The register, the twenty eight companions the desk books
This is the whole of it. Twenty eight women, each with a page of her own carrying her photographs, her colouring, her age band, the district she works from and the kind of evening she is best at. Nobody is hidden behind a login.
Read two or three pages before you write, and pick a first choice with a second in reserve, because evenings fill. If you would rather not choose, say what the evening is and the desk will put two names forward with a reason for each.
The desk · 02
How to read an entry
Each page opens with a line about how she comes across, then a longer piece about how she runs an evening, then the plain facts: height, build, hair and eyes, age band, languages and her usual district. A companion who is away says so, with the date she comes back.
The desk · 03
Where each companion works from
Every entry names a district, and that is where she is most often sent rather than a boundary she cannot cross. Any companion will travel to any district the desk covers, and what changes with distance is the arrival window, not the figure. The full list sits on the service area page.
The desk · 04
The photographs, and what they are
Every photograph shows the woman on whose page it sits, made in a proper session rather than gathered from somewhere else. They are glamour and lifestyle images, faces softened, nothing explicit, and no picture here belongs to a stock library. The photo policy sets out how they are made and how often they are replaced.

What the register does not do
It does not rank anybody, price anybody differently, or carry a list of services. Every companion is booked on the same ladder, from £250 for an hour, printed on the rates page. Twenty eight is the number: when a companion stops working with the desk her page comes down rather than staying up to pad the list.
The desk · 06
Choosing, and then writing
Write with her name, the date, the start time, the length and the address, whether that is a hotel room in the West End or a flat in the City. The booking page sets out what happens next.

Your turn
One line is enough
Write the district, the hour and the number of hours. What comes back has a name in it, a time in it and a figure in it, and nothing moves after that.
