Prostitute 2008: Sovereign Street - Leeds

Now features on "Leeds By Night" vid

On this occasion I fell for the wily charms of a local prostitute. She asked for two quid for chips and a coffee whilst I asked for some photos for posterity in exchange! Not only is she a prostitute by profession but in this instance an Officer of Fair Trade ;O)

 

Despite her seemingly lax approach she is not unwise to the prying eyes of CCTV in the vicinity and does her best to avoid them whilst working.

 

Although local vice in the Holbeck/Sovereign Street area can be the object of scorn, I find the experience of meeting them, for some reason, personally upsetting!

 

But disregarding these observations, she seems happy in herself and agreed she is a part of local history as is any other tradesperson within Leeds.
