My recollection goes as far back to days when I worked in Gspot for Alex the Russian or Yvonne at Elegance and Marlene in Lennox Street Lennox Street. Catherine the English Rose and I worked in Lennox till Marlene was killed in a high hacking man business was so different back then.

Houses today could learn from these places and whats more is agency fees where next to nothing back then.

This thread brings back so many memories indeed.........

Le Paradis and it's owner Antonella, very essentric and quirky, but I was very fond of her.

Romance and the gorilla suit incident..lol. Saw Poppy for the first time one night and to me it was such a sad experience that I walked out the same nite and never returned - it was a major defining moment in my life.

Then there was Anita who owned Anitas in town, around the corner from Romance. She used to have these massive fashion/pattern books for dressmaking with pictures of chanel and dior dresses etc - she made me quite a few stunning evening gowns that I still have to this day (maybe I should do a few photo shoots in them in the future). She was a lovely woman.
I wonder if she is the same person who now owns the Anitas house I have seen that advertises on Esa, does anyone know if it is the same Anita?

@Arwhen
I didn't know that you worked at Lennox St.
I always booked a mature lady there, blonde and in her 40s.
She was definitely one of the best ladies I ever went with.
She told me she was of German heritage.
I'm sure she retired long ago but I hope you can tell me her name, if only cos I'm worried my memory is fading in my old age!

That 8-track stereo must be collectors item now.

@Sybil
Antonella was a large Italian woman, right?
She was quite a character.
Some very hot ladies worked there, I booked many of them.
There was also another escort agency about a mile to the east of Le Paradis.
I forget the name of the agency, the owner's name was Russell.
I often booked his sister, Mandy, and we'd go to her house in Malvern for the 2 hour booking.
One of the wildest women I ever met, she was not hassled by anything.
In those days the whole industry was a lot more laid back, much better than these days.

Italian yes, but not a very large woman, average/medium built with long reddish hair. Lol well who knows, maybe you and I had an encounter during those days...

I know which place you are talking about, but can't think of the name now as well.

Totally agree, things were much more laid back those days, it was all about having fun and making some money in the process.

I used to visit Hillbrow fairly often right up until the early 2000s... it was already in decline but the only place I frequented by then was Summit Club.
Amazing memories.

I did I was still a very young super model back in the day ;) my name used to be Jade and Sky amongst others

There were a number of girls working there the venue was big there was a outside cottage for private bookings the dungeon the Jacuzzi ample rooms. I'm not sure that f the lady you speak of is Klara as girls come and go maybe we were not there during the same time period a few ladies I remember from there was Penney,Charlie, Catherine,June a beautiful Thai lady Klara and there were lots more ladies but more cats than ladies and the two huge puppies. Those were the days the newspaper days. When we had to give a brief description of ourselves over the phone and guys could send dick pics or ask for them.

11 Condrad Drive is also one of the venues that I used to coin it at :) as Channel The Cape Malay stunner:)

Sjoe ek raak oud even though I don't feel old
