#but if ya got the money

I’ve seen people asking about Freddie’s living arrangements post-Mary (they were confused about the untrue lamp scene in the film) and here it is:

He spent most of his nights (in 1976) at Werter Road, Putney where his boyfriend David Minns lived with his friend David Evans. Sometime in late ‘76, maybe early ‘77, he bought the flat at Stafford Terrace. 

He bought a flat for Mary on Phillimore Gardens, a road that is perpendicular to Stafford Terrace (meaning they couldn’t see in each other’s windows!)

Little known fact: He also rented a flat for himself and David Minns to share, in Dovehouse Street, Chelsea.

So neither Mary or David lived in Stafford Terrace with him. He liked to compartmentalise everything. Separate flats for all!
