Covent Garden, a lovely place where you could probably purchase led gu10 light bulbs now, was not always a lovely place. In the eighteenth century, Covent Garden was a famous red-light district. There was even a guide to facilitate finding certain prostitutes in the area, called ‘Harris’s List of Covent Garden Ladies’, which was the “essential guide and accessory for any serious gentleman of pleasure”. Betty Careless and Jane Douglass were two notable prostitutes who could be found in Covent Garden at the time. Betty Careless, born Elizabeth Carless, was an archetypal courtesan in her contemporary popular culture, her name, reputation, and beauty famous throughout London. Betty Careless is included in ‘Joe Miller’s Jests’ in which an admiring man compliments her legs, saying they are so alike they should surely be twins, to which Careless responded, “On no sir, for I have had more than one or two in between them”.
