i was thinking about booking a hotel next weekend is it to soon?

Last time I checked hotels were supposed to be closed, some may be open for essential workers NHS and the like - have you checked hotel websites?

Second I and I think all of us need to wait until tomorrow's speech, I don't think it's going to make a great deal of difference but who knows.

Thirdly if I start seeing clients again I am erring on seeing those I consider to have isolated lives (some of the guys I see outcall are like this, do truly have isolated lives), and aside of that I too have quite an isolated existence however I do have someone at home I have to protect.

Lots to think about although camming has helped a lot, I don't want to be sat in the same room all day every day when I can earn the same as 2 days camming in a one hour booking (taking up 3 hours of my time including getting ready, any travel). I don't however want to be off for 4 weeks because I get CV-19, and/or the other person in my household.

My idea is to mix in some isolated regulars with a few days camming to make enough to be ok mentally, physically and financially, whilst staying as safe as I can.

I can't see any major easing of restrictions, but fingers crossed.

I do admire your optimism at looking at hotels considering we are still in a lockdown and we haven't heard Boris 7pm speech yet.  I doubt there will be much change for us on his speech.  I think maybe around end of July August probably when we can return to our jobs.  Even then its gonna be like a disinfectant regime for my punters to return, for them its  meant to be relaxing not a clinical interrogation to go through.

I'm seriously needing money as I'm struggling and I'm thinking about quitting this job and look for a more reliable civvy job.  See ladies on here say they have tried camming, I'm thinking about trying it but how much can you earn if you sit and cam all day?  To me it sounds extremely tedious and frustrating way to earn but if the money is that good as you ladies say it is then I need to know ££££ please.

So .. go to work if you can’t work from home ... I can work from home .. so I can go to work? I wish they’d be clear.
I understand you’ll say that for us to work we can’t abide the 2 meters so perhaps we still can’t work? So does that mean hairdressers etc will still not be allowed ? I’m so confused and every speech I see on the news is filled with so much empty noise

July earliest opening for hospitality. Ughhh (for me working from hotels is the best fit).

Yea I really don't understand at all how we fit into all of this. Other than we can't have visitors generally at working from home I think generally means at at laptop or what have you, and so in that case even by August in this plan, if I've understood right, we are not able to go back to work?

I don’t know either. We need to go to work to pay our bills though? I know of a few nail techs working, I went to see mine yesterday. She said she’s seeing max 4 clients a day. I guess that’s no different to me seeing 4 clients a day either

Nothing’s changed

Basically it’s a road map on what will happen in the future if all the figures & statistics continue to go in the right direction

Those statistics rely on everyone including us to do the right thing

It’s a little disappointing to read on hear that some ladies are still openly admitting to continue to meet men for bookings

In my opinion, only when the government allow the hospitality industry to open up could we then justify returning to some sort of normality

Until then stay safe everyone xxx

The most I can glean from reading the speech over is that 'some hospitality workers' can (if their plan goes to plan)  go back to work in July/August. We might be considered hospitality workers but who knows what the 'some' means even if we are; only those who can safely distance and remain hygienic ? In which case, unlikely.

It might help if we had been told (for personal reasons also!) when they plan to let visiting friends/boyfriends/lovers happen again because we could squeeze ourselves into that definition (seeing as our industry is not itself legal and we can only legally work as private individuals in totally private spaces etc etc) but no sign of those suggested plans yet either. Which, as others have said,  might be more important for people to know than when we can visit the pub or go shopping for inessentials.

I’ve seen clients 3 out of the 4 days on a max of two per day and min of 1 hour. I work my normal job during the week so I’m taking to take all precautions I can.

This weekend was 3 regulars (1 twice) and two new (one a condom remover.)

Seemed ok and I carried a notebook so I looked like with my bag I was on some form of official business.

All were outcalls at their location. Though summer nights and COVID have brought out the curtain twitchers.

I've not fully digested BoJo's newest speech, but as I understand it the social distancing rule for people who aren't locked down together hasn't changed? So anything like having your nails done, having a hair cut, fucking a random stranger is still a no-no?

We cannot work as whores from home until hairdressers, massage parlours and TRUE beauticians can work again I'm afraid.  As I said before we will be able to work probably around July or August.

Yep correct. We basically will be the last ones to go back to work maybe when shops/ pubs/ restaurants open but then again we cannot keep 2 meters apart til we get a vaccine. So our industry is the worst of the bunch unfortunately for getting back to work safely.
