Lawrence
was a nurse working in a hospital in Enfield Middlesex.
We would meet about once a week when we would go to the
cinema or somewhere of interest then he would stay overnight
with me and return on the following morning.
Our
relationship lasted for several months on this basis. He
was a very sincere and genuine person and I'm sure that
he loved me. We hoped to visit his mother who still lived
in St Lucia. You can see from the picture he had a substantial
'packet' and knew how to use it.
There
was no hope of us having a permanent relationship and although
we had no commitment to each other Lawrence did get jealous
of my friend Michel Niang whom I met sometime later in that
year.
