Colinjb Posted 31 August, 2015 Share Posted 31 August, 2015 He had quite a life, although he would not have chosen the attention he played an important role in progessing LGBT rights due to his trial in the 1950's. A very important man in the cultural history of the UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unbelievable Jeff Posted 31 August, 2015 Share Posted 31 August, 2015 Be interesting to know if any stories emerge about him. Certainly were a lot of rumours where I am from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rod Stewart hit "Maggie May" was about a lady who Rod lost his virginity to at the 1961 Beaulieu Jazz Festival. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spotter Posted 2 September, 2015 Share Posted 2 September, 2015 Its sad he has passed away, I hope that Beaulieu museum doesnt change as a result. I am taking the Trabant down to the Autojumble on Sunday which is a cracking day out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember it like it was yesterday. All my troubles seemed so far away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
