My first time was in London England around 1974. It was a great experience. At the time it cost me GBP 5 (around $10), of course condoms were not used. Can you imagine how much fun could have been had if internet existed at the time!!

Just like their Women and Cars you can rely on Germans to deilver the goods, so I am going with them.
