Over the centuries the British royal family has always managed to portray themselves, more or less successfully, as the head of society with the common touch. Thus when Queen Elizabeth got married in 1947 when Britain was living on rations to pay for the war, her family used their coupons to pay for everything including her wedding dress, which the common folk helped by chipping in. Same for the wedding cake. Her jewels were recycled from previous generations. The Queen also consented during her reign to paying income tax although other adjustments were made in the Royal allowances. The British along with some other Royal families of Europe adjusted to democratic movements in their countries. Like the Dutch and Nordics. And they still exist. The ones who were swept away like the Germans, Austrians and other Eastern European royal houses fell under autocratic regimes and during wartimes when there was social upheaval. The British clung on and were supported by their people at all levels of society.

In our own lifetime, who can forget when the Soviet Union collapsed and the vassal states did likewise. In Romania the dictator Nicolai Caucescieu (sp?) and his wife Elena, who had milked the state for all it was worth, were lined up against a wall and shot. She in her mink coat. Her last words were “Nicolai, they’re going to shoot us.”

Bezos has so much money he is also living within his means.

I think old money has had more time to reflect on the history of mankind and what happens in social revolutions when the oppressors are overthrown.

Long ago Oprah crossed over to the billionaire class and ain’t coming back.

I grew up in Montreal, knew the Village in the 70’s when it was a rundown neighborhood which the gays moved into when Mayor Drapeau kicked them out of the downtown, and moved there in 1998 after retiring. The turn of the century was the golden era for the Gay Village, as it was called. It got gentrified by well healed gays such as myself. We frequented the gay owned establishments and the neighborhood was very friendly and this was before drugs became a scourge. I sold out and moved in 2010 which in hindsight was a propitious time. From my visits over the last decade, the Village, which had the Gay dropped, has become a Petrie dish of human misery and others trying to co exist. As for living there, I’m glad I moved on. Having tourists drop in to spend a few days doesn’t make for a congenial ambience of neighbours living in harmony.

They say cameras make everyone look fatter. Applies to dicks too.

Montreal has just announced that more police are going to be patrolling the Village in a new program that if successful will be used elsewhere in the city. The Village is considered the worst for homelessness and street drug taking. So this will be an experiment to see if having more visible police will help. I’m somewhat perplexed because whenever I have been there in the last few years I see lots of police walking around there. More would be something and maybe oppressive?

What about the pnp? That is a potential red flag for me.

If you have a healthy diet, light to moderate drinking ( not more than 2 drinks a day) should not harm your liver. I’ve been following that for 60 years and it works for me.

Does he kiss?

I never would have tried this with a regular provider. A weekend at the usual 1-2 hour rate?? And he paid for his own gas (and time) to get to and from the venue. Which you were house sitting. Not a luxury hotel or resort I assume but maybe a nice place. You’re one lucky guy he accepted all that with good grace.

I guess he couldn’t distinguish between the fee and the tip. The fee is obligatory and the tip is called a gratuity for a reason. Gratuity is based on the French word Gratis or Free in English. A gratuity means it is freely given. As you had topped up his fee with a tip that more than covered his new fee, he should have graciously accepted your payment. That would have left him free to raise his basic fee for the next time. And you could have decided whether he was still worth the extra gratuity.

Maybe he means 9.5 soft.

30cm Gasp.

He advertises a 9.5 inch dick but surely it’s longer than that. Otherwise the camera sure flatters his size. It has always appeared to be around 11 inches in the several dozen flics I have seen him in.

He’s going to be in my area this week. Temping but…

Going up is always easier than going down.

I woke up this morning and the heat was gone. Back to seasonal weather. 👌

There are things you are alluding to but not saying much about this guy. For instance he got hurt in a scuffle a few weeks ago. Also he has sobriety issues. He’s 27 and you are older but how much older. Also the negative reactions he has when you try to initiate intimacy. And yet this is an escort client relationship. I think you are deluding yourself about how this relationship can be healthy for you. There are too many red flags imo.

Agree about the male host.

If you have to ask you obviously don’t live there.

My memory is pretty good on details and I would bet that the car she drove in the early series was a Ford Tudor. In those days I could tell every make of car and model year on the road. I would make a game of it driving with my parents.

Not in the original series that went from 1954 to 1957. I just looked it up. Jan Clayton played the war widow and she had a son (Retig) and the original Lassie. By 1957 I had outgrown the series and moved on to the Lone Ranger. Lol. I also think my mother was influenced by that program as she would watch it with me sometimes. The family lived on a farm and the mother was very self sufficient. She drove her own car. My mother lived in the city but didn’t drive. Her younger sister who lived in the US did and after we came back from a visit my mother told my father “I want to drive” and that was that. She took lessons and started driving.

I watched Lassie on TV in the 1950’s. Is that the series she played in? I don’t recall a husband figure. I thought she played a widow or single mom, which was very unusual in those days. I could relate as my father’s two older brothers had died young and each left 2 young kids under 10. So my cousins were like the kid in the Lassie series. Or do I remember it wrongly.
