The booking thread, and everything that lives inside it
The thread is the single written conversation a booking runs through, and it is where the hour, the format, the address and the money are all settled.
Everything on this site happens in writing. One conversation, kept in one place, holding every detail of one booking. That is the thread, and it exists because two people planning around a sailing need to be able to scroll back rather than remember.
What a first message should carry
The date and a start hour. The length. Whether the two of you want one therapist or a therapist each. The district you are staying in, with the exact address to follow once it is confirmed. A word about the trip, because a sailing in the morning changes the advice you get back. If a particular woman on the roster is the reason you are writing, name her, and say whether the hour matters more than the person or the other way round.
What comes back
Who is free for the hour you asked about, what that costs for the format you described, and, where the timing looks tight against a boarding hour, a note saying so. The reply names what is free. It does not put a different woman in front of you in place of the one you asked for.
Where the money is settled
In the thread and nowhere else. The deposit figure and where to send it appear there once the hour is agreed, and no part of that is ever published on the site or sent through any other channel. Anything arriving from somewhere else did not come from the house.
Only one written address
Until this domain has a messaging account of its own, the way to open a thread is [email protected], and the contact page says the same. Nothing else is the house.
