Lesson in Stockings

Did you know that stockings are very complicated articles?  No, I don’t just put them on and you take them off, simple as that!

I am referring to fully fashioned stockings and the different types and way they are made.  Gentlemen of a certain vintage will remember them being worn by ladies all the time (those were the days!).  These days though, only a handful of producers manufacture stockings in the way they were made during the 1940′s and 50′s.

So, fully fashioned stockings are stockings made from nylon (hence ‘nylons’) and were knitted flat on the machine.  The two sides of the stocking are then sown together to form a seam – hence the sexy seam!  Fully fashioned stockings or FFS are bought by height or shoe size (mine are 34″ ).  Where it starts to get a little tricky (if you are buying some for a lady) is the variety of heel designs you can buy today.  You have the point heel, which as it suggest brings the heel to a point, then you have the havana heel which is a square top and the cuban which is the same as a havana but goes higher up the leg.  You also have the french which is pyramidal and then the manhattan which I am not too familiar with yet.

The top, ohhh the sexy top!  Well, that should have a finishing loop.  The loop is needed to allow the needle sewing the seam to be withdrawn.  All these sexy little touches began as practicalities, don’t you love that?

So once we have decided on the heel we have to think of the colour.  Black is of course my preference but I do have a few flesh coloured pairs including that vintage 1940′s pair that were acquired for me from a French market, all in original packaging – do you remember those?  Beautiful they are, and still going strong.    I have just ordered a pair of flesh tone with a sexy black seam from my supplier.  Perhaps you will get to see them soon?

I am not sure which are my favourites, I like them all!  The only problem is they are very expensive and do snag easily, so nails trimmed and watches off,  please fellas!

Sunday Roasts & London Toasts

It’s getting a bit chilly now don’t you think?  I have the heating on in the morning, it’s on the low setting but on it is.  I am not too keen on traipsing – is that a Devon word? as in ‘Look at that maid!, (maid being a female and not necessarily of the serving wench variety – when you come here ( the westcountry)  and get to know these things, you will be honoured to be called a maid, honestly, it is a term of endearment for girls/women/lasses – I don’t mind it, I have been called it all my life.  Likewise ‘Bird’ , we call everyone ‘bird’ –   men, women, dogs ,cats, even birds hahaha.

I got into trouble once, in a PC environment in the north for calling someone, a colleague  ‘bird’.  My defence, your honour was that it was a colloquial saying where I come from and therefore I was entitled to say it, so don’t tell me what I can and cannot say.  Sigh.  Don’t you wish you shouldn’t have to explain this stuff – these things that mean no harm to anyone to these PC maniacs?

Anyway, if you are a man and are called that;  bird  that is fine but maid is not (please keep up darling)   Maid is  definitely only for women.   So I was saying;    Oh yes  ‘Look at that maid  traipsing around looking like God knows what!’     Hmm and I thought God knew everything. (nods head unsagely)

Oh anyway, I digress  :) where was I?,  oh yes traipsing around the apartment semi-naked freezing my wotsits off.  Oh no.  You will find a warm and toasty welcome here. Yes indeed.

I don’t know about you but my attention goes to comfort food (yes food again :) when the autumn peeks it’s coppery head around the corner.  And that means….. ahh roast dinners.  Oh my word,  yum. Now, who on this whole planet doesn’t like a well-cooked roast?  No I thought not.  Everyone does.  I actually like cooking them too.  I know they can be time consuming and all that washing up (horray for dishwashers!)  So here is the deal, humour me, pander to my cravings and book a sunday lunchtime appointment and you will get…. eggs on toast.  No just kidding, a roast of course. Chicken, Beef, Lamb, Pork, whatever.  I don’t care.   Just let me,go on let me do it for you!  Or we could always pop out to a nice country pub and eat one there?

Talking of weekends, you will note that I have been away a fair bit lately and not available every weekend, well I am here for the next 3 (sorry, this weekend – 12 Sept – is fully booked though).   But if you want to see me during the other ones and claim your roast, you know what to do ;)…    A Roast and a Romp?  Ooh er Missus!

London Tour Update

Getting excited about my forthcoming London trip.  Very excited.  Apart from the splendiferous hotel I am booked into,  just you wait and see!  I have lots of other things planned too.  Meeting my sexy London chaps of course!,  lunch with the fabulous  Miss Dollymopp,  a party (yes I have been invited to a party! – whoo whoo!  I can’t remember the last time I went to a proper party – sad isn’t it?  hehehe).  Obviously I am going to do a spot of shopping  while I am there, maybe buy some new fancy pants and possibly take in St Paul’s Cathedral.  I haven’t visited there before and I am gradually ticking off all the major sites of London during my tours.

Unfortunately for those wishing to see me in London this month, I am now fully booked for this tour (I have a list though – I love my lists! -  for if you want me to contact you in case of cancellation) but I think I may be back sometime in November, so keep a look out for the dates my lovelies.  I think some new pictures are in order for then too.  The fellas on my VIP list will get first notification of those dates, oh and the pics.  What?  You are not on my VIP list?  And you being a VIP and all?  Scandalous!   Send me an email darling;  rhiacharles@yahoo.co.uk and I will pop you on there, quick as you like.

