Getting all excited now!! 

Don't forget your brollies though, forecast is a little damp..

Any confirmation of what we are doing at night yet?

One of my friends over here is a friend of Paul at Kiki's, don't know if we are going there, anyway any ideas?

Hello Pam and Others

Lunch is booked for 1.30 pm in Emma's name.

Originally I was intending to travel from Liverpool South Parkway but I wish to avoid Northern Rail and their Bus Replacement Services. Therefore I am traveling directly from Liverpool Lime St to Manchester Victoria and I am meeting Sophie there at 11.30 or a little later if my train late. Then Sophie and I ( it is first time out of our home town/city for us) are having a coffee before walking to the lunch venue in advance of 1.30.

Others are welcome to join Sophie and me if you wish by all means.

I am also not staying for any evening do but will stay for a few drinks and chat till late afternoon and probably get my return train at 6.24.

I am nervous but I know I will really enjoy this event both to give me confidence but also to meet and chat with so many nice ladies.

See you in 24 or 26 hours.

Hugs to all you

Pamela  xx

Hi,

Would love too, I've arranged to meet Pamela at the station but haven't heard from her yet.
Once I find her I'll message you to meet for a coffee??

Hi Pamela is here at the restaurant

Hello again

As you know the high winds and rain in the NW caused flooding making me an hour late at Victoria  - sorry about that - but I still arrived safely at the restaurant in plenty of time.

Yesterday was a truly wonderful occasion which I shall greatly treasure both as a result of meeting so many nice ladies but also as it has instilled in me great confidence for the future. Furthermore the meal was excellent and we discussed so many subjects both trans and non trans related.

To Katie, Davina and Sophie who stayed overnight, I hope you enjoyed your breakfast and I wish you a safe journey home.

I wish to thank you Emma for arranging this event and for your kind words of encouragement. Thank you to all for your warm welcome.

We shall chat on Susans many times over the coming months and I look forward to seeing you in September/October.

Hugs to all

Pamela  xx

PS: Just to confirm that pursuant to yesterday, I feel "top of the world"

Just got back (2 .30 pm) as Sunday train service is naff . Had a marvellous time last night myself Katie and Emma  bar crawling Canal St !!!!! and it was so nice to meet every one else. Looking forward to the next one.

I blame these 2

And a few more pics.
Luncheon and then later on selfies (blurred ones are intentional - ahem..) at various establishments.

Katie (not asleep honest) and Davina

Me, on a train home (train was very full) feeling happy mellow and tired.

Needless to day Both Davina and I were dragged onto the dance floor by a hen party. they were lovely and all the other Katie's on the party had their photo with me, whatever for  don't know...

Was a bit noisy as these places are but I thoroughly enjoyed it.

I think we should talk about one towards the south of the country next time, Sept or October - who is up for that?

I cant thank Emma enough for organising this (and didn't she and Davina, Pamela, Pamela and Sophie look gorgeous?) and I know it was difficult for a few girls to make it and that's completely understandable, but Kudos to Sophie and Pamela for whom this was a first proper outing as themselves I understand. Well done ladies, much respect earned for that. Now you hopefully feel that you have made a good step in the right direction in your lives.

If Emma can remember the names of the bars etc we attended in the correct order then that would be good please? I have no idea seriously.. no idea why..

Loved it.

Thanks everybody, take care

Luv n Hugz

Katie

Glad the nighttime was also such a success.

Yes The southern part of the country sounds great for a Saturday in September or October and as a northern girl, I shall be staying overnight then.

A good step in the right direction for me - most definitely! I don't know what the hell I was worried about! Wonderful occasion. Memorable event. Insecurity disappearing now. Full of confidence which I believe I can and shall take forward.

Thanks everyone and thanks also for the photos.

Hugs to all
