I did say that I was merely a humble waiter at the time-although I have had a long and varied career since-a jack of all trades, so to speak , but master of none but I don't believe I've ever inferred I was " famous, connected and successful". Indeed I was told at a very young age by a clairvoyant I would live a "millionaire's life without a pot to piss in" and my life seems to have taken that course intentionally or otherwise. Rupert did recall me though-at a dinner party several weeks later when he was perusing the table for a prospective screw and when someone mentioned me he said quiet loudly-"oh no, already had that one !". He remembered me a few years later when we were both in the Bahamas and staying at side-by-side houses, he at Richard Harris's. However he didn't remember me when I met him again when he was guest of honour at the 2007 Gay & Lesbian Mardi Gras in Sydney.<BR/>Would Holly remember where she was in the late 70's, early 80s (or if she was assailed by a drunk) ?. I can hardly remember where I was. But she was most certainly at Madisons and I have the photos to prove it.<BR/><BR/>even more love,<BR/>veritasAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30643113.post-66311708066527689232009-01-31T16:11:00.000+00:002009-01-31T16:11:00.000+00:00Can we have some extracts from Mr Fallowell's diar...Can we have some extracts from Mr Fallowell's diary of that time?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30643113.post-79984319328956280392009-01-31T14:06:00.000+00:002009-01-31T14:06:00.000+00:00I wrote to Holly at MySpace.

MA darling, I wonder if you can get Holly to resolve this quandary… how did you get in touch with her?<BR/><BR/>It is understandable that Rupert would not remember a one time stand a billion years ago, as he has said himself he couldn’t keep it in his pants then (and still can’t), but if it is true that Veritas got to be so “pally” with Holly (that kind of rhymes, doesn’t it? Maybe a good name for a movie) I would think that she would remember him (the lady seems to be very loyal to friendship).<BR/><BR/>Personally, I think Veritas has a portal to one of those parallel worlds where we are famous, connected and successful and she spends way too much time on that side. It would have helped to have had an invisible friend when he was little; I’m sure he would have grown out of it.<BR/>OXAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30643113.post-44455029416957609502009-01-31T13:28:00.000+00:002009-01-31T13:28:00.000+00:00Thank you for the Marilyn link, I've often wondere...Thank you for the Marilyn link, I've often wondered what he's up to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30643113.post-78763767088180577492009-01-31T13:21:00.000+00:002009-01-31T13:21:00.000+00:00I've faced a griling before..so why not the wonder...I've faced a griling before..so why not the wonderful Madame Arcati !

I then rented Madisons for a year as a rehearsal studio to launch an ill-fated group "Girl" .<BR/>Apart from the opening of Madisons- where I and one of then only 3 paparazzi in London organised an incident where I spilled drinks on Margaret Trudeau, thus garnering fabulous front page coverage the next day-there were few incidents at either Madisons or Country Cousins. There was some brilliant bitching from Peter Allen on stage, directed at Barry Manilow-who had slipped in quietly to see Allen's show.Peter always said Manilow plagirised his "I Go To Rio" song and transformed it into "At The Coppacabana". I forewarned Allen that Barry was in the audience and then Peter with marraccas and in sequin trousers, leapt upon the piano, as was his wont, and said before each of 3 songs..."this song and the movements are copyright Barry !" much to the bafflement of the audience. Manilow slipped out shortly after. I do recall only one time when an extremely obnoxious drunk had to be ejected. It sticks in my memory as I can recall his unkempt appearance,flailing arms and through the spittle and bile foaming at his mouth, I perceived he was forming the words "Adam,"Ant" and "Marquee" but whether this was Madisons or Country Cousins I can't recall !<BR/><BR/>with love,<BR/>veritas !Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30643113.post-3957848459110742572009-01-30T23:56:00.000+00:002009-01-30T23:56:00.000+00:00Oops!
