We had an utterly fantabulosa time at Pride in London yesterday!
Having decided that in the absence of our old "home base" The Shaston Arms [formerly Our Sal's pub - RIP], our somewhat depleted gang [neither Sal nor Lou could make it, and others had alternative plans for what they were doing for Pride] we would meet up in The Kings Head pub in Mayfair close to our favoured spot on Piccadilly near the Burlington Arcade, we had a comfortable few snifters before assuming positions.
As ever, our completely OTT outfits outshone just about anything on the parade/march itself! And so it was, as always, that we had more of the corporate-branded t-shirt-wearing participants taking photos of us than we took of them. It's a shadow of its former self, more's the pity, nowadays. So many boring t-shirts and so few creative costumes.
Speaking of the parade...
...and - we made it to The Guardian!
We and more than a million people thoroughly enoyed it!
Roll on next Gay Xmas...
Well, thank goodness for the military otherwise it would have just been you and your gang in fabulous costumes! (Okay, so theirs are uniforms - and I'm not keen on the brown ones - but at least they dressed up.) The Pink Mafia - It's no wonder you were papped so much! Fabulous!
