As a single guy I have been punting for many years and watched with self interest as the various prices quoted around.

This year, especially with the current outbreak the prices have jumped (to be expected) but is an inverse curve because the number of suppliers seems to have jumped as well whilst the number of active punters appears to have gone down.

My usual ML shop is no longer operating openly. Fortunately, having been a customer for many many years I have collected contact details so with the lockdown I was able to move to a more private situation, the same as last year.

Now I general have 2 to 3 punts per week. So one is fine.
my regular WL has gone back to Thailand.


The issue I am having is whilst my budget is the same, I am unable to get reasonable value anymore so I am punting less.
I wont pay $300 for a $200 punt.

So whilst there seems to be plenty of supply, they are pricing themselves out of the market.

I am looking for a ML who does a great service, has her own premises, and not outlandishly priced. And not too far away from chatswood and available late evenings.

.

why not just go back into your years of acquired contacts and dial up another ?

Seems plenty of other hapless blueys on here could benefit from your covert Covid contact list

Some punts have gone up in price to pay for the rented apartment that some are working in

you're paying additional money for the additional risk of covid and fines. you're also taking additional risk.

i assume you are not 'checking in' for your visits so in the unlikely event that you do pass on an infection it would be untraceable and could prolong the lockdown for all of us by weeks. are you vaccinated?

Death by punting seems a risk and an attraction at the same time for some.

You can't put a value to life. But you can make economic sacrifice for paid sex.

I bet those guys who were able to get numbers off MLs before the lockdowm must be laughing in comparison to those who didn't bother. At the same time, there must be a few MLs who weren't prepared to give out their numbers before the lockdown are now regretting not doing it.

I have WeChat contact details for several MLs.

I have sent them "hope you are OK?" type messages, all have replied; but none have suggested having a clandestine session.

Maybe I am being too cautious in not asking outright?

I can tell you $300 is cheap for the current environment. Also they ain't pricing themselves out of the market lol. They're pricing themselves out of "your" market. Tonnes of dudes willing to pay that amount. A lot are booked out.

It's still $150 if you know where to look.

I take the lockdown as an opportunity for meditation, chanting, cleansing, self-reflection, long walks etc. No dirty thoughts for me. I now live like a monk and am enjoying it.

Sex is greed. Abstinence is heavens. :)

Wow , I don't know how to take you with that comment, I am by myself, I have a couple of regulars who visit, but not during this shit storm at the moment, and I miss my kids and grand kids, because they are more important than "blue balls"and the knuckle dragging morons worrying about where their next "punt"(I hate that word)is coming from.....stay safe y'all

Sorry about the English I've been reading the Silmarillion.

Warwick is a good old boy. He misses his family and I get that. My Dad is feeling the exact same way. Add to that he's had a rough trot with friends and loved ones passing away.

As you get older and you start to realise your time with those you love is finite, and time speeds up, your priorities shift. You're missing those moments, birthdays, milestones etc. A month in lockdown at 25 with your life ahead of you is an entirely different proposition to a month in lockdown at 70.

He says it, how it is....I guess it’s his life experience. We are all here to share our experiences and, hopefully, learn from one another.

I concur with the others, warwick1 is one of the blokes I respect in this forum.
I reckon older people, people who have had far more experiences in life than I have, absolutely deserve my respect.
