"That's brill to know! There are a massive number of clubs in the north west are though - probably the biggest concentration of clubs in the country! My only concern is that there are a finite number of swingers to go round - and many clubs are already quiet on non-party nights - particularly in the Manchester area where there are several clubs! Having said that - if a new club DOES open I'll gladly give it a try! Xx" Fully agree with this. I would prefer a few busy clubs than lots of not so busy clubs. It is good that we are getting a club nearer to home but just hope it takes off as at the moment, none of the clubs seem to be as busy as they were a few years ago. | |||

"You've hit the nail on the head. Private parties (a lot of which take money off people and don't declare it btw!!) have affected a lot of clubs around the country. I have no problem whatsoever with people earning a few quid, but when some are running parties regularly and then don't declare their earnings it does gall me. Clubs have massive overheads and some of us pull out all the stops to present a venue which is safe, clean and varied in it's calendar of events. They are not the goldmines that many people think they are and private parties that run regular and don't pay tax stick in my throat. Townhouse actually does well as we are on our own on our little peninsular but Manchester is saturated with clubs. The only nights that can be hit and miss in our place are Sundays. Our daytime events do well and the nights in general are well attended. But I know other clubs can struggle a little at times and private parties are not helping. The new club in Preston will just make other clubs in the area raise their bar. It will be a positive for guests as there will be variety and the current clubs will offer more to attract customers in. Clubs need guests to support them more online. I've heard people say 'It's a little quiet tonight'. I say, 'well did you tell people online that you were coming over tonight?'. The answer is usually 'No'. A club can use many avenues to market their events but actually the biggest and most successful method of raising the profile of a club and getting more people in, is word of mouth. If guests are not prepared to help their club by telling folk online that they are going, joining discussion on forums and sticking the odd status up to say they are going, then they shouldn't complain when there aren't more people there. Swingers clubs are members clubs and we need our members to support all of the clubs more by talking and sharing. As for private house/apartment parties (I call them tax free havens), I don't believe people should pay for them. If someone wants to run a party, they should be prepared to pay the overheads and ask guests to chip in with drinks and food. Anywayyyy, I will step down from my soapbox now and shut the feck up!!! lol xxx" | |||

"Fortunately were pretty busy as were in the centre of Manchester and have a young clientele that we've worked hard to get. Raising the bar won't be that hard up the m61 " Crikey, we was thinking of trying Amour but don't think we fit into the Young clientele Think we will stick with the ones up the M61. | |||

"The rumours seem to have some substance to them and there does seem to be a website of such. Good luck to them and we wish them well. We hear the usual moans of new clubs and saturation of the scene but vanilla businesses have had to deal with competition so why wouldn't we expect the same for swing/scene clubs. Same with house or private parties every credit to anyone wanting to do something and they still work hard for that evening so its not money easily earned. Hairdresser's and Nail technician have had to deal with home workers or mobile workers for years and we see no difference really corner shops have had to deal with the expresses many a supermarket have set up near them. Clubs will improve, some will go and some will stay its the way it is. The scene will benefit as it has with the variation of venue and clubs around. Just our humble opinion " It will all sort itself out eventually, look at nightclubs in towns, the good ones always remain popular and the shite ones keep trying to reinvent themselves till the eventually close..... | |||

It won't detract from our most favourite place to go (Townhouse we love you), but on the weekends I'm working in the daytime and we are able to play out it's a little far to go to get there at a decent hour.

"Why are private parties more popular than clubs now? Iv been to a party, and you pay entrance fee, so it's the same as a swingers club. Swingers club has more facilities, so I'd rather go to a club " Because guests can be hand picked I reckon, dunno, for me you can't beat a good party night in a club | |||

I wont name it but if you google "swinger club Preston" then look for the name of a famous Dutch swinger club all will be revealed. | |||

"Says in the add. £2500 Not rocket science " Yeah but how do you know they don't already have the funds to pay??? Do you personally know what is in their bank accounts or are you bitter because you know who is looking to rent it? | |||

"Some landlords are so desperate to rent commercial property at the moment that they are willing to do deals; it's a well known fact and why new businesses are popping up everywhere. Some offer reduced rent for so many months or no deposit or incentives for signing a longer contract. This is because the government are enforcing a high taxation on empty properties so it's actually better and cheaper for landlords to take a drop in rent as it's better than paying the tax. So any adverts online are a guide and what agents are hoping to achieve for their commission. Most business deals don't actually closeout on the original advertised price; that's quite a well known fact in the current climate. Also as a new business they will pay 0% business rates and will have capital allowances on various things in their first year. So actually, the monthly outlay probably won't be as high as you'd expect. The main outlay is the furnishing and kitting out of a club, which can be offset against tax. There's no point speculating on other people's business though as it's just that, speculation. I am personally right behind anyone who has the balls to open up a club as it's feckin hard and comes up against a lot of resistance. As for Liverpool...we've sat across the desk with council very recently as an established and highly thought of club and it's still an absolute No. The same goes for Sefton, Knowsley, widnes/ Warrington and Chester. They will give Temporary Events Notices for one off parties but with restrictions and the restrictions are just too tight for what swingers want to do. There is a very good reason why Liverpool won't allow a swingers and haven't does for nearly 10 years, but I'm not willing to share that here. Xxx" Sorry for my typos, I was on my phone and not concentrating! Try again... There is a very good reason why Liverpool won't allow a swingers club and haven't done for nearly 10 years, but I'm not willing to share that here. | |||

