"All men are homosexual, some turn straight. It must be very odd to be a straight man because your sexuality is hopelessly defensive. It's like an ideal of racial purity." Derek Jarman
"Hollywood is an extraordinary kind of temporary place." John Schlesinger
"A conversation is a dialogue, not a monologue. That's why there are so few good conversations: due to scarcity, two intelligent talkers seldom meet." Truman Capote

AT HIS FEET - Circa Grapevine Editor: Adrian Gillan
"Have we got shoes for you! Adrian Gillan bares his sole with gay foot fetishists.”
Why do we look down on feet? The way some stride around, you’d think they were merely made for kicking with! Yet feet aren’t just ugly, smelly things at the ends of bodies to be washed and covered up. They are secret symbols of power: there to subjugate, humiliate and abuse - to be admired and worshipped by those faintly worthy, as fleshy foothills to our bodily peaks. ...more...

DEREK JARMAN : GAY ICON
Derek Jarman was famous as a British painter, film director and writer and because he was at the heart of artistic life in Britain for most of his life he knew everyone.
Jarman's father was a New Zealander who had a career in the RAF, so his childhood was spent at a succession of RAF bases throughout the world including Italy, India and Pakistan where he was seconded to establish the Pakistan Air Force after independence in 1947.
In December 1986 Derek Jarman was diagnosed as HIV positive, and he revealed his condition a month later. He became one of the few public figure to talk openly about his own AIDS illness.
Derek Jarman met Kevin Collins at The Tyneside Film Festival in 1987. Collins had been brought up in a village near Newcastle by parents who were socialists and devout Methodists. Jarman pursued him by letter and within a few months Collins went to London and moved in with Jarman. They were both committed campaigners with OutRage!.
Kevin Collins nursed Derek Jarman for the final seven years of his life. On 22nd. September, 1991 Derek Jarman was canonised by the Sisters of Perpetual
Indulgence as St. Derek of Dungeness of the Order of Celluloid Knights. In 1992 he received the Malcolm Balcon Award from the British Academy. ...more...

Boss at Monday morn mews meet, cracked open a large bottle of Bolly – startled Birmans scampering and clawing for cover - to celebrate Circa’s 50,000th member; not to mention the 14,000 milestone on the jobs site front!
Enjoy informal Circa do at our Bishop’s residence in Putney, near the towpath, in the evening. His Grace or Eminence gets us all well and truly sloshed to celebrate the recent full-blown “church wedding” between clergy in some London chapel.
Tabloid columnist member bitching on about the last series of C4’s Big Brother including, thinks he, that “cliché of a 23-year old gay housemate” – some student and teacher from Edinburgh into Will & Grace, who wanted a new law requiring everyone to wear fake tan and supposedly spent a typical day stressing out in front of the mirror and getting changed about three times before going out.
