Summary
Jimmy kept trying to explain to the blokes who frequented the club that he was a normal, red-blooded lad who happened to manage an underground nightspot in Soho for working-class folk of the lavender persuasion. Yes, his best mate and business partner was as bent as they come, and yes they lived together in a flat just down the road—but really, it was entirely platonic and above board.
