This week I fly solo again.

I talk about having a wobbly week and how one dusts themselves down and picks up themselves up and how it's fine to have a wobbly week!

My main topic is to go back through my own experience of London's Gay Scene and my days in Earls Court - The Colherne pub and it's extremely well known clientele, the early experiences of clubbing and then heading into Soho and Old Compton Street.

I chat about the history behind London's notorious 'Molly houses' right through to how Soho was affected by the bombing of the Admiral Duncan in the late 90's.
I look forward to expanding further into the LGBTQ history on my city in further episodes.
