“You can dance, you can jive, having the time of your life”

Hey Cool Cats, How’s tricks? Blimey what a storming night the party was the other night! Given that we had so many birthdays this month, the group decided on having a bit of a do (as they say locally). The theme was Blitz & Glitz – so cue 40s swing tunes and a bit of Glenn Miller. I’d thought about getting a 40s outfit together but really I didn’t have anything that was that suitable. In the end, I opted for my old (90s) red party dress, the trusted black lacy cardy (looks better than it sounds) and my dancing shoes. Sandi & co had provided a very cool looking birthday cake – complete with pink heels. That cake, not Sandi that is. That […]

“But you’re knock knock knocking again, boy”

Hiya, How’s you? Good I hope. Me? Oh, I’m good…. Glad it’s the weekend that’s for sure. This week has gone by in a flash. I’m pretty sure I can remember Monday and after that it’s a blur of events. So, what’s been going off? To start with, I got a year older… at least physically. That was nice. 🙂 Jelly, ice-cream and a sing-song around a cake. All good stuff.

I managed to find two new pairs of fabby new heels – although I’ve yet to give them a road test (Ed: […]

“Movements come and movements go”

The summer sun slips into an early bed, the chill autumn evening replacing it. With the darkness, desires and thoughts creep into the minds of men. Thoughts and wants alien to their brothers. They begin to need. To want. Stealing themselves they find the cupboard and pull back the door. The items of their obsession peak out, tantalising; promising of times away from the normal world. Welcome, to the unreal world of the transvestite. No-one can be told what it is to be trans, they must experience it for themselves. 🙂 [ Lyric from Rage Against the Machine’s Wake Up.]

“I’m a professional cynic but my heart’s not in it”

Hi peeps, Another week rolls by eh? No blog post from last week as I was away on a jolly (and very nice it was too!). I’ve got a fair big of blogging to catch up on (other peoples, not mine) and I wonder what you good folk have been up to. Despite the warm weather, the nights are now drawing in and that, of course, can only mean one thing. Okay, more than one thing, a) it’ll be colder, b) they’ll be more lights on and c) trans season will soon be upon us. It also means that Autumn fruits (no, the other sort) will be ready now. Apples, blackberries, etc. Yum!! This month’s glossies are showing off the […]
