My partner, Des de Moor, who has died aged 64 of a brain tumour, was the founder of Pirate Jenny’s, a long-running London cabaret club.
He set up the club in 1995, initially at the Vortex jazz club and later at the Drill Hall. Aside from organising everything there – engaging all the artists, doing the publicity and taking the door money – he also acted as emcee.
