“From the restaurant we went on to a stylish nightclub co-owned by a stunning-looking woman in a rather revealing dress. She decided she wanted to join our party and made a bee-line for Freddie, forcing herself between Freddie and me. Her right buttock was precariously perched on half of his chair and her left on half of mine. She then crossed her legs and, every so often, her hand slipped to her side as she yanked her hemline a little higher up her tanned legs.
‘Have you got a girlfriend?’ she asked Freddie.
‘No, I haven’t,’ he replied.
‘Have you got a wife?’ she asked.
He leaned across her, put his hand on my knee and said: ‘Yes. This is the wife!’
With that the poor woman almost died! She babbled hurried excuses and ran off into the crowd to hide.”

"It was when I was getting his shorts on that I felt him try to raise his left leg to help a little. It was the last thing he did. I looked down at him knowing he was dead.
“Phoebe “ I cried out “I’m sorry, he’s gone ”
I slipped my arm under Freddie’s neck , kissed him and then held. His eyes were wide open. I can remember vert clearly the expression on his face - and when I go to sleep every night it’s still there in front of me. He looked radiant.
One minute he was a boy with a gaunt, sad little face and and next he was a picture of ecstasy. Freddie’s face ent back to everything it had been before. He looked finally and totally. Seeing him like that made me feel happy in my sadness. I felt an overwhelming sense of relief. I knew he was no longer in pain.
I stopped the tiny pin fly-wheel of the wind-up carraigr clock by the bed. I’d given it to Freddie because he told me he’d always wanted one. It read twelve minutes to seven. I’ve never started it again.

I think it was important for Jim to mention their sex life because the press were obsessed with portraying Freddie as some reckless sexual degenerate, as they did with all LGBT people. But then Jim completely shatters that narrative by saying, ‘no, our sex life was normal, like any other couple.’
People need to keep in mind that this was published only a few years after Freddie died, and these disrespectful stories were still circulating about him (and they still are to this day, because it makes them money.) If my partner was being slandered publicly, being portrayed as some sort of deviant, and they weren’t around to defend themselves, you bet your ass I’d be setting the record straight.
That’s a good point. I don’t know if that was his explicit intention, but in the face of endless stories which portrayed Freddie as a WiLd sex addict, Jim said they just had normal sex and Freddie thought of it as lovemaking from early on. The book was only published 2-3 years after Freddie died, and at a time when gay memoirs were not popular in the slightest; people forget how brave it was of Jim to even publish a book like that tbh

I love you albums. I love you songs connected by similar themes. I love you listening to songs in a specific order picked by the artist. I love you reoccurring motifs throughout the same album. I love you album covers. I love you albums with extended editions. I love you songs that reference each other.

“A couple of days after I passed my test, Freddie, Joe and the others were sitting around in the kitchen. Terry came in through the garden with a twinkle in his eye. Freddie had secretly asked him to scout around and find me a car.
Freddie called me into the kitchen. On the table were some glossy brochures for a Volvo 740 GLE estate. ‘Here, pick a colour,’ said Freddie. He was serious. Mary objected to Freddie buying me this particular car. She felt it wasn’t wise for my first one to be brand-new. I thought she was talking a lot of sense. But Freddie would have none of it.
‘For God’s sake,’ he said to her. ‘It’s his birthday present. He gets a new car.’ ”

Finally, I finally bought Mercury and Me by Jim Hutton buuut I think I should've bought the upgraded one but it cost a lot of money on Amazon.
So, I'm content with this one

eijiro kirishima who secretly loves it when you come n cry to him, loves when you depend on him like that, when you let him lay you down and pamper you, tucking you under covers while he gets you water and makes you dinner, who brushes his fingers over your skin until your sleeping soundly, who fists his cock in the bed next to you silently thinking about how you looked up at him with those fat tears in your eyes pleading with him to make you feel better, how your bottom lip trembled when you said his name
eijiro kirishima who’s ever the gentleman again the next day, waking you up with breakfast ready and asking you if you’re okay in the gentlest tone

I think this is what anon was referring to:
“Speaking to my former boyfriend John Alexander about the trouble Prenter had caused, I learned that Prenter had been bitchy behind my back over Christmas. John had had a run-in with him at a party at Kenny Everett’s home. Prenter talked at the top of his voice about me, throwing in plenty of barbed remarks for good measure. Eventually John tired of the tirade and challenged Prenter. He asked him just how well he knew me and, as Prenter mumbled an answer, John told him that he was my ex-lover. Prenter shut up and avoided him for the rest of the night.”
Thank you for the source! I’d totally forgotten about this. It’s not surprising at all that Paul would bitch and moan about Jim for no reason at all (after all, he didn’t actually know him well^), other than the fact that he was probably angry Jim was closer to Freddie than he was, and Paul seemed possessive of Freddie—a trait he shared with Mary.
It’s nice that Jim’s ex stood up for him—imagine if Freddie had been there to overhear all that 💀
