The whole Poor Little Rich Gay world is rocked to its foundations. It&#8217;s all to do with Bruce MacBain, my private architect. We&#8217;ve always wondered about him.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, other Poor Little Rich Gays are blazing the truer trail: they&#8217;ve been up all night booking Glyndebourniana. The public booking opened at 1 minute past midnight last night. I thought it was noon today. I thought 12.01 am meant noon. But Sebastian Archer, who once shaped world taste in words for a living, put me right &#8211; just in time.\u00a0 What a narrow escape! By noon there would have been nothing left.<\/p>\n<p>Comment whirled through the world: surely Poor Little Rich Gays are on the Friends List? True &#8211; I&#8217;ve thought of it. You have to pay \u00a3500. But why bother if you can book anyway? I went on at 6.am this morning and gained two tickets for <em>The Fairy Queen<\/em> at once. Sebastian Archer booked <em>The Cunning Little Vixen<\/em> at 1.30 am.<\/p>\n<p>So I&#8217;m double Glyndebourniana this year!<\/p>\n<p>Poor Little Rich Gays get what they want, rarely by the usual means. Private, free entrance is the dream, almost always come true.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, back to Bruce MacBain. You remember he was well-refreshed at the Blond Multi&#8217;s 50th at La Pont and nearly threw Peter Acharya in the Thames. Well, that&#8217;s not the end of it. He told me himself, last night, while we sat in a Gastro being blasted to smithereens by bellowing, toilet-talking male heterosexuals, which is ironic really.<\/p>\n<p>Bruce MacBain was flirting at the Blond Multi&#8217;s 50th birthday party at La Pont.<\/p>\n<p>And not with a man.<\/p>\n<p>But with a concert pianist. She even said, &#8216;You&#8217;d better watch out. That&#8217;s my husband over there.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Luckily she&#8217;s Argentinian and likely to give a home concert in the Multis&#8217; wrapabout penthouse soon.<\/p>\n<p>What neither of them knew, or maybe they did, was that that husband was being very carefully attended to by his dinner neighhour, Marcus Cargill,\u00a0 England&#8217;s leading clock mender. Later, when many Poor Little Rich Gays became unanchored from their seats (or had fallen straight to the floor on rising), Hamish McCory, Marcus&#8217;s partner, was found to be in the vacant seat on the other side of the concert pianist&#8217;s husband, creating a pincer movement.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s thought he was being groomed for a threesome.<\/p>\n<p>Thank God for normalcy: when you think of what Bruce MacBain was up to!<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, I&#8217;ve had the idea of displaying russet apples flat on my trolley. I feel Angus Willis, the Hastings-based International food writer and stylist, will approve.<\/p>\n<p>He, by the way, is dining Priscilla Carluccio this evening. She has crawled into the Tudor House, Hastings, for the weekend. I could have dined too, but have a dinner at home.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3267\" style=\"width: 660px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3267\" class=\"size-large wp-image-3267\" title=\"004\" src=\"http:\/\/poorlittlerichgays.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/0041-650x487.jpg\" alt=\"My New Flat Fruit Bowl\" width=\"650\" height=\"487\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-3267\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">My New Flat Fruit Bowl<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Saturday 24th March 2012 You just won&#8217;t believe it.
