    the one thing i have learned is to vote with my feet, once a punt starts going south due to lies (fake photos, hidden charges, listed favorites being refused, excessive waiting) then I'll have no hesitation at leaving

    It was lot simpler back than: buy a copy of "In Dublin" search the classified adds, under Massage Parlours and some of these places had their addressees and phone no. in the add.
