She was 64. http://aboutmanchester.co.uk/julia-grant-a-legendary-name-in-manchesters-gay-village-dies-at-64/ I met her once during the early 80s. She was a friend of one of the owners of the nightclub where I worked and she did one night behind the bar. At the end of the night as all the staff gathered for a drink, she sat on a low barstool, adopted a posture which would now be called manspreading and proclaimed "I'm fucking knackered". R.I.P. dear heart. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My memory playing tricks again. Yes he was. He was arrogant beyond belief and, basically, tried to hold her to ransom by threatening to veto her surgery if she did not do things the way he wanted them done. That is when, IIRC, she went private and had the surgery done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
