Very good Fred - and incidentally, dear Sun, I am not a paedophile as I keep telling you.
The definition of a paedophile is someone who finds children sexually attractive, which I do not.
My wrongful convictions were for young persons of 14 and 15 and the legal definition of a child is "a person under 14".
News International justifies use of the word because everyone is a child - of God, or of their parents - which makes Rupert Murdoch (married to a girl far younger than him) a paedophile.
Re:I have notified the Cavern... 16 Years, 7 Months ago
Funny this should come up right now since I almost made a post querying this a couple of months ago. I was casually walking past that wall and suddenly saw JK's name! I'm sure JK has said here that he never performed live so that raised my curiosity. Just what was JK doing on this wall if he never performed live in public? What's more, JK's brick was very prominent at my eye level (I'm 5 foot 10) and some tosser had tried to slash the name out.
Glitter's brick was much lower and surprise surprise, some tosser had scratched "no pedo brick" upon it... yet didn't have the slashing that JK's brick had. Certainly no evidence of any attempt to remove it either. What I ask is, why remove it now? It's been there many years whilst Glitter was in prison... ample time to remove it, but it's only now Glitter is back in Britain that it happens. I strongly suspect "media" involvement and interference in this. If the people of Liverpool really objected, those bricks would had been removed years ago... you know how vocal Scousers are!
I was so surprised to see these two bricks in the first place and I'm glad I took snapshots of them now. I think it's utterly pathetic they have been removed... especially AFTER the busiest year Liverpool has seen and a million or so tourists will have seen that wall and those bricks.

Credit where due - it seems Mr Heckle feels it is a disgrace he was forced to remove it, which is why he's replaced it with a bigger and more prominent plaque!
But I still never played there so why was my name included?
Mind you, I played with many of those who did play there.
