March 2002 |
After the photo party in February,
things began to improve a little. First off was DJ Dave's birthday held at
the Sandridge Hotel in Newquay. DJ Dave is a very dear friend of ours. His
camp music selection, together with style of dancing and his whole demeanour
has made him world famous in the Newquay area. Of course he is equally well
known by his other persona, Miss Lucy Lastic For a full report, including
photos, please click here |
However, the joy and delights
inspired by Lucy's party were to be short lived. Horror of horrors ! News
arrived that the Sandridge was to be sold and transformed over night into a
backpacker's b&b. Two weeks later we were back in
Newquay, making plans for the Grand Finale Party at our favourite club. The
evening coincided with a new girl's (Shannon) debut from the Isle of Wight,
and we had a FAB time. For more information and, of
course, LOTS of piccies, please click here All too soon, the week passed and
one of the saddest days in all of trannydom came to pass. Nevertheless we
were determined to make it a night to remember. For a photographic report of the
wonderful albeit VERY sad evening at the Sandridge Hotel, please click here |
Well that was IT - the very last party
EVER at the Sandridge Hotel. Of course the friends we made there will be
friends for life. We still meet up quite regularly, but it will never be the
same again. But 'never' is a long, long time. Perhaps a new venue will be
found before too long and we can all enjoy again, the fabulous atmosphere
created at the Sandridge by Pat the owner, now retired. My only regret is
that we didn't find it years earlier. Thank you Pat and God Bless ! |
