Poor Little Rich Gays are everywhere. They\u2019re taking over. Last night Lord Arrowby and I went to a play. It was called <em>Becky Shaw<\/em>. To tell the truth (if you\u2019re interested in the truth), it was actually about straight people. But how much they\u2019d learnt from Poor Little Rich Gays re: brilliant, new, difficult, dazzling configurations of relationships! With the pace of change these days, it won\u2019t be long before marriage and monogamy have gone completely, axed to the ground by Poor Little Rich Gays. No, correction, there\u2019s nothing wrong with marriage, often as a cosy base from which to branch out with return in mind. I plan to marry myself one day. But it is deadly unless there is some large angle laid across it.<\/li>\n<li>On Sunday I was sweeping in my front area when who should be peering through the railings but my architect, Bruce MacBain and his partner (Mondays off and separate homes), Tancredo Viamare, both masculine in Designer outwear with hoods. They were returning from an exhibition of Japanese frockage, the last day&#8230; if only I\u2019d known. \u00a0They held the entire street in thrall for twenty minutes with accounts of Issey Mikaye (never worn by me), Yamamoto, Comme des Garcons (it won\u2019t do the cedilla). I said, \u2018What about Yuki? Those draped evening dresses.\u2019 What a topic for the front area!<\/li>\n<li>That morning I risked Sainsbury\u2019s where I never normally go. I wanted their car park and thought it only right to try and buy something to be nice. There was Peter Acharya at the check-out, in a million-dollar leather jacket, looking completely finished for a Sunday morning and with front hair interest. He said: \u2018Champagne\u2019s half price. I\u2019ve got ten bottles.\u2019 He said: \u2018There\u2019s been an encounter between two older gentlemen. One said, \u201cI\u2019m going to buy Brasso.\u201d The other said: \u201cI always use Lanc\u00f4me.\u201d Offence taken.\u2019 \u00a0I snapped up three bottles of Lanson for \u00a314.99.<\/li>\n<li>The Multis, meanwhile, went round on Saturday to the headquarters of the Monmouth Coffee House in Maltby Street, Bermondsey, where they are known. Look what they found: see graphs below. They also went to Heston Blumenthal\u2019s new restaurant Dinner at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel. \u00a0The Photo Multi speaks primarily in pictures, so&#8230;.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-large wp-image-1975\" title=\"Heston Blumenthall Dinner 2 -
