'Enjoy this story. I already jumped to the parts about me.' - Boy GeorgeThe extraordinary life story of David Hodge - the 'Very Miss Dusty O'. -'My story is one of laughter and hedonism, dressing up and showing off.

David worked simultaneously at London Lighthouse, the pioneering centre for the care of people living with HIV and AIDS. Here, the young David grew up fast and opened his eyes to the true impact of this terrifying pandemic. The contrast was stark between the life of David Hodge during the day and the life of Miss Dusty O after dark.After two decades in clubland, as drink and drugs started to take their toll and he feared he was developing his father's alcoholic patterns, David changed his life yet again...
