ALLEGED HEAVEN RAPIST ON TRIAL

You may recall we did a detailed shout out for witnesses about a guy sexually assaulting guys leaving Heaven? He was posing as a minicab driver and after two alleged victims reported it to the police they appealed for witnesses - resulting in several more guys coming forward. The man, one Mohamad Caid, is now on trail at Woolwich Crown Court charged an array of offences including one rape, two attempted rapes and more. He's pleading not guilty. Caid has been remanded in custody since being arrested.

If you have any information or were perhaps a victim you can still contact the police or Victim Support who are there and better trained than ever to help you.

CHRISTMAS NUDITY

Nudity, the men only naked dance club, are back at the back entrance to Union in Goding Street on Friday 11th December.

DOUCHE RANT

I just checked out how to spell douche and douching in Wikipedia. They don't use it in the past tense, "He douched as soon as he came back to my flat", I suppose. The word comes from douche (shower) in French. The Germans have the same word for shower but they spell it differently: die Dusche / duschen. It doesn't mean that in English and that's the only good thing I have to say about douching. According to Wikipedia only North American women do it – some Wiki editor should correct the entry. Gay men who douche before sex drive me crazy.

FIRE++ 1ST JAN

There's a huge party at Fire, Light box and Curfew by promoters Beyond, Megawoof!, Tranny Shack, Love Child and Logan Presents on Friday 1st January 11pm. They say 15 djs, 6 dancefloors, dancers, Contact Room and more. Earlybird tickets are available for only £10. Sounds like five pigs at Bagleys?

"GRIEVING" RABBI NOT GUILTY

A multimillionaire rabbi has been cleared of dealing cocaine. Rabbi Baruch Chalomish who is 54 and lives in Salford allegedly attended "cocaine fuelled orgies" (aren't they all?!) and was spending a grand a week on his habit.

He'd been accused of running a major drug dealing business with one Nasir Abbas. Abbas went on the run and the rabbi's side was all they appear to have heard. The judge convicted Abbas of six years but accepted that the rabbi wasn't dealing and had gotten into it all after the sudden death of his wife and was struggling to get over it. They ignored the fact they found lots of coke in his flat and indeed lots of money - usually a bit of a clue. Another fact the judge didn't appear to click onto was that his wife died suddenly... in 1996.

VICTORY!

UCL have cancelled the scheduled talks by the homophobic Islamist preacher who wants all gays murdered. The college says it decided on "health and safety" grounds... Gay people's health and safety? Success? Yes but more a damning indictment of the students involved and college authorities. Anyone read The Islamist? Worth a read if you haven't.