So roasts and toasts, looks like a splendid September after all! x

Happy Anniversary to Me!

Yes it is 3 years to the day since I started escorting again.  1st September 2006.   You will remember that I used to escort hundreds of years ago but retired for 6 years :)  Wow, doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun?   So how was it for you Mister? ;)

What a 3 years it has been.  I have met you lovely fellas in London a few times now.  I have been wined and dined in New York.  I have shared the craic with you in Dublin and been treated like a princess in Edinburgh.  We have had some fun in Bath and I almost got to Windsor :)  Most of you I have met whilst you are passing through Devon though.  Some of you have become very dear friends. The vast majority of you have been utter gentlemen and for that I thank you.  You know who you are. x

Kind Sirs

Oh I had a couple of lovely emails over the past few days – really made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside – with granted permission, I’d like to share them with you – thank you chaps!

Thank you, Rhia, for a truly delightful time together. You went to a lot of trouble to ensure that all my senses were well and truly fed, watered, more than satisfied, sated! It was such a pleasure to be relaxed with you, to be completely unrushed and to able to chat so openly together. Talking together reminded me how fortunate I am, in so many different ways. Thank you for being you! Be yourself and don’t change as you bring so much joy to those lucky enough to share your company. – Mr A

and….

Perfect Hostess

Mr D told me over a very fine lunch a little while ago that his aunt had been a Courtesan.  Yes.  Here is the story ( I know he wont mind me relating this,  as at the time I gasped,  ‘I feel a blog post coming on!’  as he was telling me and he laughed  ‘Blog away!’ )

So, this was a lady who became very wealthy by virtue of her talents, but that is not the point.  She had only a  few well chosen suitors who took care of her handsomely and in return?  Well, in return she made their lives easier, more passionate and also made them in turn very, very wealthy.  How so?  I hear you ask.

Apparently, she was the supreme hostess.  She hosted the most magnificent dinners for the movers and shakers in this gentleman’s industry. She never actually ate at her dinner parties (Oh I dont like that idea!) because she wanted to ensure that she was totally attentive to all of her guests.  She was fragrant, amenable and charming.  These dinners were the catalyst for deals and mergers and hence made the gentleman in question very comfortable.  Never underestimate the power of food, Dear Reader,  or indeed the power of a talented woman ;)

I loved this story and I wish I had known her – I bet she had a tale to tell – like me ;)  My lips are sealed though just like hers. x

Dangerous Beauty

I just managed to watch this dvd.  I know, I know, I have been wanting to watch it for over a year now!  Anyway, I did it and it was good.  Thanks Mr N for the gift! x  It was  more of a love story than I thought it would be, ahhhh.  Some great lines in the film too and of course stunning location – Venice.  Try and watch it if you can.  Its also called The Honest Courtesan for some reason.

Mr M read my post about men’s underpants and bought me a rather fetching pair of Dolce & Gabanna boxers. Hehehehe   Very nice they look too, and ever so comfy, maybe I should wear men’s pants all the time ;). Thanks M!

How naughty am I?  Only just back from my hols and I am already getting itchy feet.  I fancy one of those spa breaks in Thailand or somewhere lush like that.  Just a chill out, pamperings, great food and fabulous sunsets.  You cant blame me really.  Its not as though we have had a great summer (again), I think I blinked when we  had those good few days. I get all excited, think this is it and peak too soon.  I should appreciate the moment better.  I know its a well worn cliche but summers really were better and longer when I was a kid.  No I didnt live in the Bahamas (but I may one day :)  Ho hum, Im off to check out some holiday sites.

Now you know I dont do quickies, but I couldnt resist…the joke I mean :)

While making love, he says:
- Darling, let’s do 68!
- 68??? What’s that?
- You do it to me and I’ll owe you one.

Hope you are having a good one if you are on holiday xxx

James Bond 007

I met a  kindly gent recently who said he felt like James Bond going through my screening/timewaster removal process.  He found it ever so exciting, and by proxy  I find that exciting!  Anyway, yes I do have a few leaps and bounds but the prize is always worth it ;)    Let me explain my system.  Well, first of all we have the email.  Email grunts like  ‘i wan u, call me‘  or ‘i need a **** , cum round now‘    will certainly get top priority, not.     A  lovely email, however, with a little introduction and some details about dates and times will definitely stimulate my interest :)

Emails from leaders of stag parties wanting me to perform all night for a bunch of drunken lads singing rugby songs and requests for unusual antics with ping pong balls usually get a polite ‘no thanks’  or even an impolite ‘buggar off’ reply.  Can you imagine?  No really, can you imagine??!!!!

I dont get many phone calls from uknown persons these days as I have taken my number off the site but the number still lurks around in the deep recesses of the net and contact mags (how 70′s is that?) steal details off online escort directories and then I get the odd call saying ”ow much luv?’ or ‘Got any details?’  I delight in these calls and give them my full attention, obviously.

