Coffee Table Debris

A Friday night in with 5 queens involving crisps and chocolate. Nice company and chat entwined with the odd giggle or two watching Little Britain and The Smoking Room.

There were several toned and fit guys, dressed only in white briefs and boots, representing Gaydar Radio, and this was one of 'em video'ing the proceedings.

Freddie

Ex 'Scene 22' fame, this is Freddie, one of the first gay people I ever met in Brighton, back in the 80's.

Gaydar boys

Another two of the gorgeous Gaydar Radio boys.

Green Drag Queen

There seemed to be more of these this year than ever before which is great for photo takers. This one, in the park on Saturday... fab in green.

Bumping to pals from Croydon and local, throughout the day... this is Jackie (on the right) and mates.

With toilet queues, we head off to a nearby bush and Jezz is the first to finish.

This has to be the oldest chap I've seen using a mobile for what seemed like text'ing. See Dad, if he can do it!

Old Dame, oh dear!

This lovely guy was all dragged up last year too... once again, in the park this year with another outfit but same teeth... all two of em.. love him!

Pete really had to zoom in to get a glimpse of drag queen Phil Starr, out of drag on Sunday afternoon at Legends.
