Big Night Out
I went to Big Night out at Pink Punters on Friday 10th April. It was great to see so many tgirls there. the place was packed. I was especially delighted to see Alex Kingsley and Vanessa Pride.

ALEX AND I ( It was nearly 4:00 a.m. and Alex looks as fresh as a daisy and I look like a trampled daisy)
They were the first trannies I ever met and were really kind and helpful in reassuring me and helping me realise I wasn't the only tranny in the village.
I'm usually found on the dance floor but this time I had quite a few chats and felt more at home than ever before. I chatted with Faith and Victoria and some really nice Tgirls I hadn't met before. Sorry I'm crap at names but I did take their photos:
ALEX AND VICTORIA
I tried to meet up with Louisa. She was going out for the first time enfemme but work commitments stopped her. I had a fabulous time and everyone was so friendly it was unbelievable.
There were a couple of hiccups. On the way to PP, I was running out of petrol and garages (most were closed) so I risked going 15 miles and managed to get to a garage that was still open, Phew!
One of my friends had visions of me in party frock and high heels walking along the main carriage way with a petrol can and being helped by a kindly man, stopping to rescue his damsel in distress. Then finding out it was a distressed dame.
I braved it out of the car, got my fuel and stupidly tried to walk into the garage which had its doors locked. I did panic momentarily as I though they had just closed but then realised the service window was open. there were a few people about but I didn't get any stares or comments so that was a bit of a boost for my ego.
Then, on the way back from PP at about 5:00 am I was stopped by a police car. When I wound my window down I could just read the policeman's face : " OMG! What have I got here?"
I got out of the car and was really worried. You see I had changed into my brown driving boots and they totally clashed with my silk patterned frock. I must get some nice driving shoes.
I told the PC I had only one drink. " Well you will be alright then if you've only had one pint"
Bloody cheek I thought! I'm a layyyydyyy! So I said " No it was a Bacardi breezer" he seemed unimpressed. To be fair he didn't call me Sir or Madam but was very gender neutral.
Strange thing was, earlier at PP I had been discussing with Victoria if we carried our driving licences when we are frocked up and we agreed that we wouldn't.
I was breathalysed. The PC sighed with relief when I registered zero. He couldn't get away fast enough. To tell all his mates back at the station.
If these two incidents had happened to me just six months ago I would have freaked out. Now that I am more comfortable in my interchangeable genders/ combined genders, I was totally relaxed about it and found them both amusing. I was actually feeling sorry for the copper having to deal with me.
OK I cannot finish this post without a pun. So if I learnt anything about the events of that day it must be that you must carry a petrol can with you, you must not drink and drive, you must take nice driving shoes and you must fill up your tank at least a few hours before you set off. In fact...
Keep a can in your boot, don't boot up if you can, only drink from a can or you may end up in the can or in boot camp.
