This week is momentous in the South West's history, Bristol have finally decided to allow us to march through the streets in the middle of the day on a Saturday, brandishing flag's, popper's and stopping traffic. We could be angry that it took them until 2010 to allow us this privilege, but when have queens ever been bitter? (Of course, It's still not Bristol Council who offer us this, Its the work of four people in the LGBT community in Bristol.)
Thanks to them, we not only get a pride march, but a nine day pride event. So far this week I've attended a special cinema screening of 'Priscilla' at Bristol Hippodrome, with Bristol's LGBT choir 'Sing Out', as an opening act. On Friday I'm attending a screening of 'Shortbus' at The Watershed, with a Pre-Pride Party afterwards. Then Saturday is the BIG event. A pride march, A pride day festival headlined by 'Sonique' and too many pride parties to mention.
I'd like to say a massive THANK YOU to the Pride Bristol team, I've never felt prouder of Bristol, of Homo's, of Lebanon's, of T-Girl's and Boy's, of Bears and Twinks in my life. May we all skip along together hand in hand on Saturday and show Bristol that closets are for clothes.
