Brighton Pride 2007

Juicelog Sat 040807: A chaotic start to the day when we arrived at Victoria station and saw the enormous ticket queues. This was soon rectified when we found out about the ticket conductors hidden away behind the ticket machines and queues. Skipped the first train as the eleven of us wanted a seat. Caught the 11:27am Pride Express down to Brighton gulping down our bottles of champers on the journey down.

Glimpsed 2 minutes of the parade on the way to Matt’s flat. After updating our outfits, sorting out our hair and freshening up our nostrils we bopped along to Preston Park. Ross ended up with a couple of stitches in his head after we caught up with him in the evening.

Brighton Pride is one of the highlights on the homo calendar and is growing bigger and bigger each year. I’m not too sure how long it can sustain itself on a free basis. Let’s hope it doesn’t head in the same corporate direction as London.
