mandilambi Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Did everyone here hear that Freddie Mercury is in People Magazine's "Gone Too Soon" issue. It's nice, he has 2 pages dedicated with lots of pictures. I saw it. Nice bunch of pictures. When I looked through it the other day in Barnes and Noble, I read through the article. Tears welled up in my eyes when I read Freddie's last statement. My heart will never cease to feel heavy when it comes to his death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mika4Life13 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Especially For Mika4life13 And Other Queen Fans Who Might Be Interested.These have never been shown on the internet before at all........... :wub2: Thank you so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
englishrose Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Shari, When I saw your name withe a new post on the Q club I thought you had some tour news for us...My heart almost stopped... Anyway, thanks for the pics. I have similar from the 90s, except for the panorama one, which is absolutely unique - thanks again.. and yes, all the graffiti was removed a long time ago and the walls are all empty.. maybe an occasional Freddie on the green door but you would never notice it was once his house.. Why did they take the graffiti off?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shari Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 A matter of taste I suppose. Would you like that scrawled all over the walls of your house? It was good of Mary to let it stay there for so long I guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mika4Life13 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 It was all positive things though...a kind of art form i thought it was beautiful Now if it had profanities of course, take it off. like when i went to new york. there was one wall dedicated to 9/11 and it had children's drawings it was beautiful.

Finkster Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Aww, if I were Mary I would've left it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shari Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 Yes personally I loved it too, but when you pay millions for a home, you don't want it almost valdalised. These people who wrote messages didn't have permission to do this. I thought it looked great and it was a place for us to mourn for a few years. But Dhhaaaaaling all that grafitti in the heart of Kensington, it's just not the right thing to do!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shari Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 The last time I went was about 2 years ago and there were tree fellers there. They wwere going in and out of the back gate. I convinced one of them to wedge his foot in the gate for a short time so I could look in. He discretely obliged and I got my camcordeer ready. The instantly realised it was an invasion of privacy and it didn't feel right, so I put it away. Never forget what I saw though......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shari Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Oh just his garden and the front (or back) of the house. Just like pictures I've seen. Not alot has changed just maintained. We had a word with one of the workers and we said did he know who lived here? He said yes, but wasn't over-awed by the fact. But just to peek in was amazing for me.

mandilambi Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 In regards to the whole graffiti thing...I don't blame Mary a bit for taking it off. That wall is private property and it was her right to remove it. For one thing....it would be hard for her to move on from grieving over Freddie's death when she would see all of those messages every day. I don't think I could handle having to read them each day forever and ever. Oh...and let's not forget...painting graffiti is illegal... Btw LadyGodiva, you are Queeniac #74.