So after the first initial introduction……  ohh you will just have to see.  What a tease I am!  hahaha xxx

Men’s Underpants

Commando?  Y-Fronts, Boxers, Long Johns, Thongs (Oh No Dear God, NO! :), Briefs, Jockey Shorts? – Oh dont you fellas have a lot of choice these days?

You can probably guess that I am not a great lover of the male thong, disturbing flash backs of Peter Stringfellow on the beach in ‘that‘ thong are just too potent for me to ever embark on an even slightly nonchalent fondness for that particular article of insanity.

I am not even a great lover of the y-front despite the stirling efforts of Mr Beckham.  Well done David. No really, WELL DONE!!    Readers of the youthful variety will be totally oblivious to the fact that the Y-front used to be the cause of great mirth and scorn. Especially yellow nylon ones.  I outdid myself oh special one this time and procured for you a purple pair of loveliness.

Here you go.  I compromised because they have a fetching yellow trim thereby satisfiying the most discerning of y-front pant lover.  I note that this one has an emblem on the front.  I am desperate to know what it is. I think. If you know, do I want to know?  Oh go on then :)

My favourites?  Oh I love a nice boxer. Boxer shorts are very sexy, yes indeedy. I like the traditional cotton ones and I also like those tight ones, ′a la Calvin Klein.  Oh I just came over all unneccesary!

Back in Blighty & Cancellations

Yes I am back!  I had a lovely break, thank you so much to everyone for the happy holiday wishes.

Now, a little about cancellations.. ..

Here is how I try to organise things.  I take very few bookings these days.  I usually know a week in advance what bookings I have and I plan my other life accordingly – yes I do have one ;)   Now, I know that sometimes life and stuff gets in the way and  plans cannot be fulfilled but I would ask you fellas to remember that I only see a very few special clients and therefore may have turned away several (lots of)  bookings to make sure your special day was honoured.  When I have a cancellation, this means that, as I dont take same day bookings, I will have lost out financially. Could you please, please ensure that you will be able to make your booking?  I have been thinking of ways around this, one being the system I have on my tours in that I have a cancellation list.  But I dont think that would work for normal bookings as gentlemen have usually made other arrangements when I tell them I am not available. So my other option is to have a deposit system, a lot of ladies do.  I already do this for my lunches and my dinners and it works really well.  Hmm I shall consider some more – what do you think?

Now then, I sound like a grumpy old mare just back from my hols dont I?  Im not, I promise.  I am rested, relaxed, tranquil, radiant and chilled.  Ok, ok a little bit OTT on the ‘I had a laid back time’  front, but I did, more than – honestly!

French Ferries

I have seen  a few chaps recently who are either about to board the Plymouth to Roscoff Ferry or have just disembarked the ferry back to dear old blighty with Brittany Ferries.  Lucky fellas who have super duper holiday homes in France, or happen to live there most of the time.  And how lucky am I that they decide to pop in on little ole me en route?  I havent been on that ferry or on that particular route for a long while but I do remember from the last time I did,  a rather splendid lunch.  Yes on a ferry!  Of course the chefs are French and of course they would rather cast themselves overboard than serve mediocre food, sacre bleu!!    Yes even on a ferry.  I have also heard tales that the service stations in France serve the most delicious cuisine, ok not Michelin star quality but more than adequate good food, food you want to hang around for an hour or two to savour  (not like ours – ahh therein lies another post/rant methinks :)

The French take their food very seriously. (Did I tell you I was 1/4 French, I think it is the bit where my mouth is :)   Now I also sometimes, actually most times, take my food very seriously too.  In terms of quality, provenance, cooking style and presentation.  I bet you think I talk about food all of the time! - well it is a passion of mine, but I sooo do not want to be a chef :)  I just want to partake, if I may?

Sometimes though, I just want a M&S ready meal – quick, nutritious and relatively cheap.  I also have to watch what I eat constantly, which can obviously be a real drag, yes, a real drag.  I dont like junk food,  in fact I hate it.  The thought of a Macdonald’s makes me come over all queasy.  However, I sometimes crave fish and chips (is that junk?, I dont think it is actually) I allow myself that, fish and chips with tartare sauce twice a year, omg, yum!  - I kid you not!  I never drink sugary, fizzy drinks.  Hell I dont even drink Juice – just water (and ahem, obviously champagne – a girl has to have some vices ;)  I dont eat too much chocolate or snacks – only when a kind gent supplies me with them – I have, you may have noticed taken the chocs off my wishlist recently.  What a good girl I am.

Now then,  here’s the point of all of this, if you look at naturally voluptuous ladies, (of which I think I am one)  they have always had a battle to stay slim.  Think Diana Dors.  Marilyn Monroe – who was a size 14 before she died, my guess is she would have been a lot bigger as she grew older.  Its a natural thing, I think for curvy girls to have a problem staying svelte.  Maybe we should all just let nature decide and eat whatever we want.  The thing is, I dont feel good when I put on a few pounds.  I feel sluggish and unhealthy. Besides that, I wouldnt be able to fit into my fancy pants!!   I try and listen to my body.  So my perfect solution??  The gym, oh and super healthy meals in between the gorgeous dinners and lunches we share.   The best of both worlds?  I think so.
