My Mum knew Phil Lynott professionally and stayed at his Mums hotel in Manchester a fair bit in the 60's.Thin Lizzy too for a short period.
His Mother was a really lovely woman apparently and good to my Mum (both Irish). My Mum soon realised she was also a Madam and ran a dominatrix brothel in the basement flat of the hotel.
Apparently the ladies who worked there would walk into the breakfast room in their full "gear" and would chat away casually wearing leather corsets and holding whips whilst eating a bit of toast.
