|
Hi folks, it's that time of year again. This year Glasgow have decided to split from Pride Scotia and do their own event. The website holds much nonsense about acts I have never heard of and some sort of end of pride party on the Sunday. Sadly it doesn't say much about the march which is all I'm interested in. Nevertheless I will be there, and if a few of you are interested in going I will bring the TZone banner which has appeared at the last few pride marches in Scotland. Let me know here or by PM if you're interested or have any questions.

The website is decidedly under construction. One wouldn't let the public into a building under construction and I think the same should apply to websites, but I digress...
I've got the camera and I'm just up the hill so I could be there easily enough.
What time's kick off, and where? _________________ The Daily Turnout - First for profulgent flatulence

I might try and be there, but since moving out, we're currently located in Swansea, so no promises. Glad to know I've not missed it though.

According to my source, there's a rally addressed by Nicola Sturgeon at 11:30am. I suspect the march will leave some time after 12:00 in the usual fashion. Start location is Blythswood square. I picked up a leaflet in the LGBT centre at the weekend and it gave the start time but had no date on it! This does not bode well for the organizational skills of the new guy! Finishes in George Square where there will be music and I presume the usual stalls. _________________ Check out the Tzone team bios (including mine!) at: http://www.transgenderzone.com/bio.htm

Ok, I'm going away for a few days, but when I get back I expect to see everyone in Scotland signing up for the march! Pride is 2 days after I move house, I live 100 miles away, but I'm still going. Therefore the rest of you have no excuse. There is usually not much trans presence at the march, so I think it's important that Tzone sends some representatives. Also it's fun. _________________ Check out the Tzone team bios (including mine!) at: http://www.transgenderzone.com/bio.htm

Ok, it looks like no one is interested this year. There's not much point in dragging the banner across Scotland on trains and buses if there's only me and Reenie to carry it, so I think I'll leave it at home. I'll still be going anyway, so if anyone wants to join me or meet up afterwards post here or PM me. I'll check again on Friday night. _________________ Check out the Tzone team bios (including mine!) at: http://www.transgenderzone.com/bio.htm

Well, I don't see how I can hold one end of the banner and photograph it at the same time  so best leave it at home. _________________ The Daily Turnout - First for profulgent flatulence

Indeed. Not many Spanish judges cruel enough to condemn a prisoner to a generation's incarceration in an Ayrshire slam. _________________ The Daily Turnout - First for profulgent flatulence
