I'm no spring chicken but I've always had the internet around when my punting journey began.

But how did it work way back in the day. 90's 00's

Before pictures were heavily photoshoped
before forums

How did it work?
Just rock up to a shop and see a lineup?
and drive around shops until you settle for someone you like
AR was word of mouth amounts mates.
How do you even know where shops were?

Please Share stories of how it use to work and what the punting scene was like. I mean pre 1995 brothels were illegal.
What happened before then?

And when Brothels first got started. What was the scene like?