"Tens would imply alcohol license Hence why most are Byo Private club membership circumnavigates a lot of red tape Hats off to any one that starts there own business. We run a few limited companies and it's tough what ever field your in. We run 26 truck and with warehousing so are well aware of over heads. Free rates depend on rateable value as retail rate relief is not possible on swinging clubs " We get free business rates | |||

"Sefton and Knowsley will allow a private members club but not licensed Though we could all do the unlicensed unregulated private party set ....could advertise my mates 2 bed council flat as a penthouse party and throw a few bottles of wkd in " Haha...hey why not!! | |||

"Oh and like I said, there is a good reason why Liverpool won't allow a swingers club...they would allow 'certain events' that require an alcohol licence or a TEN but it wouldn't be called a swinging event or fetish event, hence why it's just not suitable for swingers. But that's as far as I go on that one. " I'm rather intrigued by this and you're not sharing!! | |||

"You've hit the nail on the head. Private parties (a lot of which take money off people and don't declare it btw!!) have affected a lot of clubs around the country. I have no problem whatsoever with people earning a few quid, but when some are running parties regularly and then don't declare their earnings it does gall me. Clubs have massive overheads and some of us pull out all the stops to present a venue which is safe, clean and varied in it's calendar of events. They are not the goldmines that many people think they are and private parties that run regular and don't pay tax stick in my throat. Townhouse actually does well as we are on our own on our little peninsular but Manchester is saturated with clubs. The only nights that can be hit and miss in our place are Sundays. Our daytime events do well and the nights in general are well attended. But I know other clubs can struggle a little at times and private parties are not helping. The new club in Preston will just make other clubs in the area raise their bar. It will be a positive for guests as there will be variety and the current clubs will offer more to attract customers in. Clubs need guests to support them more online. I've heard people say 'It's a little quiet tonight'. I say, 'well did you tell people online that you were coming over tonight?'. The answer is usually 'No'. A club can use many avenues to market their events but actually the biggest and most successful method of raising the profile of a club and getting more people in, is word of mouth. If guests are not prepared to help their club by telling folk online that they are going, joining discussion on forums and sticking the odd status up to say they are going, then they shouldn't complain when there aren't more people there. Swingers clubs are members clubs and we need our members to support all of the clubs more by talking and sharing. As for private house/apartment parties (I call them tax free havens), I don't believe people should pay for them. If someone wants to run a party, they should be prepared to pay the overheads and ask guests to chip in with drinks and food. Anywayyyy, I will step down from my soapbox now and shut the feck up!!! lol xxx" | |||

"All gone quiet, has it fizzled out then? A Preston club would be handy for me living in Southport. At present it's about an hours drive for me to get to most existing clubs." Am sure over the next few weeks more info will be available Inc an approx opening date | |||

"Interesting that you say Warrington and Chester are no-go areas but what about in-between at Northwich? I ask because it has a very large, popular gay sauna in the town that draws clientele from all over the North. If the council allow that, surely they would have to allow a swingers club too? In fact, that location used to run swingers and fetish nights as well some years ago but then decided to concentrate just on the gay market. I even know a location that might be suitable - a detached, closed pub/restaurant on a main road, with a car park and no residential housing nearby. I don't have the money or experience to attempt something like this though but I wish someone would do in this area - we're near enough an hour from any club..." Liverpool has gay saunas, lap dancing bars and brothels that the council/police turn a blind eye to. But a swingers club?? They don't want to know. Same thing over there. Sauna Sauna in Northwich has been going for years with no problems whatsoever, so it should be a good 'role model' if you like for a green light on a swingers club. But it seems not. I have been given several reasons by Liverpool council of why they won't allow a permanent club in the area and none of them make sense to me; I'm sure I would hear the same reasons in the Vale Royal area too. xxx | |||

" The club at Sauna Sauna in Northwich was called Toga Toga. Lack of support killed it. We went quite a few times and it never got anywhere near busy. They decided to revert to just men only because swingers did not go there. Had it been well attended it might well still be a swingers venue on weekend nights. It did suffer from bad publicity from supporters of a rival club at the time though which didn't help. | |||

Back to the old swinger discrimination which just wouldn't be allowed now in the LGBT community! | |||

"More clubs the better. Gives customers choice and raises the bar between good and indifferent clubs Just all need more support as the private paid party's don't have the overheads or safety clubs offer " As was said above in my second post.

Alot of parties simply happen because clubs have prices which deter single men and discriminate openly. It's about time clubs charge a fairer price and gave group bookings a discount. A single is a single regardless of gender. Most private parties do not charge they might put food on and friends will chip in and if ever there is money left over it gets donated to a charity | |||

"I'm definitely looking forward to this, It will be great to have a club pretty much on my doorstep. From the Club Entice profile it certainly looks that it's going to be a classy place. Certainly what Preston needs and will also be better for my bank balance not having to get taxis, trains etc. I wish you every success with it and hope I will be able to see you there soon." We'd be delighted to welcome you to the club and thank you for your comment. We hope you enjoy the place as much as we've enjoyed creating a venue for everyone's tastes. It will have a classy and sophisticated look with modern interior designs | |||
