I've been under a blitz of angry 'posters' on various boards because I dare to question the Elm Guest House claims which I think may simply reflect a time when people chose a non too inquiring hotel to conduct affairs.
Anyone who has dealt with inner London cheap hotels...I have,not for myself but for a number of reasons, know most are run by fierce door watching managers who come down like a ton of bricks if one nicks an extra teabag let alone dare bring in a guest.
Alternatively you could book a room at the Dorchestor or Hilton and entertain the Vienna Boys Choir and troupe of West End strippers without a blink of a concierge eye.
I pose one simple question ... the website Exaro is shaking with excitement - they have still only found one alleged victim but are screaming about Cyril Smith and "rent boys". How old where they and where are they?
That Wildean term 'rent boy' conjures up images of a doeful 14/15 year old innocent lad just arrived from Yorkshire, wide eyed and innocent and plucked from a Victoria Station platform by the 20 stone + Smith.
Those who have Covered the Waterfront know it could mean something else : such as my old friend- he's 61 now- "Bruce" who still advertises as a rent boy ( he does look about 38 in a dark room) and amazingly, still pulls punters, and has for about 30 years now.
But they are having none of that.
