Should anybody be interested October was generally pants for most of us as mercury was retrograde which always impacts on business globally.

It will be out of its shadow by the weekend so things will pick up again.

I have just had a crap two months it just ain't pretty ....  September is always a week months for us after the school summer holidays and cost of foreign holidays for people etc.

Hope this helps anyone!

Not a loony honest lol.

Business has been busy here lol  :-\

Not a great month for me either  >:(
Plus renting out rooms on a daily rate is becoming a bit risky as I seem to always have clients book on the day. I never seem to go anywhere with a full day booked in advance.
Advance bookings are a rarity at the moment, so I neve know when somewhere is going to be busy or not.
Currently in Bracknell so will see how good it is here.
Not being hitting daily target lately.
Not good.

I'm not sure how I feel about October yet. Yesterday 1 booking of 3,5 hours, today a guy cancelled for a 3 hour session and still 2 hours standing in my schedule. Last week was ok, first week was really good but now Im working only two days I feel the pressure to earn enough to also save for my Australia trip (needing 5k) and not sure if I'll manage it at this pace..

Yesterday was one of the most testing and trying days of my working life.  By 11.15 I gave up and had a gin and tonic, I needed it.

Idiots texting and calling, had a guy show up who booked me via phone, told me I was a bait and switch whe I asked him where he saw my ad he said George McCoy, that flat capped little prick had still not removed the fake details he had put up on his site about me and I am getting the backlash.

Just as a thought. What are your thoughts on business being slow because of all the TV programs of recent about this business!? Everyone turning to it to make what they believe to be quick and easy money because its so great..... Also, could the Ashley Madison scandel of actually frightened guys off??  :FF

I have read posts on punting forums and surprisingly punters are behind girls on what the goverment is teying to imply against this business. For me quiet means - phone not ringing at all, for other girls it may means they had half of the bookings they get a day. Everyone has different daily targets. I am annoyed as i didnt meet my weekly target which means i have to work on sunday to make it up for today..

I don't think the AM scandal puts men off using escorts per se, but I do think it's going to make them even more wary of giving e.g. Adultwork any of their details.

I also wonder if some are worried about e.g. trafficked women, but don't have the nous/time/inclination to do the research about who to see, so end up not bothering at all?

Still pretty dead over here - there is some movement, finally, but mostly nonviable inquiries. >.<

Yesterday was absolutely shit.
3 of us in the flat yesterday and we were all quiet.
Full of timewasters and no proper calls until after 8pm when I had already gone home (don't do evenings)
I think it is quiet everywhere as I have been alternating locations and every where has been about the same.
Not turning down calls and bookings are hours between, but yesterday was the worst day of the week.
Just 2 hours after paying 70 for room 10 petrol 40 child minder. Not worth it at all.
Next week I am taking a risk and doing 3 different locations Monday-Friday and seeing how that goes. 550 overhead so I need a couple of decent days!!

I'm new at this but things are getting there. I've had a few really nice ones recently.  ;D
If we're not supposed to have midnight snacks, why is there a light in the fridge?

Many girls/women turn to whoring around October in order to pay for little Johnny and little jeanies Christmas presents, then usually disappear again in January. It's just a case of hanging in there  ::)
Beauty is nothing to do with having a pretty face.
It is about having a pretty mind, a pretty heart,
And most importantly a beautiful soul.

Oh god are the fresh faced xmas profiles coming back? I'll have to start paying for local escort and available today to keep myself up top again. :-(

It's so up and down here the last few months I honestly don't know what's up, I'm assuming it's a mix of the weather xmas and poopy randomness of this line of work. I keep thinking of a massive overhaul of my advertising then suddenly I have a great few days and can't be bothered, all this slow then busy is making me lazy af and lose motivation.
