review

The party continues... Sunday morning was a bit of a strain with only about 10% of the party showing up for breakfast, but by the time Canal Street warmed up at 2ish the group was out in force. Alcohol began to flow freely again, and by 5 even I'd forgotten how little sleep I'd had.

		Manchester GayFest 2000 It was the very best birthday weekend anyone could hope for. Lots and lots of lovely people all in one place at one time, a gorgeous hotel, a lovely meal, and a Canal Street to explore. view review

Keiran organised an urgent message to be phoned around all the rooms, "Sam's waiting in the lobby with the bus-driver". Well. That really got everyone moving... view review

		Manchester Day 1 photos by Sam Milford Yes I know it was a bit early to be setting off from St.Peter's Church, but at least it meant getting to Manchester before midnight... And what better excuse do you need to scoff croissants and drink Champagne at 8 in the morning? view review
