To Be discreet or not 2" BE"

An open invitation to guest blog readers to co tribute more than comments is soon to be extended,some may say this tempts fate. My answer is simple "Que Sara Sara" Time and tide etc ,personally speaking i would think "Bettina?" would agree that VERITA'S is long overdue and 30 years a very extreme sentence, also a very long time to respond to an SOS to her mother ,one she asked to be sent if one email er is to be believed .Why would she not wish to let a concerned party know she was?is alive ,maybe even well? Far easier to answer why others wouldn't wish the boat rocked isn't it? I was asked "NOT" to ruffle feathers. Two Emalee's think some need plucking out ,so come on lets hear from someone with compassion if not empathy is "Bettina?" alive and well ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????.
"FINCH" writes............................................................... Since being told of your site i have been in touch with some others that were around London when Terry And "Bettina?" were together,one or two knew Terry from before he went AWOL from the Old Baily some from when he was in Soho where many of working girls in particular knew him, Coffee and Dave Martin,some of his Friends from back then , one also says "Bettina?"was in South West London in the late 1980,s i am sending you her email address. I have given a great deal of thought as to whether i should have posted that comment on your site as that night i last saw Terry was very strange indeed,but having spoken to someone else that saw him after i did think it only right to elaborate on it,but first i should say to those that didn't know him well he was often quite a contradiction even an "anomaly" Phil Lynot {Thin Lizzy} called him a hippy with "attitude"He certainly had a dark side,but those i have spoken to say "Bettina?"was THE one and that he truly loved her ,sadly i never met her as i had been out of the con try for sometime. I saw Terry last when he came into a bar in Chelsea ...........................He certainly caused a stir as he was looking for John Bindon .Some would call that an error of judgement as Terry was 5,9. and about 10 and a half stone ,compared to Bindons 16 stone? and 6foot plus some knew Terry better,it was also that he was quite different to the places usual customers back then his "look" was very androgynous ,very "sex,drugs and rock and roll,shoulder length hair long black leather coat, skin tight black leather gloves plus black Kohl eyeliner! Sadly nowadays i would liken his "look" to Brandon Lee in "The Crow" perhaps that is very apt??? Actually he wasn't there for a fight but a "sit down " something Bindon would have respected,and something he was entitled to given he had the respect of alot of the real "faces" back then.Bindon wasn't there he was either in the states or on his way back apparently , this really puzzled Terry as well as P----- him off,as word was out Bindon was going to "do" him ,anyway Terry said "Hello" to myself and the girls i was with and left a message that he'd call at Bindons old ladies in couple of days .i have to say he didn't look well, tired and drawn actually, i asked what the "problem was he pulled a face and said he wasn't 100 per cent sure but whatever it was it was "getting sorted" as he needed to get his life together if he was to get the "women of his dreams "back. That made me smile on several counts as the last time id seen him he was very much not for being involved ,and given his position[Having jumped bail several years before]When i mentioned that he blew me away by saying " Once i know shes safe well talk about me giving myself up .getting the past over and done with so we can build a future sweetheart...." I was shocked But pleased he'd found someone that "special" i got a brief catch up of what was going on and knew something stank as "uncle Eddie and the grass Nigel Buckland were involved Terry also knew something more was behind it as Irish Franks name hadn't come up and should have as he'd also been involved in giving Nigel Buckland the Gypsy's warning ! Those that didn't know Terry as i did could have been forgiven for thinking he was a little crazy, those that knew him better knew he was more than a little crazy if pushed to being, it,though nothing was actually said i knew him well enough to be in no doubt that he was quite prepared for more than a"sit down " if it came to it... ..
