Also in Edinburgh, also reeeeally dead. So much so that I'm migrating to London over the weekend in the hope of clients! Hope things pick up for both of us! xx

I just come back from holiday been away for around 6 weeks and its my first week back
its kind of up and down one minute busy next day im ringing myself to make bookings im so bored
monday had 5 booking
tuesday 4 booking
wed 1 booking  ( calling myself to book myself
thurs 3 bookings     

Normally im on 3-5 bookings a day on average but the phone is just dead dead   just those that are calling are booking thank fuck  On the day that i had one booking i had 3 phone calls all day 
had quite a few guys asking for discounts as well so i think that they are still skint and feeling the credit card bills hitting on the floor  in feb

I am currently in Ireland, and it is DEAD! The phones are not ringing, and the idiots that do call and book are TW, so my enthusiasm is somewhat diminished, to the point, that only until the client calls and says he is standing at the door, only then do I bother to get up and get my clothes sorted. Over-exaggeration of course, but you get the idea. Let's say I am catching up on my TV series, just fine.

January was the worst months since I began.  Most of the early part was wiped out by snow and looks like more is forecast for next week.  Joy.

You may want to try some of the minor directories.  Just google "escort Edinburgh" and arrange a listing on absolutely every directory for the first five pages or more.  This is incredibly boring but it does work.  I get clients from places where I forgot I was listed!  You may also want to try other escort related searches for your area because these all result in slightly different directories.

AH, are you being funny? Hey I will travel, but I don't know if the gentlemen on the Isle of Man, are quite ready for Violette. :D

If anyone  wants to move to the Isle of Man apparently they are crying out for Escorts!!

No wonder.  It's the Isle of Man, not the Isle of Woman.

It's up and down here!  8)
One day I can't take every booking as they all want to be seen right now or at 3pm - I might be good but I can not split into three people at once!
Other days I clear the decks expecting it to be as the day before and it's dead, I am starting to think of painting the last wall in the dining room as nothing else is going on...
If there is one thing I will never have while doing this job it is predictability!

I have to say work is up and down here as well. One day I'm turning down 4 or 5 clients the next day just riddled with obvious time wasters. Still keeping my head above the water with regulars but it would be nice if a few guys would try to give me a bit more notice to help me plan things out. One thing we (my partner and I) have notices is that our duo service seems to be pulling in the punters so there must be some money about!

Good luck to you all and remember things can only get better, so they say  :-\

Business is down every where, ive spoken with several girls recently and they have the same opinion as me on this. Its just something we have to get through.

Quiet isn't the word I'd use. Totally fucking dead would be more accurate. February is always a bad month, but this one has been the absolute pits. Trying to work out if there are more cancellations and non confirmers  than usual, or is just that I don't notice them as much when it's busy because there's always someone else to take their place?

Girlfriend...I'm not exaggerating! Not only am I not used to having incalls...but I'll sit around and thinking they won't come, and next thing I know they are downstairs. There's been several times where I've had to tell them to wait for me for 5 minutes as I just got out the shower  :P

Overalll...this has been a cheap month. I've had very few 1 hour bookings from my expensive sites here and there...but not much. The big spenders are hiding out...but the small amounts are becoming quite lucrative. Febuary is the month of the $50 blow jobs  :P

Having moved away from cities where I've had alot of competitors, I'm no longer feeling the brunt of it as I did last year. Im also able to take incalls which has made a difference. So overall...it could be better, but its been alot worse in previous years.

I had hope that the sunny weather would start stirring the loins of the men of Great Britain but it seems not.

I am getting depressed with lack of activity.  I do not remember it this bad, (and I thought Jan/Feb were poor). Even the camming is dead.  Where are these men hiding or are they all out visiting you?

No, Its not you. Ive come home early today for that reason. Its the middle of the month but I bet you next Thursday and Friday will be busy.  ;)

The weirdest thing happened to me...I was getting on average 1 or 2 clients per day, and finally 1 from my more expensive site (which paid half the rent, whohoo!) and then it suddenly came to a screeching halt the past 2 days. Its like, HELLO! anybody alive out there! (saying in an accent from Titanic)

In fact, I took down all my ads and am basically just gonna survive off what I have until my next booking...

The weather here has also improved significantly...too bad there isnt a beach nearby, its absolutely fabulous though.
