Crystal meth (also known in the gay community as T or Tina) didn't start to become used by gay men in the UK for long, intense sex sessions until around the mid-2000s (say around 2005/06). But even then it was confined to very small numbers. It wasn't until the early 2010s that the so-called "parTy" scene (party with a capital "T" to mean use of T/crystal meth) had really become quite large in the UK (mainly in London).
In the midst of this panic, there was kindness like the journalist who wanted to reassure the man who had named him that there were no hard feelings.
Yes, God bless him, that was so loving of him and so refreshing to hear.
Martin, thank you so much for all your efgorts to put these online!

Were the boys partying a lot back in the mid-1980s? Was there a lot of crystal meth and other party drugs?
