Deaf group at the Fox
1989
Belinda said "My contact with ‘the scene’
since the nineties has been limited to playing in the band (The
Cuckoo's Nest) at lesbian events and occasionally dropping in at the
Fox, I like it because they run a Deaf BSL signing group on a Thursday and
I’ve always been committed to learning that. There was a large group of
Deaf Lesbians which was a prominent part of the gay scene in this town,
they came to the Boot Women and the Bad Girls' Disco, run by Ellen and
Pam, in the early eighties. After the women's discos at the Star Club
went belly up, Boot Women
carried on with the Bad Girls' Discos for a while.”
