Meanwhile, in the fleshpots of London’s Soho, Grouchos – founded by publishers but soon overrun by loud-mouthed advertising types – has been shut down. Had its license withdrawn pending police enquires.
I used to like the edgy atmosphere but a lot of folk didn’t. Dealing would routinely happen in the men’s (and probably ladies) toilets. You’d see – most often hear – other importuning going on there, too.
Kind of a mystery why the police have suddenly pounced – didn’t they know what went on there for decades? A statement says it’s “associated with serious crime or serious disorder or both”.
That’s pretty wide-ranging. “Serious disorder” was one of the reasons people went there, especially late on a Friday night!
Soho is becoming so monotone.
