It reminds me of this old clip from a Beeb doc - early 60s I think - featuring an interview with some elderly bloke who was the attendant at one of London's old walk-down public loos. He said, 'We get so many drunks, drug addicts an' perverts come dahn 'ere, when someone comes in to actually have a shit it's like a breath of fresh air!'

But often they just busted a man because of a furtive look as they did the Australian broadcaster Alan Jones in the late 80s at Piccadilly Circus. Poor Alan was lucky at the time as he had powerful pals like M.Thatcher & Lord Archer but he really should not have worn his favorite pink jumper. BUT WE HAVE PROGRESSED since then...no longer is a conviction needed to destroy....just as an accusation !!! (a good time to be old but look 30 years young er an gorgeous) I could never work out why people have/ had sex in a germ ridden, grotty and stinky public bog ? When I'm out in avoid and forbid my self from using the the thunderboxes, it's not hard to wait until you get home then finally you're king of the throne. My nan always said the cleanest 'comfort stations' are in Sydney.
JK2006	For those puzzled...
Pru	It's pretty well known how the police used to set out to 'trap' celebs they knew were gay. Wilfrid Brambell was caught in that way soon after Steptoe got popular (they couldn't be bothered before that, of course). As for Wyngarde, I heard that 'Rape' track once and wondered what on earth he was doing - it was very disturbingly sinister. Maybe I missed something. Fascinating man, though, I'd love to read a book full of anecdotes about him.
JK2006	And of course by the time boring George Michael got done, it didn't really affect his career (on a down slope by then anyway). Times do change and as media leaps onto morality, so does public opinion. Cottaging is fine now. We haven't yet reached the stage when paedophilia is regarded as just another aspect of life.
