Ah, but you see Carlos is one of the smart ones, he shops around in the background and gets some very good deals with ladies across the water to come to him, if I remember correctly he doesn't pay much more for a week than what we pay for 24 hours
Just between you and me Brother Anon, I once engaged an escort for a week and then divided the gift by the number of hours she would be with me (I know, I'm a statistical anorak) and horror of horrors, I discovered I was paying her less than the minimum hourly wage here.
I have since been banned by the comrades in militant tendency.
WoW I'm impressed.... You were in Lord of the Rings???
