Four in their thirties, and four long evenings
Four women on this desk are in their thirties, which makes this the shortest age list here. It is also the one most often asked for by guests who have booked a great many evenings elsewhere and know exactly what they want from one.
All four are better across a long evening than a short one, and all four will say so themselves. None of them fills a silence for the sake of it, which people find alarming for about ten minutes and restful thereafter.
Thirties and beyond, on the board
The four
Margo is slim at 166 cm with long dark brown hair worn straight, understated to the point of severity and composed throughout. She takes the country house evenings out around Burnham and Taplow, where nothing is walkable and she says so rather than letting a guest discover it.
Violetta is the tallest name here at 178 cm, tall and slender with sleek black hair, and used to being looked at without minding. She holds a table on the river in Windsor and would rather walk home than be driven.
Nancy is curvy at 170 cm, golden blonde with blue eyes, and at her best with the Thames going past, which means an hour at Boulters before dinner. Sonya is athletic at 162 cm with dark hair and hazel eyes, and she is unbothered by a business park that empties at six.
What they are usually booked for
Long shapes, mostly. A dinner date at £900 is the commonest booking across these four, and an overnight at £1,800 is not unusual. Margo is direct that an hour out where she works buys you a drive and a drink, and she is right about it. Nancy wants three hours as a minimum so the river and the table both fit.
Violetta holds a whole evening comfortably and will book the table before she confirms. Sonya is the one to ask when the night is happening near the airport and you would rather have somebody who knows the area than somebody who has looked it up.
Choosing among four
Height runs from Sonya at 162 cm to Violetta at 178. Margo and Violetta have brown eyes, Sonya hazel and Nancy blue. Beyond that the choice is mostly a matter of place. Margo for Burnham, Taplow and a house with grounds. Violetta for Windsor, Eton or Datchet and a table on the water. Nancy for Maidenhead and an hour at the lock before dinner. Sonya for West Drayton and the hotels between Stockley Park and the terminals. If two of them suit equally, ask Etta which is nearer your hotel and let that decide it.
Where the four also appear
Margo and Violetta are both on the slim and slender list, Nancy on curvaceous and Sonya on both petite and toned and athletic. Violetta is also statuesque and raven haired, while Nancy is one of the four blondes and Margo and Sonya sit among the brunettes.
The younger bands are early twenties and late twenties, and the ladder does not change between any of them. It runs from £250 for an hour and is set out on rates.
Flag her down
Give a town and give an hour. What comes back has a name in it, the minute she can knock and the figure for those hours, all three in the one reply.
