Thanks. All relevant points. I was just a bit paranoid. I doubt places use hidden cameras for recording as would only incriminate themselves?

Hard to know on this. Logically you have a point about recordings actually amounting to evidence. Only thing is - evidence of what? I'd be surprised if there was a camera in a room recording activity, rather than just arrivals and departures but who knows really?
There was a premises near Dublin city centre which ended up in the courts a number of years ago. I was a regular there but was not, thankfully, among the number of punters approached as they left the place and who ended up testifying in court. There was an issue there with recordings definitely though not quite sure what it was. But there was mention of in-room cameras organised by the owner to monitor staff. How much truth there was in that I'm not sure.
But, again, it's a matter of holding your ground. Video evidence of someone entering a premises is not evidence of illegal activity. I have been punting for over 30 years and have never been put off by cameras, potential recording or even fear of being seen. I often think that odds are that somewhere along the way over that time someone must have seen me somewhere which would maybe not be easily explained. I have sailed close to the wind at times near my home and workplace but all has been good.

Agree. No issue with a recoding of coming and going especially for girls safety. But wud be pretty crap if hidden cameras in room. Most places you need to build up trust before they offer HE. After that, it usually a nod and wink scenario as both parties know what’s going on.
Having hidden cameras in the room doesn't sound like it would be in their interests, they'd only be creating material to indict themselves with.
Yo lads. I am here long enough in this Thread but I still don't know where Fang is. Can someone PM me please? Thanks 😅
