Merged Threads Not worth Reading

IMHO, The advert on online reviews is killing the game, there is no longer the thrill of going somewhere booking a lady and thinking what will this be like, we jump online and a few reviews are telling us what it will be like from someone else's point of view, so we don't book that WL, so the review system to me is stuffed and should be really outlawed its like a tripadvisor for sex workers.. one persons rubbish is another treasure. :) and the whole game since Twitter, chat rooms for punters and escorts, snapchat, tumblr and even working ladies own websites is making the line between client/worker very blurred. The Internet is killing alot of things now and its killing them for good, working ladies posting pictures of them doing personal activities like going to a gym. getting lips enhanced etc etc, so is that say Ruby the working lady or is that the real lady "Debbie"s life you are seeing an inside to, the review system should be outlawed...


And I wonder how many working ladies think they are sending MMS's to clients or potential clients and forget to turn location services off on their smart phones so they are sending these images from what is their home to a client and said client looks at picture and then finds out where said working lady actually lives.....

When his wife Sherry lamented that her washing kept falling on the ground, Lance Hill put his inventive mind to work. He took some scrap pipe, welded it together in an unusual way and propped it up in the yard of their Adelaide home. Mr Hill couldn't have known it back then but his design would soon be seen far and wide across Australia - and become a national icon.
Times have changed since 1945 but the sturdy Hills Hoist remains. "In those days what they had was a line with a stick under it to hold it up," Mr Hill's great niece and current Hills Chairwoman Jennifer Hill-Ling explains.
"If you got a bit of a breeze the stick would fall down and all your washing would fall onto the ground. "So they needed something that permanently held the line up - and hence he designed the first Hills Hoist." It soon became clear that Sherry and Lance weren't the only family in Adelaide with clothesline troubles. Friends and neighbours were in admiration of their rotating drying device. "They started to make a couple for people they knew and then other people saw it," Ms Hill-Ling said. "Word of mouth in those days was strong. There were lots of people looking for a better way to dry their clothes." The war was over and hoists were in demand. Mr Hill's brother-in-law Harold Hill-Ling came on board to help with the commercial aspects as the business diversified. "They added a laundry trolley and other drying accessories," Ms Hill-Ling said. "Eventually they decided they would start a tube mill to make the tube that was used in the clotheslines. "Then there was the advent of television, so they went into making antennas. "We made ironing boards, we made ladders, all those sorts of things." They also made a swing set, a logical move since kids were already swinging on the Hoist. Hills is now a large public company focusing on technology solutions for the health, surveillance and security sectors. But it all started with that famous clothesline, which turns 70 this month. To mark the occasion Hills will stage a charity event to raise money for research into pancreatic cancer. The public can get involved by buying a pair of socks from a Masters hardware store for $2. For each sock sold, Hills will hang one up in Elder Park in Adelaide on November 14 on one of 70 of the company's iconic hoists.

The Adelaide Christmas Pageant is a parade held annually in the South Australian capital of Adelaide. It is the largest event of its kind in the world, attracting crowds of over 400,000 and televised to millions more.[citation needed] Recognised as a heritage icon, the pageant is a state institution and is sponsored by four local credit unions. Since 1996 it has been known as the Credit Union Christmas Pageant. Established in 1933, the event is staged on the second Saturday of November every year, usually from 9.30am. It comprises a procession of 85 sets and 1,700 volunteers, including some 63 floats, 15 bands, 164 clowns, dancing groups, and walking performers, all culminating in the arrival of Father Christmas. The pageant takes place in the Adelaide city centre, along a 3.35 kilometre route which commences on King William Street at South Terrace, and concludes on North Terrace, wherefrom Father Christmas proceeds to the Magic Cave, originally in the John Martin's building, and now in the rebuilt David Jones building on the same site.
History
Adelaide's Christmas Pageant was founded by Sir Edward Hayward, owner of the Adelaide department store John Martin's, who was inspired by the Toronto Santa Claus Parade and Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. He opened the first 'Children's Christmas Parade' on 18 November 1933 at the height of the Great Depression. It was a success; running for around 40 minutes with just 8 floats and 3 bands, it attracted 200,000 spectators and from then the tradition of the John Martin's Christmas Pageant or as it was affectionately known the 'Johnnie's Christmas Pageant' was born. Father Christmas was introduced in 1934 and tradition of the pageant finishing at the Magic Cave (itself created in 1905) was established. During the war years of 1941-1944, the pageant was in abeyance. It was restored in 1945. By 1969, the event had grown significantly, with attendances reaching 500,000 and television broadcasting commencing. In 1979, the largest induction of new floats took place, with 16 joining the pageant.
In 1985, John Martin's was acquired by David Jones Limited, who continued the pageant under the John Martin's name. However, with the collapse of the Adelaide Steamship Group (of which David Jones was a significant member), and the public float of the David Jones retailing arm, in the mid-1990s the South Australian Government acquired the event. It sought sponsorship from the South Australian business community, and in 1996 sold the naming rights to the six South Australian Credit Unions: Australian Central, Savings & Loans, Community CPS, PowerState, Satisfac and the Police Credit Union. Today, the pageant is managed by Events South Australia, a division of the South Australian Tourism Commission. As a result of mergers, the current naming right sponsors are People's Choice Credit Union, Beyond Bank Australia, Credit Union SA and Police Credit Union.[12] One Johnnie's tradition that the credit unions have been delighted to continue is that of the Pageant Queen. In 2009 a Pageant King and Princes were introduced to the Pageant and with the Pageant Queen and Princesses make up the Pageant Royal Family. The Royal Family tour the state visiting schools, libraries and children's groups as well as the Women's and Children's Hospital on Pageant Day to share the Pageant magic.
Broadcast
The Pageant is broadcast officially by NWS-9, the local affiliate of the Nine Network. For many years the broadcast was carried separately by both SAS-7 and ABS-2.
