Bon Voyage

Aged Ps have arrived safely. We're all off to Wales tomorrow so I don't know how much opportunity I'll have for posting on here over the next week or so. Hopefully I'll be able to post some comments from my dad's computer but, if not, I'll be back in Manchester on the 16th as I have an appointemnt at MRI on the 17th (its just a follow up check after my time on the ICU). Aged Ps are currently in Livebait while I'm off to watch that Andrew Lloyd Weber thing (I'm so gay....). J x

'Livebait'? That sounds like somewhere from 'The League of Gentlemen'...

Ah Jonty, it was Pride yesterday and lots of people send their love to you. Liesel, John Irvine, Adrian and Billy to name but a few.

I raised a warm can of lager to you as I sung along in the cabaret tent. Marvelled that Maisie was STILL honking out the showtunes ... and getting all emo about Phil Starr etc. and shuddering at the Pride Debut of Anthem Mangler ... Cyrstal Wade ... she lives!

DEE was the headliner and stormed the tent, by the time the big top was bellowing along to 'A Little Respect' it was time for my annual Pride Sob. I sung and whooped so passionatley that I lost my voice and spent the evening squeaking and rasping like a femme Bonnie Tyler.

Ooh. Controvery reigned at the entrance to the Park as some god botherers chose to picket with choice exerpts from the Bible. Needless to sat they got booed and jeered by the passing 150,000 sodomites. Nevertheless, it was a very stupid and mean thing to do and upset a lot of people at the satrt of their day. So much for the love of god! Thankfully I am sure they just represent a teeny faction of religious people. Hilariously they looked like a caricature or religious bigotry ... they were all grey, old, devoid of any happiness and to a person, extremely ugly. No wonder they were so joyless.

Anyway (#3)it would have been fabulousness itself had been there, so throughout the day I had an imaginary you standing by me ... you really enjoyed it when a pilled up Eileen Dover came staggering over to 'make nice' with the compliments and bravado. Apparently he's retried now ... I wondered how anyone would be able to tell....
