Obituary: Gay boy comes to London

I was looking at GBD's blog at the weekend, when I saw the following comment from GBL on GBD's most recent posting:

GBL: "... Just a quick one, wanted to let you know that GBL is out the door. Over an incident at the hols. ..."

I immediately tried to bring up GBL's blog (formerly at gayboyinlondon.blogspot.com), and as expected, it doesn't exist any more. How upsetting :-(.

GBL was a happy-go-lucky kind of guy from Trinidad and Tobago. The last posting of his that I can remember reading said that he was returning to Trinidad and Tobago for Christmas. Presumably something terrible happened while he was there. I guess we'll never know what that was :-((.

His blog was titled "Gay boy comes to London", with the sub-title "The happenings of a small countryside gay boy from the tropical twin republic, caribbean island of Trinidad & Tobago, caught in the middle of Central London traffic". One the most memorable things about GBL's blog was the beautiful pictures that he sometimes posted of guys kissing each other. For me, it was his trademark. I don't know how he managed to find so many good pictures, always high quality, never pornographic, but always somewhat erotic! It was very well done.

Is there life after blogging? Somehow GBL was able to communicate with us from the after-blog-life via that brief comment on GBD's blog. Who knows if GBL will ever read this, or whether he'll have the ability for further communication? But if you can communicate with us GBL, please let us know how you are. The same fate possibly awaits us all one day.
