And as well as my last lecture and not very nice attitude (but I do stand by my values) I genuinely hope that you are ok and take care.

And also sorry if I sound patronising to Sugarmouse, I don't mean to but my unpopular values are there for a reason.

Lap dancing club is at corner of Dutton Street and Blackburn Road. Turn left into Blackburn Road. Next street on left is St. James' Street. Next one is Birch Street. Then Eagle Street - access to train station. Don't think trains will run late.

Dodgy?That's an ambiguous word, please what do you mean?

I think they were asked to turn up because somebody had said illegal doings were going on . I spoke to them and they said it seemed a false warning but they had to investigate.

I've been doing this job for almost eleven years, so this moment has been successful for quite some while, as has my attitude.

As for the not funny, well I stand by Oscar Wilde in believing that life is far too important to be taken seriously.

Lol they weren't there long. They probably came in for a perv :p

What about your attitude do you regard as 'Not Nice' please?

Standing by your values is commendable, I always do.

I'm fine thank you :)

You don't sound patronising. Nobody can patronise me without my consent.

Thank you-I am feeling more familiar now :) I like Accrington now, it was a bit of a strange place to me before :)

No matter how people might dress it up, you work in the sex industry as a sex worker which has a lot of risk attached to it and no matter whether you like it will portray you as a certain type of woman who is fair game to a lot of men you know nothing about and who will be likely to have a low opinion about you. Your audience won't consist entirely of stag night groups and nice lads out for a bit of fun, as I'm sure you know. It therefore makes you vulnerable. The sex industry has a lot of criminality associated to it at all levels. I think that although I agree with Oscar Wilde, you can enjoy life without risking your safety which you should take seriously. From a personal perspective I work with some dangerous people in a profession where personal safety is taken very seriously, I would never go glibly into a situation without having thought through potential risks and having strategies in place to keep me safe - I would never presume that I can handle things and nothing will happen to me - such an attitude displays a level of arrogance which could end up with a very bad situation. Your comment about the police suggests a fly attitude and whether you are joking or not I am certain that they were not looking for a "perv".
My previous comment about my posts coming across as "not nice" and sounding patronising - I meant that as an adult you are entitled to make your own decisions and do what you want and I have no right to either preach to you, lecture you or judge you. I suppose our values are just completely opposing - I couldn't do your job if my life depended on it, I would feel humiliated and debased - you are obviously comfortable with it and so I wish you well.

Think the point was she was sharing her opinion, even though it would be ill received by some, which is her right, so good on you Anne nothing wrong with speaking your mind, everyone is allowed an opinion, too many people these days " hide" how they feel about something, for fear of rocking the boat, you keep rocking girl, we won't capsize.
For what I have read of sugarmouse post, I don't think she will take offence or take it personally, and I am sure she has heard similar arguments to her trade throughout he 11 years.

Me personally, I would work there, but then again, I am vain me me me :D

I certainly do not assume nothing will happen to me. Have I come across as if I do?
I never try to dress it up , if anything I dress it down lol. I know I work in Adult Entertainment.
I am actually very careful. For example I am walked to my (well maintained) car at the end of the night, always let people know where I am, have the emergency number on speed dial in my mobile which is always kept charged (I actually have two).
My comment about the police, I was not about to panic because the police had turned up, it wasn't necessarily a bad thing hence why I put 'lol',in response to this thread which was began to discuss the club and whether it was a good or bad thing for Accrington-I did find it amusing that they came in. However there's not one club I have worked in where the police have not turned up once every few months for some reason or another.

I never feel humiliated-this job has been my saviour in many ways. I did quit for a few years whilst at University & that is one of my biggest regrets.

I did an office job as well-my mental health is still suffering from that. I was bullied and heavily mistreated and at the moment am in the middle of appealing my dismissal. (Not that I want the job back, I would not return to the place for any amount of money).
It's fine. I am a vegan stripper-I am used to living in a world where 99% of folk disagree with my every move lol :D

Lol :) no I don't take offence, I am pretty difficult to offend and it's an everyday thing for me. I suppose my happiness with myself and the job makes me come across as lighthearted/carefreeas if I do not take my safety seriously, and I actually do.

