I wish the best to all who used Vivian's agency, as well. Possibly some tough times for them and their families ahead.
Just as a consequence of last night's news, this Irish girl has had two cancellations on St. Paddy's Day! Both were new gentlemen who had not seen me before (screened of course, but with little experience in the hobby), and I guess that I can understand their fear with the media focus on the profession presently. I would think that careful independents would be much safer than agencies, if naught else 'cause we don't attract as much attention, but.....
I wonder how this will affect business? Any other ladies want to chime in? Would it be advisable right now for the gentlemen to stick with providers that they had seen before, and vice versa for the ladies?
Anyway, any leprechauns out there interested in my shamrock, I'm available. Sigh. :(
(P.S. -- Jeez, Barrister, why would any provider be that anal retentive with records? You're right. NOBODY should give any lady info about their family. I think it wise, actually, to join P411 or Date Check and just be a number. And yesss, I'm going right now to erase the few stray emails I may have lying around.)
