"I will assume that comment to have been made in jest,"
Partly in jest and partly to put you off - I thought you were maybe just another dreamer with an half-baked plan, who might come in, spend a little money (with the emphasis on little) that would fuel some inferior product, which you would then cast out into the crowded market place, thus devaluing, ever so slightly, all the other adult video business out there which are vying for an ever decreasing share of the pie. I didn't realise you have 'history' in the business. My apologies.
"if I want anything like that I can go to any number of local parlours for ?40 - ?50."
You don't want to go to one of those mankey joints. They're just one short step up from the low life, crack addicted, hookers on moody street corners. Those 'parlous' are usually staffed by chavs (with tattoos) and trafficked east Europeans. You might catch something, get turned over or even arrested! Like everything in life you get what you pay for and at the top end of the scale you be talking about someone with the looks and style of Lea Martini, someone who wouldn?t' disgrace you at the Ambassador's Ball or in the Casino Royale, someone who would make you feel like you were Don Juan or Errol Flynn. But that kind of quality can run to ?300 - ?500 per hour, plus.
"Any model shoots I do have and always will be totally above board and professional"
As have mine. I'm there to make money.
"I have no objections to girls escorting and have even been offered extra services on shoots before today but it just isn't for me."
A very enlightened attitude, Sir. Though I think that, nowadays, in these mankey times, if I were offered any extras, I'd probably do a 'News Of The World' - make my excuses and leave!
