Let&#8217;s put some purple into Pride and remind everyone bisexuals exist.<\/p>\n<p>As usual the Pride organisers are not so&#8230;erm&#8230;organised. So I&#8217;m expecting some last minute time changes again, but here&#8217;s what we&#8217;ve got so far:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>&#8220;The March will start from Castlegate and will set off at 11.30am. Be Colourful, Noisy and PROUD!!&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Unhelpfully, that&#8217;s all the info they&#8217;ve provided!<\/p>\n<p>So let&#8217;s meet at <strong>11:00pm on the corner of Listergate, Albert Street and Castlegate<\/strong>. If you came last year, it will be the same place we met last year. If you didn&#8217;t come last year, walk down Albert Street from St Peter&#8217;s Square as if you&#8217;re going to train station. The parade start point is the first crossroads you&#8217;ll come to. You will be able to find me very easily. I will be the person with long brown hair and specs carrying two washing poles and a banner!<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m going to get a banner with the BiTopia logo printed on for us. Please can you\u00a0bring whistles, flags, poi, etc. I&#8217;d suggest wearing flat, comfortable shoes if you&#8217;re walking. Please wear purple if you can!<\/p>\n<p>Access: As soon as I know the route map for the parade I will post it. Last year the road\/pavement surfaces were quite smooth and flat and there were no steps, however the parade did go\u00a0up and down some slopes on streets like Pelham Street.<\/p>\n<p>After the parade we can go and get some food and drink somewhere to unwind and relax.<\/p>\n<p>  <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/gocomments\/nottinghambi.wordpress.com\/471\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.wordpress.com\/1.0\/comments\/nottinghambi.wordpress.com\/471\/\" \/><\/a> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/pixel.wp.com\/b.gif?host=nottinghambi.wordpress.com&#038;blog=39895539&#038;%23038;post=471&#038;%23038;subd=nottinghambi&#038;%23038;ref=&#038;%23038;feed=1\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I hope you can join us for the following if you&rsquo;re free: July Pub Social, Thursday 9th July, The Lord Roberts Pub, Broad Street, Nottingham,&nbsp;NG1 3AN. 7:30-11:00pm.