Last night I had a customer thrown out, I didn't ask for it, they just were because of their way of speaking to me. (A female customer).

Anyway, I came to post on this thread for not any reason other than to say I do not think I will book into iCandy for some time. I assume I am still allowed to post on AccingtonWeb.

One reason only, I tried working in Accrington to see what it was like and now I have I've realised that other places I work are more profitable for me when I work out my overheads (i/e when I do other clubs I make more money)!
I hope icandy does well though, it's a nice place and it's managed by some lovely people,I had a lot of fun last night and the last time I worked there. I will go back at some point if only for that reason!

Re: Lap Dance Club
 
I've had some good karma and some bad karma about my recent posts on this thread, thank you everyone good and bad. I hoped that I had been able to explain my feelings and beliefs that everyone should be able to do what they want within the law. However I also know that there are some very bad people out there ready to exploit people. I don't want to come across as labouring a point but felt I needed to respond to the people who have responded to me via the karma they sent me with no name attached. So as to this thread, I want people to know that I really do know that the sex industry no matter what has a seedy side and is part of a world that comes across as being exciting and fun but there is an underworld to it that most people wouldn't want to be part of. I've now said my bit about something I know a lot about and don't think I need to comment further no matter what karma I receive.

Anne, Karma means nothing, it won't pay the council tax.......Karma Shmarma!!!
You are entitled to your opinion which has been outlined quite clearly.
I have strong opinions too.......I couldn't do what sugarmouse does, but if she feels comfortable doing it, then so be it(and at least she is working at something she enjoys)....and I'm sure that during her time doing what she does, she has developed a gut instinct......and knows how to look after herself.

Thank you Margaret, as you might realise this is a subject I feel strongly about and it also reflects what I have experienced professionally with some very young girls, I think I've said enough on this topic so I'll shut up now, I just wanted to put my point across. (Unless someone else in the profession posts on here then I might need to reply at the risk of boring people!)

Have ++ to outweigh the bad. I very rarely leave negative karma. I don't see the point. But ++ is always nice.

Noticed this morning that there was an A board out side the newsagents on Broadway saying the lap dancing club is up for sale....haven't seen the LT so don't know the whole story......and it doesn't seem to be in the online version(or if it is I have had no success locating it).

Sunflower49 11-02-2014 11:56
Re: Lap Dance Club
 
I knew it had shut down, but didn't know why. I am curious though and I've just sent one of the 'current' dancers a text asking if she knows.

I suspect it fell on hard times, they weren't permitted to advertise and various customers of mine when I mentioned it, didn't know it was there even some who lived near it.

I loved working there, and I miss it, but even with my expertise it wasn't easy to make money, and generally if the dancers don't earn the club doesn't earn.

The manager who owned the business was lovely, I have a lot of admiration for her as a person, for personal reasons, we talked a lot.

She had suffered a lot for trying so hard to make it work and treated the staff and dancers with a lot of respect and care. I've emailed her asking if I can help with anything.

I'll update the thread if I find out anything further I could be completely wrong with my thoughts on why iCandy closed down.

Re: Lap Dance Club
 
To be honest, I think it was just in the wrong place.
Accrington is not a hub of entertainemt....either night time or day time....andit was never going to be the stag night capital of the North West.

Sunflower49 11-02-2014 12:19
Re: Lap Dance Club
 
That's true! I'm no expert on Accrington but I know whenever I mentioned it to a customer of mine the reactions were to the lines of 'What?!A club in ACCRINGTON!!??'

I had some profitable nights there-but only through sheer business sense. A friend of mine worked there one night and didn't make any money at all.

I have never understood the attraction of a lapdance venue.
I know a bloke who visited the spearmint rhino in London; 1 hour later his wallet wasŁ400 lighter and he had consumed all of 3 whisky's.
And yet he said it was one of the best nights of his life.
I don't get it.

Re: Lap Dance Club
 
I've spoken to a few of the club's previous dancers, general consensus is it wasn't making enough money. None can confirm they know for sure, though.

To be honest its a knocking bet it wasn't making enough money, Can remember a pub in town having topless barmaids,many moons ago, That didn't last long, pub is long gone, Accys only a small town n fair to say a small town mentality exists imho.:)
