That Special Person
We all have that special someone, or that small group of people, in our lives. It's a shame we don't celebrate our relationships more often, let them know - as here at the CSD in Bremerhaven - that they are the one(s).

Bremerhaven: The Hidden
The Christopher Street Day parade in Bremerhaven is only three years old, one of the newest to join a massive following of Pride celebrations in Germany, and proudly taking its place among all the others as the movement grows, as more people show their true colours and come out onto the streets.

Travelling: Tickets I Have Known.
I have been a traveller since the early Seventies, beginning in England, travelling and working in Wales and Scotland, exploring Northern Ireland and, later, Ireland. At a young age I made my first trip overseas to France where, mouth open in amazement, I discovered that the French, and other European foreigners, looked and acted much the same as we did on our small island. My first trust issues, especially of a specific teacher in my North Yorkshire school, began to surface.

Friendship
It doesn't matter where you are, the signs are clear: friends out together. Two people, sharing time and experiences. It is said that women can hold far better friendships to one another than men can, but with the caveat that each has its own level, its own expectations, and often its own gender specifics.

Schwerin: The Parade.
Christopher Street Day, celebrated across Germany as in many other countries, and a time when countless people of all persuasions come together to show their colours, to celebrate, to campaign for improvement, to be seen and to be counted.
