Whitechapel 2009 prostitutes "work" at murder sites?

Discount

Robert,

Gives poinant meaning to the words.. "just for jolly, would'nt you"
and end up totally "canon-ised" as a result...

A night out doing the complete JTR thing would need, as a bonus, samples of locally fried, flat "killer" fish 'n' chips.

Yup... Jack the Kipper

oh dear Im scraping the barrel now

best fisheries

I wonder if the punters get a discount on the Stride site....in case they're interrupted....

When you think about it, David Wilson's claim and the article in the East London Advertiser of 7 October 1988 (thanks for posting, John!) are both pretty silly in a way, because a prostitute now as back then is likely to be "moved on" by a copper if they try to do a sex act in a public location. More likely they would seek a location where they could get the act done quickly . . . money in hand.

I imagine all the ripper groups doing the sites these days might dampen the ardour of any oddball trying to get his jollies at one of them.

That goes for people attempting to use quiet alleys to go 'wee wees'. Last night, two youths snuck down Gunthorpe Street to have a surreptitious leak, only to find that their furtive releif was interrupted by the sudden arrival of me and a 40-strong Ripper tour.

"That'll learn yer!" as my sister would say...

You should have seen the look on the faces of two couples from Norfolk as they turned into Mitre Square recently, and they were merely subjected to Liza lying in 'the spot' with her legs in the air.

They were suitably pacified though when introduced to Philip and Rob and I showed them the new edition of The London of JtR.

Love,

This may be of interest. From the East London Advertiser, 7 Oct 1988.

Thats one for the Ripperologist Mag on the top shelf!

Hmmmmm Garry- as Ally said ________________!!

I seem to recall years ago here there was a thread started re characters who 'er shall we say 'Got Off' at Ripper sites....I may have made that up- but I'm sure I didn't! (made that up I mean!)

I find the clients who want to do it ( so to speak ) on that spot more bizarre and disturbing than the pro's trying to make more money...

Word to that. At least the prostitutes would only be doing it for the extra money, but the punters in question? WTF. It's kind of scary actually.

[Ally]

In my experience, the local girls charge between ten and twenty pounds -.

you get what you pay for

Hello Caz. And presumably the Berner street site commands but 6d. What can one expect for 2 seconds of "entertainment"? (forgive me--couldn't resist)

The best.

In my experience, the local girls charge between ten and twenty pounds - this being commensurate with both the service required and the present price of crack. Now there's an offer you can refuse.

Yeah, the Mary Kelly site would be £100 - so much younger, don't you know, if not prettier.

While I was on Phil's tour in Sept. 2008 I remember when we were in Angel Alley near the Martha Tabram site, he described it as being "still used by the local hookers if you've got twenty pounds on you." I guess the rates vary.
