Pink Picnic 2005
View fullsize The night before... Sonia and her huge dog Pepsi. This is the only dog I've met that didn't like me, she growled, snapped and even nipped me! |
View fullsize Ready to go to Pink... Me, Fiona, Esther and Jo, with Celia and Sheryl behind. |
View fullsize View from the cripple pen at Pink... DOGGIES! |
View fullsize Poor thing, fancy having to wear pink deeleyboppers. |
View fullsize There was a chocolate fountain... I had mini doughnuts in it. YUM. |
View fullsize A naked protester - I think this guy is called Richard. |
View fullsize The Police had a word, and he whipped out a small rug thing to tie round his waist... |
View fullsize ...and was off on his way. I didn't see him around after that. |
View fullsize Esther, the cutest pink cowgirl! |
View fullsize A marching band paraded through the picnic. |
View fullsize On the stage was a model competition, hosted by one of the ugliest drag queens I've ever seen. |
View fullsize Now that's much more stylish! |
View fullsize The motley crew competing to be a model. None of them looked great! | |
View fullsize Happy Jo. |
View fullsize The cripple pen was held together by small cable ties... |
View fullsize Lots of Esther and a little bit of Jo. |
View fullsize Jo and Fiona, with Jo's sis Isabel in the middle. She's not gay. But she IS holding a pink cowgirl hat. |
View fullsize Christian makes a candyfloss beard. That was very good candyfloss. Well, obviously not that bit! |
View fullsize Is that... another doggie? I like doggies! |
View fullsize I really DON'T like these deeleyboppers... but they look like pink fireworks. |
View fullsize What happened to the doggies? These are rats on strings! |
View fullsize Who feels stupidest, the doggie with deeleyboppers or the little rats? |
View fullsize Pink is great for families too. |
View fullsize There were a lot of policemen... not really needed in that quantity. |
View fullsize Some of the stalls. |
View fullsize Someone wearing pink! Most people didn't, so those who did stood out. |
View fullsize The dance tent. I liked it in there. |
View fullsize The glass "yard" was cool. The fact he was topping it up from a can of Grolsch was not cool at all. |
View fullsize I was amazed to see a plant stall! |
View fullsize Helen and Fiona. Awww. |
View fullsize Jo looks even happier! Look at the expression of the man behind (in full size). Oh, and Jo dances... click here! |
View fullsize Esther still looks cute. Check the expression of the lass behind her. |
View fullsize Sheryl, Christian and Jo take a break. |
View fullsize The cabaret tent (I didn't go in, but predictably it was run by drag queens). |
View fullsize A chap performing on Stage Two. |
View fullsize Doggie! |
View fullsize Hurricane Isabel - that's Jo's sis on the right. |
View fullsize I also took four video clips of them... click here, here, here and here. The last one shows the local talent dancing...(!) |
View fullsize This three month old lab was being puppy walked, and when I asked to take a photo they offered to take one of me. He's enjoying having his ears rubbed. |
View fullsize What fantastic balloons! |
View fullsize A last glance at the main stage as we leave the site. |
View fullsize On the way out, Fiona helped herself to the entry sign... nice one! We broke many of the rules, or saw them being broken, I think. What a fab day out! Thanks very much to Jo for inviting me, and putting us up! |
