway.

I think if its ramped up to stage 2 I'll stop escorting for a while.

With a noticeable increase in time wasting calls/texts/emails over the last few days I am coming to the conclusion that because of the virus scare, some men are still horny (obviously!!) and want some kind of relief but dare not do a physical meeting (which they would normally arrange and turn up to complete) so are chancing their luck with a phone or email quick wank. They are so out of luck with me on that one but it is becoming more of a possibility that is what they are attempting.

Lol I’ve had 2 Timewaster/cancellations today amid the possibility of phase 2 and Ireland’s lockdown.

Phase 2 - cancel mass public gatherings/events and closedown schools /universities.

On that note I hear China is apparently slowly going back to business as usual after their lockdown but need to continue reading up on it.

The dodgy and TW enquiries I've been receiving are historical TW, nothing to do with CoronaV.

Yes there's instability, yes plans are being affected however there also seems to be a bit of 'pre-holiday/pre-Christmas' type booking happening too.

I’m just waiting for the “Uhhhh....you don’t have the Corona virus, do you?” after the booking’s been arranged, time set, I’ve given him the hotel 🏨info etc🤦🏼‍♀️.

“Sure do, but it’s business as usual!”

I swear to GOD, 1st guy that asks that?

Coughing all over him😡.

Just expect things to be very up and down work wise until we ride out the storm. I know hand washing on arrival and leaving will help a bit. I certainly will not be kissing any though with that being a higher risk is anyone else refusing that?

If we end up with a lock down like in Italy then it will definitely affect business. Also people will be worse off by not earning money, or just getting statutory sick pay, businesses struggling etc

I have never known business this quiet! Barely any work at all. I've dropped my rates and I'm really struggling to get by now.
And yes I've stopped the kissing too since yesterday.

If you think it is Coronvirus making you quiet i doubt price dropping will do much plus clients could see the panic by doing that but obviously totally up to you with what you think is best.
