Next nights out
Wed 8th Leeds
Wed 22nd Sept London

1st Sept out in Manchester again, I was at a loose end and it was a choice of another trip to Manchester or somewhere in County Durham in a hotel on my own, no choice really. Sat outside Velvet for an hour on my own enjoying the general ambience without seeing a single tgirl, err this is looking a bit quiet she thought. Then it was down to Eden for a bite to eat, again not many in, but joined another girl for a meal and made a new friend, Debs who is a lovely person. Then it was Churchills where I bumped into Barbara and Molly Bramwell, spent a very pleasant couple of hours with them, sitting outside Churchills and later in Via Fossa. Finished off the night as usual in Naps, have I said too much?

Wed 25th August, had a great night out with Rachel H in and around the village in Manchester. She came back from holiday in Wales just to see me, how sweet is that? Lots of new outfits to try and some new hairstyles. Had a few drinks and a nice meal in Velvet, then socialised in Paddys Goose for a while where we were joined by Rosie and Emily. Bumped into Marolyn, Jenny, Leanne and others on the way out and then spent a couple of hours chatting in Naps. Oh its so good to be back!


In Edinburgh on 14th July but didn't make it out, me and Tabby ate in and put the world to rights as usual, and played loads of music, bit of a late one.
Out on my own in Newcastle on Thursday 15th July. Met some lovely ladies (rgs) in the Yard and had a nice time for a couple of hours but turned in early as I was still tired from the previous nights session.

Blackpool Thursday 1st July, had a great night out despite the rain, like where did that come from, wall to wall sunshine, we go out in Blackpool and it rains! Out with the girlies Michelle, Jacqui and Becky. Sat outside Moores (before the rain) for 2 hours having the odd glass of wine with Michelle. Then joined by Jacqui around 6pm, lovely meal in Tiramasu. Then it was a bit a a hike in the rain to Bar Diamante, fun but a bit dead that night. Now am I being prissy or something? This guy comes across in Diamante and starts talking to us and saying things like "I've got so much respect for you guys" and he wasn't using the word "guys" in the omni sense. Quite honestly I find that so objectionable, had a right little strop and wouldn't talk to him, the others were more understanding but like I said at one poiint, "I don't get all dressed and prettied up to be called a bloke" Now I don't mind being read, that goes with the territory, but I wish some of these people would get their gender pronouns right, I'm a girl, its love, she, her, bitch whatever but not guys, its just so disrespectful !!! ok rant over.
Spent an hour in Roxys then, and we were joined by the lovely Becky, had to endure the gruesome drag show, fanny international or something.
Finished the night with a dance and lots of posing in Mardi Gras. Like we walked in there and we were the only girls in, lit the place up, 100 men all looking at us. Ok they were gay, but they still can't take their eyes off us, its gotta be better than looking at each other now hasn't it!
Oh yes we love Blackpool !

Wed 23rd June out in Manchester with Rosie and Rachel H. So many people about celebrating Englands win over Slovenia. Walked the length of Canal St with Rosie through all the blokey football supporters. Sat out in the street for a few glasses of the red stuff. Then a nice meal in Velvet, followed by some serious flirting in Paddys Goose, we made a few old admirers night I think. Then changed, danced and chatted in Naps until the early hours.

Just done a major pics update. All pics are now this year 2010, and most of them are very recent from nights out in May. Image seems to be all over the place at the moment, seems to be different every night, hence so many different styles on this page at the moment.

Just back from a two nighter so a bit shattered, not enuf sleep and too much partying, need to pace myself a bit these days.

Manchester was good on Wed 26th May, drinks with Michelle in Tribeca early evening, about 10 of us then ate in Velvet with a drink afterwards next door in Taurus. At this point me and Michelle went back to the Atrium to change, but that was an extended break, needed to sober up a bit. But this time it was Michelle who didnt make the final part of the night, fell asleep in her room. So I hit Naps about 12, a few girls there I know, stayed until about 2.30.
And Thur 27th out in Leeds with Michelle now recovered, and Martina. But this time we drank a lot less and it was a better night. Stayed at the Cosmopolitan which has to be about the best deal in town £55 for a really large lovely double room and free overnight parking.
Out at 6.30, did the bar at the Cosmo. Bridge Inn across the way, and ate at the Malmaison which was really lovely. Martina joined us as we were finishing the meal, then it was a long walk into straight Leeds to Greek St and a bar that is fast becoming our favorite in Leeds, The Living Room. Total straightsville but we get some good interaction in there with both girls and guys, they love us!
Then a quick change, hitch up the skirts and finished off the night with a bit of a dance in The New Penny.
So all in all a lot of fun but totally exhausting.

Bit of a bash around Leeds Thursday 20th May, late start 9pm with Martina, Italian meal, Queens Court and finished off in the New Penny which was quietish for once.

We stopped the traffic!!
Me and Rachel H Wed 5th May Manchester, Princess St the whole flow of traffic stopped to let us cross! What a buzz,and the first time that has ever happened to us. Just hope they all enjoyed the view as we teetered across in our skirts and heels, WOW !!
That was a great Manchester night, early evening drinks with Rachel H in Tribeca, got chatting to a few folks which was fun, then a meal in Velvet. Later on it was Naps, met a very nice new friend Pam, and caught up with old friends like Marolyn (who is now full time) returning on a Wed after a 3 year gap, Jenny (now Post Op) and CindywithaC. Only had a short dance this time as the DJ was so crap and refused to play any good music. Later on we had a long chat with the most gorgeous and natural girl Leila (just amazed that she only does it 2 or 3 times a year), just stunning, and that voice!!
Great to be back!

