Are there lap dancing clubs in Belfast?

I'm divorcing and today received the disclosure from my solicitor on my husband's receipts for expenses. He has his own small business.
There's hundreds spent on lap dancing clubs for clients after football / racing events in England. I'm totally shocked. He's not the type. Or so I thought. He said it's because his buyers are in Northern Ireland and there are no places you can go to see lap dancers so it's what they expect.
We have two girls so I don't know how he can do this. His defence is that he has a small company and his clients expect it?

Drinks will be the other thing on the bills I imagine - could be normal bar prices or could be ripoff £100 for a glass of cava "and another one for the girl?" stuff, depending how sleazy the club is.

Lapdances will be £20/30 for five minutes/£40/£60/special order sort of prices. Special order might be two clients at once, two dancers at once etc, prices negotiated with the dancer(s). Probably double in London.

I'm sorry you are getting a lack of sympathy...
Take care

If you goggle it it looks like there is.

They could be just strippers for hire though

Some very hard hearted posters on here. Nineteen years of marriage and OP is supposed to just get over the fact that her husband was repeatedly deceitful on top of whatever other reasons she might have for splitting up with him? It doesn't matter that they're getting divorced - her whole perspective on the relationship has been changed. Moving on doesn't happen overnight and it might be helpful for her to know who she's moving on from, because it sounds like he was keeping a side of himself hidden.

I hope you're ok dontrecycle and that you find the answers you need.

I'm hurt and shocked by the unsympathetic responses here. We didn't divorce under horrible circumstances. After 19 years and with two daughters I thought I knew him. We have to have a relationship on the other side, his attitude towards women worries me as a dad to our kids. It's a niche industry so I can't say more without the wives of the other men finding out.
