On foot across Edinburgh
If you decide to give up smoking as a result of this month’s ban in public places, perhaps you might also consider other ways in which you can get healthy - especially now the ardour of New Year's resolutions has worn off and it's time to get real. Why not try walking, and learning a bit of LGBT history at the same time? Remember When, the project documenting the lives and achievements of Edinburgh queer folk, has teamed up with the city‘s LGBT Centre for Health and Wellbeing to produce a pack of leaflets detailing a series of self-guided walks around Auld Reekie. The seven strolls take in current gay venues, old cruising grounds, long-gone community venues, and figures from the past whose sexuality was more of a nudge and a wink than free, gay and happy. One such chappie is ‘Wee Willie' Merrilees, a chief police inspector who went undercover to root out ‘the homosexual menace’ that was luring young soldiers off the straight and narrow at Maxine’s, a turn- of-the-century dance hall on West Tollcross. Wee Willie took pride in his ability to walk, talk and act convincingly, as if he were ‘one of them‘, a boast that would surely have raised the eyebrow of Dr Freud. ‘The stories of LGBT life go back to the 16th century — it‘s a rich tapestry,’ says Ellen Galford of Remember When. ‘lt‘s a whole new take on looking at the city, and much of it will come as a surprise to Edinburgh citizens, whatever their sexual orientation.’ The leaflets are available from various gay-friendly locations and the LGBT Centre at 9 Howe Street.
