Avery Koster Brothel ❤️

About Johannesburg

Oh, and here’s a weird nugget—some brothels had “menu” books! Like a dang diner! Pick yer gal, pick yer “special,” Git-R-Done! Cracked me up thinkin’ ‘bout some cowboy flippin’ pages, “Hmm, reckon I’ll take the Tuesday two-fer.” Wild, man! But it’s real—historians found ‘em in old cathouses. Ain’t that a hoot?

Look, Koster (za) ain't perfect. It's gritty, messy, and a bit of a clown show sometimes. But that’s what makes it bloody brilliant. Every shoddy storefront, every pissed-off tale at Crazy Pete’s Pub, makes this town a living, breathing beast. So, buckle up, enjoy the ride – and remember to call me up when you get here, else you’ll miss the best parts. Cheers, ya muppet, and see ya soon!
