computedshorty Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Sausage and chips.Post-Second World War drag acts 'in the noisy, smoky, crowded pubs of South London and docklands? drag acts ?'were joining the singers and local comics in the line-up of entertainers for a Saturday night?. Who were these South London drag acts? Boy George mentions from his childhood (late 60s/early 70s) 'Bubbles the drag queen who ran a caff in Dulwich... Used to perform at the Valley Club in Dulwich and spent all his days dishing up sausage, egg and chips to navvies'. There was also George Pinaud, some-time Greenwich market stallholder and drag artist, who set himself up as the Pearly King of Greenwich and Deptford in 1958.His song was of course;I'm forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air. They fly so high, Nearly reach the sky, Then like my dreams, They fade and die. Fortune's always hiding, I've looked everywhere, I'm forever blowing bubbles, Pretty bubbles in the air.May I remark that your invitation so worded nearly made me NOT to reply.

cazzyr Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 Hi,Thanks for that. I've read this info on line too. I'd just love to hear from anyone who actually knew of this character and also The Valley Club. Anyone know where it was?Computed...what so upset you about my post???! I think it's fair to ask for genuine responses as this thread Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/19612-post-removed/#findComment-475587 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huguenot Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Well I guess in that it was self-defeating, counter productive and rather presumptuous.See, we're now talking about what you said, rather than what you'd like to know ;-)Anyway - there definitely are people with that knowledge on the forum.Probably if you post a response to me, and change the subject line to: "ED 60s/70s - Valley Club and Bubbles Drag Queen - any info?" you're more likely to get the response you need?'Play research' makes it look like a joke thread ;-) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/19612-post-removed/#findComment-475590 Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxxi Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 And there are those of us who just can't resist a tag line like "Please don't post if you have no information".Sorry but it's like an almost unreachable itch...http://t0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcSAKuam7xIn61N4UFmfUSidMF7Yj99e9RIPV4DbTOin_mCH5cesAQNo one's blowing THESE bubbles baby!

cazzyr Posted September 19, 2011 Author Share Posted September 19, 2011 Well I guess in that it was self-defeating, counter productive and rather presumptuous. Thanks for that.I put play research because I wanted some genuine help, for some genuine research and if I'd put drag queen in the thread title it would have definitely received unwelcome responses. I'm clearly looking for help in the wrong place. Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/19612-post-removed/#findComment-475596 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huguenot Posted September 19, 2011 Share Posted September 19, 2011 Thanks for what?For trying to give you an answer to your question and offer a constructive suggestion on how you might better find out what you're looking for?Clearly you like to self-righteously tell other people what they're allowed to do, and then throw a hissy fit when you don't get what you want.Grow up, kiddo.
