Who gives a fuck what I think anyway haha. The Glory Days are well and truly behind us.
    Also from personal preferences, quality have gone way down after covid.

    Before covid, 150/hr shops out west you could find girls in their 20-30s. Now you are lucky if you can find someone 45.

    Also dont get me started on the standard, gold, diamond service bs - which will cost 250/hr without rimming or pussyslide.

    Also i feel like girls are uglier now too. If we talk pure beauty, Lara probably takes it at Ginza right now. But if you had Lara on in 2018-2019 when Jin, Lulu, Daisy etc were on, she wouldnt get anywhere close to top tier.

    The fact they cancelled working holidays visa for chinese girls doesnt help the pussy price. 45k gdp per capita quality japanese girls isnt flying 2000km here to work at rates lower than back home.

    All I can suggest is don’t date a ML unless she believes Monopoly money is real. They you’re in with a chance.

    Yeah i have drop off my punting for sure. The prices haven't have not reflected the service post covid. Defiantly seeing my regular girls more often and not searching for new girls as a bad punt really hurts these days. I am down to 1 punt ever week and a half to 2 weeks, from 4 to 5 a fortnight.

    Yep, its the reason why I have avoided new WL's. A few have been good but have either disappeared off rosters or returned home. Regulars are great because you know what you'll be getting. The WL is happy and your happy so its a win win situation lol.

    The cost of living issue is real, also uncertainty of the economy is worrying, I don't think it's getting better. If we have less punters' spending/demand, price might come down.

    There is a nasty side effect of the last couple of years booming, the extremely poor quality of renovations which after the 6 years warranty, will create so many more issues not in apartments, but it 95% it will be kept quiet even by the press.
    Well said, local, totally agree with you on the property sector, we will definitely see more buliding issues in the next few years. Plus, the recent heavy rainfall is not helping.

    I had a complete reno done on my place last year & it was done by a relative who has his own business. Excellent first class job & great to move back into a "new" home...

    Ive been focusing on my watch collection and realized I’m able to pick up many more time pieces from not punting as much.

    I’d be happy with just the parking sticker. Perhaps when I’m 95 I’ll apply for one, the sticker that is. Though I’m seriously thinking of living right in the CBD. It’s so convenient. After dating that ML and seeing how she has her digs set up, there is no need to drive anywhere except on an adventure.

    I haven’t been able to watch any ads as I just don’t have the time. I’ve tried time and time again but it escapes me.

    Dual income Married(partnered) people in their mid fifties up, who no longer have a mortgage, live in their own home and whose children have left home are the ones that are not feeling the pinch as much. I fall into this category and by the odd punter I've bumped into, can only imagine their are heaps of us punters in a similar situation.

    Punting is a vice like smoking and gambling. Cigarettes are up to $65 a packet and smokers still smoke. And I guess the same can be said for punters and gamblers. Most of us will keep on punting regardless and that's why the price for a punt keeps increasing. I browse the private adds and the prices are higher than ever and that can be said for shops as well. Most of us will cut back in some way. Some will chose cheaper alternatives. Some will punt less frequently and some will shorten the times of their visit to say from 1hour to 45 or 30 minutes.

    I read somewhere there was a 15 min blow n go. You only have to drop your pants or unzip.

    Now that’s gotta be cheaper surely,

    I had a successful evening, a gap in the rain. Was gifted with 140 cans bottles, in less than 3 hours.Redeemed them. Got my 6$ aldi special... yum. 1 litre small talk Shiraz. Feeling chirpy. Go find some bumpers. See if I can find Valerie. Have some loving in the Wentworth park showers. Enjoy the portables outside , while they do up the toilet block
