Wyn wasn't that a different young man (in those days) by the same name? He really was a beatnik. This one is (was) a hairdresser, the one you are thinking of went to Japan.

Well this one is or was definitely a hairdresser if you read some of the comments on his profile.
And some time ago you or somebody else told me in a pm that the beatnik one was on here under another alias which I won't post here but have just looked at it and it fits.

Re: Dance halls
I think the beatnik one spelt his name Stewart as opposed to Stuart. Here he is, anyway, on the right, circa 1964
