I can imagine, even if it is legal, that planning committees would never approve such a thing. There'd be uproar in the local community, worries about sex pests and perverts etc coming to the area etc. I think this would only work if you kept it very low profile and well out of the sight of the LA.
What about the sex pests and perverts who already live there? Suburban head-in-the-sand Nimbyism. Tut.TROOPER88 said:
Quite a few have mentioned a brothel.
Whilst many will have taken this as little more than a joke, I think it works,.
Does anyone have a good understanding of the legalities of the business?
There was a documentary on recently about a mother and daughter running a brothel in a Northern town, cant remember where tbh.
I just had a very quick look on the net and the first thing I found was: 'it is not a crime to sell sex in a brothel, unless the worker is involved in the management of the business'
So, just as an example, person A owns a 2 bedroom property. Person A resides at said property alone so decides to set up a brothel in the spare bedroom.
Person A finds a prostitute/s who is/are prepared to offer their services 5 nights a week from the spare bedroom splitting costs 50/50.
The prostitute see's an average of 5 clients in an evening at an average cost of £80 per hour.
£400 / 2 X 5 nights a week = £1000 each per week
Legal?
Possible?
I live in an affluent Surrey town with a population of 7000. There is no brothel that I am aware of.
The prostitute isn’t breaking the law but the homeowner would be living from immoral earnings.Whilst many will have taken this as little more than a joke, I think it works,.

Two quick ideas to run past you :-
I run a local sweet and coffee shop and I was thinking of taking in parcels for people that can not be at home during the day and delivering them early evening. I know that I would pay someone £3.95 or so a parcel if it meant me getting say a car part the next day rather than waiting for the weekend or having to go to the post office to collect. Local people could just sign up via a basic website stating the hours that they will be able to take parcels, then when one arrives at the shop I could deliver it that day.
Not sure about insurance for parcels etc? Obviously a lot more to think about...
2nd would be a simple Rubbish tip service. Get a huge van and take s
t to the tip for people. I would need to check the local tip for charges etc but it could work as skips aren't cheep these days and people just want stuff gone asap. This is just thinking aloud ! So probably nonsense but there you go.
