I just did my first tour earlier this month and I had hand gel, anti-bac wipes to wipe surfaces and anti-bac spray to use on bedding etc after each client. If it's not something you already require you can make it that everyone has to have showers. I didn't make it a requirement for everyone as a few of my bookings were just breast relief and cob so reduced the amount of towels being used, however anyone not having a shower did have to thoroughly wash their hands. Apart from that I didn't do anything different from what I would normally do apart from request deposits which I dont really do for tours.


Similar to me, ensure the guy wipes and cleans himself, and also got some LFTs so they can do it when they arrive and I give people the heads up before the make the boooking too that this is expected.  Yeah it doesn't set the right mood but health is wealth!  Most guys appreciate it.

My bookings from new men have dropped but my repeat clients are still coming.  Ultimately its something we will be adjusting and living with for ever now so it's good to share tips xx

I get every client well tell every client to thoroughly wash there hands with soap but quite a few literally just run the tap just quickly pop there hands under for 1 second and not even use the soap it's getting very annoying. Also i tell some to freshen up and no lie i have not even laid the towel down on the bed for them to lay on and there back and this is in a hotel room so we are talking seconds. So they take 5 seconds to wash hands and down below areas. It's ridiculous.

It's interesting who washes meticulously, who just performs a 2 second finger-tip rinse. Doesn't always match with their other behaviour, job, social or other status or words. On outcalls I try to without being rude, get a handwash within the first 5-15 minutes. As I often do request bathroom freshen up on arrival, it's not unnatural.

My old regular has booked me for Thursday, after almost 2 year covid hiatus. He requested I bring lateral flow test kits and we test together before proceeding any further, bless him ??? :o

Yeah, and if either of you have it then you may pass it on to the other. Silly man  ::)

I've got a regular who insists on the tests too, but at least he has the sense to do them away from me.

Good idea but he should do his at home and you do your one but maybe he do not trust you to do one without him being there. He probably knows sex workers are not using them every time we go to work and nor are any of the clients we see. He is a rare one to think of health as before the covid outbreak no clients cared about catching STI's they still wanted unprotected services.

In a way it is a good thing but none/hardly any clients will want to do a test they can barely wash there hands when told to.

@English Green, yes, to me it sounded like he didn't trust me.
I've had a 76yo client who was (understandably) paranoid about covid and he tested me on my arrival every time.
He actually stopped seeing me right now because of Omicron.
But I totally agree on the irony of them not giving a toss about STI yet caring about covid

If he's that concerned he wouldn't have sex. It ( feels ) to me like an act of superiority? That's just my opinion, never met the guy.

I wouldn't personally see him ( if ) he still wanted to pay for unprotected services. If he always plays safe, then I would understand. He's just being a cautious guy. But the fact that he wants you to do the test in front of him! what next? A vaccine passport?  :) oops spoke too soon! Thanks Boris!

Everyone insists on OWO and CIM but have the audacity to demand flow tests!  :FF ahhhhhhh

It's been a bit slow for me lately, frustratingly. I need the clients and to save but it's not easy.
I've been doing shifts at my local massage parlour too to supplement. But even that doesn't bring much extra in.
I've downsized my incall to share a 1 bedroom studio with another lady.

They don't, to be fair. I don't offer either (or RO) and nobody has tried to insist on them with me.

Well Amy, your a very lucky bunny! Because " everyone" for the last 2.5 weeks has asked me for this service despite me stating this on my profile in three places.  >:(  Then when I say I dont ( politely ) they then get pissy with me and make it seem like I'm the only girl who doesn't offer these services when I know for a fact that other women like yourself do the same. Might be time of month, location or because I'm new....Only time will tell!

But I'm not lucky - lots of people don't offer unprotected services and do fine! I honestly can't remember the last time I had a punter turn up expecting OWO; it must be years.

If you're having difficulty with whiny, pushy dickheads who want services you don't offer, ask them why they booked you and not somebody who offers the services they want? I occasionally get them expecting to do RO (mainly because I think fewer check for that than things like OWO or anal), but when it's pointed out they have to admit that they didn't read the ad and it's their own fault for not looking.

Back on topic and two different punters have told me today that their 'official' works do has been cancelled (not because anybody gives a shit but because the companies are afraid of looking bad), and in both cases the staff have just organised their own for next week. There are also people starting to lobby for government support for businesses who rely on people coming into work, so if any significant number of people are made to start working from home rather than it just being 'guidance' as it is now, we might hopefully see a bit of help again (although I wouldn't hold your breath).

Ive had 3 regulars cancel this week, all 3 apparently tested postive for covid.  And one potiental client cancel as hes nervous of catching covid. Anyone else having a spike in covid related cancellations?

On a non sex work related matter, my physio has had 9 cancellations this week due to her clients isolating (shes London).

I had a request that I do a LFT before meeting and he also asked to see my latest sti results too. I do regular LFTs and am regularly sti tested but I felt the sti request was a step too far and told him for F off. Felt very intrusive tbh.
