    I blundered into such a building, when my best school friend’s girlfriend’s mother apparently ran one of these. Thinking my friend and his girl were in one of those rooms or apartments, or whatever they were, I knocked on the doors, calling his name. Luckily no-one came out. I guess they were busy. (I could hear voices.) I can just imagine that you’ve nailed the atmosphere inside those rooms!

  • John Douglas replied

    I can see this story as a scene in a movie – I’m glad you survived!

    A delightful grouping of your joyous ART, John!
    Going from room to room as you did emits a soothing and spirited feeling.

  • John Douglas replied

    Thanks Mariam! I really saw this particular bordello (owned and run by a dear friend of mine) as a place of sexual healing – her attitude and the way the operation was run really had a good feeling – so I am thrilled that it comes across. xxx