The home of feminine Rachelness
I like to think I'm a woman, its a strange delusion I have. I look like one (well the very best I can anyway), I certainly behave like one. Perhaps some of you guys should try treating me like one eh?

Early part of 2010 has been a lot of fun, out about 14 times Jan to March, in Manchester, Leeds, Edinburgh, Newcastle and even Blackpool and York (once each). Also been having facial massage during this time which seems to be producing some results

Can I ever get enough of this? It seems I'm having the time of my life and I don't ever want it to stop!!!!

2nd half of 2009 (late season) was a blast as usual, out lots in Leeds and Manchester with the odd night in Edinburgh thrown in for good measure. Just kept it going really. Michelle was about again which always means fun nights and well Rachel H, what can I say? She is my best friend, such fun to be with and without her I wouldn't be the Rachel I am today, just owe her so much!

Spring and summer were good, tried to find a few venues when I was in Sydney in April, found the Taxi Club, but I wasnt looking my best and only found a couple of girls to chat to. Saw Michelle off in Leeds at the end of April, for her long sabbatical, but kept going myself (15 nights I think, you lose count). Leeds twice and Manchester and Edinburgh numerous. Summer was a blast, Sparkle was fun (if you like that kind of thing, too many people for me I'm afraid, but nice to catch up with old friends like Marolyn, not seen her for so long). Lots of nights out and about Edinburgh and Manchester though, and got to sit out in the sun lots, with a few snogs along the way (oops!) Thanks to my best friend Rachel H for making so many of those nights such fun, and Tabby in Edinburgh for putting me up and putting up with me so much.

Well 2009 has been a blast so far, in the first 3 months out 12 times, including London (1), Blackpool (1), Edinburgh (with Tabby, 2), Sheffield (1), and Leeds and Manchester numerous.
Highlights, shopping in central Manchester, wandering about the west end of London both at night and during the day. The Green Fingernail in Soho is such a cool bar.

Basically I am an out there glam party girl.

Whats it all about? (Alfie), What are we trying to achieve? Its a mystery and a big fascination and I guess its what brings us all back here time and time again, girls and admirers alike.
My personal take on this is, I am not trying to look like a drag queen, transvestite, tgirl slut or whatever, I am trying to be a truly feminine lady or girl. I wish I could start some kind of group on here that reprersents that, but its not currently possible. So here is Rachel's list of truly feminine girls. Go check them out, its heady stuff. It makes no difference whether girls call themselves transvestitites, tgirls or TS, some have it, most don't. These girls have it in buckets:-

Rachel H Best friend and role model
Lucy Hamilton Stunning and truly the best
Cindy A friend and a relative newbie, but so stunning, another one who is now only on Flickr
Jacqui C Another friend, and a true lady
Barbara D (Babs) A recent friend, and one interesting lady
Candi Store The most stunning bunny on the block (still haven't met her) Now only on Flickr
Charlotte Anne Gorgeous TS, shy girl, met her once
June Love Another friend, such a natural girl
Michelle (Meeshme) Michelle, London TS, very gorgeous and natural
Rachel Fox The Fox, just so femme, met her once she is lovely
Lauren Scarlett Well what can we say about Lauren? top of the tree for me
Simone Elegance An example of a TV that truly has it (learn some of you TS's)
Kay Turner This girls pics do not do her justice, in the flesh she is just amazing, and a great girl
Sarah Summer Makes such a natural girl, beautiful
Jenny Manchester Class act
Sandra Brighton Breathtaking beauty
Davina So convincing I couldn't tell, just wish she would stop flashing her fanny thats all, we are sooo jealous
Laura Handbag Gorgeous girl, met her once in London, so lovely
Kirsty Sutton Apparently a closet girl, but with those looks goodness knows why.
And now some of the very best tg women on Flickr
Laurette Victoria Robyn Michaels Jayne Beth Dee Gregory Eva Machandel Laura Lenley Katerina Wilson Leslie Anne Carollyn Faith Olsen

This list may grow with time
If I could be somewhere in that list, I would be a truly happy lady
Now some of my best and dearest friends are missing from this list, don't be offended girls, you know your agenda is somewhat different to mine!, be happy!

I am a feminine Tgirl who is interested in nights out to pubs restuarants and clubs, and basically living the life. I have a wide circle of tgirl and real girl friends, but its a non exclusive club, always open to new interesting and feminine girls. I have blue eyes and usually blonde highlighted hair (but it changes). I am about 5ft 10in without my heels and I am a size 16 and getting slimmer by the day (gym 5 times a week). I do go out in the big wide world en femme from time to time as well. I am interested in meeting intelligent "girls" with similar interests, for nights out.

I am also interested in being dated by nice intelligent guys, but I have high standards and you need to be a gentleman and romantic.
I will only meet genuine, nice guys who make me feel safe, special and treat me like a lady should be treated. I am famously choosey to the point of inactivity, but amaze me guys, treat me right and I might amaze you!

Dislikes;
Bad drivers, ie those that don't know the rules of the road.
People who can't accept us for what we are (ie gorgeous!!!), and who think we are just transvestites (like so wide of the mark eh girls?)
Girls on this site who just have to show off their bits, my advice is keep it tucked away girls, you aren't a girl if you are showing off like that !!!

Rachel xxx.
