Needless to say, our first Gay Pride since 2019 was a magnificent, a stunning, and an exhilarant day indeed [more on that later, no doubt - once I have managed to sort out the hundreds of photos we took]!
Meanwhile - see if you can spot a familiar face in this BBC report of the day...
Please form an orderly queue for autographs.
By the time you see this, dear reader, Madam Acarti, Baby Steve, Houseboy Alex and I should already be in an Addison Lee cab on our way to Our Sal's pub The Shaston Arms in the West End for our traditional bacon-butties-and-champagne breakfast, and get our outfits sorted - for it is indeed the first Gay Pride in London for three years today!!
There's only our traditional anthem left to play...
Have a great Pride day/weekend!
Among a huge raft of ill-assorted fellow celebrants on this "Gay Xmas Eve" [a very special one - not just the first one in three years, but also the 50th anniversary of the first official Pride March], including Princess Diana, Our Patron Saint Debbie Harry, Estée Lauder, Karen Black, Charles Laughton, Olivia de Havilland, Dave "Darth Vader" Prowse, Jeff Wayne, Trevor Eve, William Wyler, Pamela Anderson [55 today], George Sand, Scotty Bowers, Carl Lewis, Dan Aykroyd [who is 70], Farley Granger, Geneviève Bujold [she's 80], Jean Marsh, Leslie Caron, Amy Johnson, Liv Tyler, Louis Blériot and Missy Elliott...
...it's the faboo Miss Evelyn "Champagne" King's birthday!
To mark the occasion, a classic to get the party started - and Thank Disco It's Friday!
Roll on the festivities tomorrow!
It's warm and muggy in London and, despite the threat of disruption at the airports, many people are looking forward to getting away from it all...
...via "Soft Tempo Lounge Airways", perhaps?
The only way to fly.
[Music: The Flying Dutchmen (Pete Moore) - Sunday's Child]
A pair of false eye lashes and a tube of cheap lipstick
A pair of worn out high heel shoes and a dress doesn't fit
These are all my possessions all I have to my name
And a record played in my home town is my only claim to fame
Bless.
Back to the grind again, dear reader...
...however, this is the start of a very significant countdown - it's the first Gay Pride in London for three years this Saturday!
Who could be more appropriate on this Tacky Music Monday to lead the fanfare than our beloved Patron Saint of questionable history, Miss Amanda Lear herself?!
Have a good week, folks.
