Think we also have to remember that there are probably some sex workers out there that might be in complete dire straits and feel they have no choice but to work. Maybe they will soon find another way to earn money to tide them over until things get s bit better. Maybe they are still waiting to get through to UC.

Yep there will be some just working to get food or electricity and gas because so many have STILL NOT GOT THROUGH TO UNIVERSAL CREDIT so feel like they have no choice. But there will be a small percentage that have enough savings hiked there prices right up and cashing in on less sex workers working so in a fact taking advantage of the crisis. I get the first reason it is survival but the second reason i think is very bad when so many are losing there life if they catch it and the ones cashing in when financially comfortable will still be going out to buy food so will be near others.

I have not because my number is not listed or switched on to even know. I took it off when lock down was introduced.

Best thing to do if you do not want those calls just remove it. I have not had 1 single call since removing it and i have checked just a couple of times.

I think Foxy lady that the punters worth seeing are the ones that don't ask now but keep in mind some guys are testing to see what ladies are not taking their health and others seriously and being irresponsible. So yes it very annoying indeed and I'm lucky I got to see my regulars before this all got very serious. Bit what's most annoying is we will get updates and reviews every 3 weeks which leaves us not knowing when we will be free to work. If big companies are putting employees on 80% pay for 3 months and Wimbledon and Olympics being cancelled this summer, Bog coronavirus hospitals being put together then I think we will be in limbo more than 3 months.

Edinburgh festival also cancelled and that’s August!!
I'm glad I got all the Cynthia Payne books before the prices rocked to sky high.

I agree remove number, I'm just getting the A holes that know my number and pop up every now and again and now they get blocked. But no new callers or text without my number on view.

I totally agree with English green that I can't judge girls that need to feed themselves but to cash in males me judge because its greed and total ignorance too.  Saved, I have a roof but if I don't work then I got to give up my work flat boo hoo, Health and morals come first always.

I never show my number, the requests are coming via AW and email (which is ONLY on my website which does not offer physical bookings) .

I'm also now getting SMS texts via AW which I have checked and yes that service is UNTICKED yet the service still shows on my profile (I get about 20p every time I reply, but STILL...)

There was a report on the news which is not escort related but I say so as it relates to us.

The lady was arressted in Yourk and been fined for breaching coronavirus restrictions after she refused to tell police who she was and why she was at a railway station.

So I do wonder those ladies who are still providing incalls or Outcalls still working during this time (NOT judging) if business comes their way as the police are asking questing those on foot and who are driving what their reason for their journey.

If there was no lockdown enforced I would still be working  outcall bookings but will not provide full gfe just doggy position and practice social distancig in the meet.
I support breaking up groups but hassling individuals is draconian.

Yea I think it makes no sense to target individuals (which I doubt many police will be doing anyway especially given that they are even more understaffed now than normally) but if I were to still be going on outcalls or whatever I'd avoid wearing the more 'glammy' stuff because where would anyone legitimately be going dressed up? And wear very casual clothes etc But then I wouldn't personally advice still offering outcalls even if someone does still have to work, and that's not a reactionary judgement just, its a bigger risk.

I made the bus journey ( only one on the bus Billy no mates lol) and on foot to my work flat to check on it and I didn't see any police. My ex was trying to get me to get a cab to his last night, Told him I don't do booty calls lol But also I'd feel like I was breaking the law .The police are targeting cars on the motorways mainly with unmarked cars. I know someone recently got a £60 fine this week trying to visit his girlfriend. Unfortunately sometime the power goes to the heads of some authority figures.

Sorry, know this is off topic but I received a wonderful text from one of my regulars yesterday. He asked if I was ok with all the CV going on and said if I needed any money to let him know. I don't, but how lovely is that.

Another reg messaged me last week to say if I needed anything to let him know. Turns out he was thinking in lines of pasta, but still appreciated.

That reflects on the quality of a person you are. I'm hoping that the same regulars that appreciate us will be the ones booking us up after this lockdown and that's would be the best help to boost funds.

I’ve been surprised at the texts I’ve received from regulars too, asking how I’m doing & one telling me to let him know if there’s anything he can do to help me out. I’m good & don’t need anything, but it’s been nice to get a few “hope you’re doing okay!” messages.
There’s a couple older clients with health issues who I’ve thought about & I’m hoping are okay, although I would never contact them to check.
