On Saturday 1st August http://www.brightonpride.org/festival-parade.php Brighton has its Gay Pride carnival parade.
I am wholly unsure of the etiquette of "just turning up and joining in", but I have decided that I want to. While it might be a giggle to have a banner with the two kids on the green and blue background and the website url, I'm just going as me.
This post is in case anyone wants to join me.
My wife may also want to come, which I view as a good thing. She'll decide at the last minute because she'll only just be back fomr a girls' holiday the previous day. I imagine wives of we gay married men are welcome.
Logistics of getting there by car may be ridiculous. It may be a case of finding a station and taking the train, or, I usually park elsewhere and take the bus. Brighton has excellent buses.
I'm a total virgin in this sort of thing. I know the march is anonymous, but it feels as if I'm putting my head above the parapet in a big way. I already feel emotional typing this.
So how shall we organise this, those who would like to join in? Posting here will work for everything except personal details. Obviously mobile phone numbers for meeting up will be useful, but not in open forum. My email address is next to this message. If you email me (and maybe post here to encourage others) then I'll put together a distribution list of "just us" that deals with it.
We need to know where we will meet, and stuff like that.
