I'm enjoying the terribly coy use of language here: escorts and working girls.


Is it wrong that I really want this to get lounged and see LadyD get on her soapbox? She's great on this issue, and it's one that I'm still undecided on, so I follow the cut and thrust of incisive debate with great interest (and not a small amount of glee).


Is it really more likely to make punters try to hit on children though? That's another thing entirely, no?

From memory someone said their daughter had been approached on their way to or from school.


It's depressing that you only have to scratch the surface and the latent misogyny and sexism is right there waiting to seep. It has come out in a number of threads recently, with the usual names attached.

Robert Poste's Child, you're quite correct about the misogyny that sometimes abounds on here, but I have to say that it's actually a lot better than many other places. The ratio of intelligent to rabid is pretty good.


As for a child being approached on their way to/from school, of course, this is only opinion on my part, but I wouldn't imagine it had anything to do with prostitutes working at 10pm. I recall many such an approach from my own childhood, none of which was spent in a place (or a time) when prostitutes were working. I think it's just a sad fact of life for women, and something that needs to change #everydaysexism


And Loz, as for forced - this is generally recognised to mean by dire financial need and mouths to feed, addiction, the threat of violence. There are doubtless other reasons, that you could educate yourself about if you chose to.

The link between hookers/punters and kids getting hassled on their way to school just seems incredibly far fetched to me.


Ignoring the possibility that the OP was just a hilarious wind-up... tbh I have no strong feelings either way on prostitution as long as nobody's coerced into anything. But surely in the age of the internet this kind of stuff can remain behind closed doors and nobody else need be any the wiser.

      Local black cab driver needed

      By IlonaM · Posted

      Have you thought about applying for a Taxicard for her? They have black cabs,although also Addison Lee so you'd have to request a black cab. The service is subsidised to the user for a set number of journeys each month. She can have someone with her for journeys. You apply through your local borough.

      Request for bells on cat collars near Crebor Street

      By Angelina · Posted

      So important to give them the best chance. You can buy bells on Amazon I’ve bought the cheap collars on amazon and find they fray quickly and aren’t great quality. The bells don’t really make a noise either. I’ve also bought a posh one from Pets Couture and it’s absolutely beautiful, got a proper bell and still looks like new after nearly a whole year! Definitely worth the money

      Request for bells on cat collars near Crebor Street

      By Sue · Posted

      I completely agree. A cat with a bell comes into my garden and sits patiently beneath the bird feeders. Sometimes I hear the bell first and can chase him out before he gets there, and hopefully birds can also hear the bell (but only when he's actually moving). This has got worse since prickly rambling rose stems were removed from fences at the back of the garden. I'm looking at what cat deterrents I can put there. You have probably done this already, but if not you might want to look at ways you can try to stop the cats getting into your garden  in the first place? It's very difficult. I love both cats and birds, but  as you say, cats will be cats.
