Default London (and other UK) Pride 2009

Ladies, Gentlemen and those that don't restrict themselves to such limiting terminology.

Pride has come (and in some cases, gone) for our cousins across t'Pond. And now it's our turn to show them how it's done. Let rainbow-ed apparel shine, let it all hang out, let our hair down, let loose and let go. Responsibly.

I myself am going to London Pride this weekend for July the 4th. If you see a small bunch of people huddled under a hand-made banner that reads "Keele LGBT" or similar, chances are, I'm somewhere underneath it. Come say hi, if so.

So, basically. Is anyone else in the UK doing Pride this year? If so, when, where, how &c.

Love to all.

B.

Hope you enjoy London and all the Events on during Pride.
I myself am going to Bournemouth Pride Event between the 10th and 12th of July.

http://www.bournefree.co.uk/

First Time going to a Pride Event, and I think I have found myself Working at one of the Bars - But least I will be there soaking up the atmosphere and with my Boyfriend.

The British Summer better Stay long enough for Both Events!!

I will be going to Bournemouth Pride on the July 11th, it looks like it will be a good weekend, I might try and go to my local pride in august, but it's not as big and doesn't appear to have much going on.

I too am hoping that the British summer lasts long enough, either way it will be a good day.
