But That Doesnt Mean They've Divorced Themselves From The Typical Weather Found Round These Parts!! - Tumblr Posts

Not very profound this time just a few photo dump of Manchester Pride Parade 2023!🌈

P.s. sorry to the mutuals who've prons seen about a hundred variation of this on every other social media - I promise I do try to post somet slightly different everytime!!!😝

Selfie of myself in front of the hotel room mirror draped in a progress flag that was tied together using my work's rainbow lanyard.
Another selfie of myself this time with my back facing the window - the stickers on the flag are also slightly more visible this time, namely the Manchester City Council's LGBT equality matters sticket along with the famous bee symbol for the city. As well as the OutdoorLads sticker with a photo of a bunch of lads in the outdoors. I believe they're a mental health support group for LGBT folks by encouraging people to go hike together with like-minded folks

Lets start off with the obnoxious selfies🤣🏳️‍🌈 - I swear I never used to be this narcissistic - just look at me ig as proof! 🙈🤣

Next we've got the first lot... (don't worry I won't post all 200+ groups not least because I do not have the patience nor effort to do that many alt texts)

P.s. and yes I'm going to just write the contexts in the alt text as well so as not to make this too lengthy.

very first group in the parade - with a  huge rainbow bridal train with a heart, beneath which says "queerly beloved"
a drag fairy godmother - much rainbow can be found on her costume
2nd group what went passed. I believe they may be one of the BAME groups but I didn't catch their name

Pride is defo one of the only times where you can be openly ogling appreciating hot men... 😝

Shame there weren't more though - I blame the weather!🌦️

Manchester Sharks Water Polo team who were all clad in just speedos
Various gay rugby union teams who marched together

... finally the quirky ones!

Classic car with some theatre group what broke down and started steaming...
it's not so quirky if you've been Manchester pride a few times but here's vanguard the traction engine clad in what I want to say bizarre mix of coronation decoration and pride decoration
twirling nuns dressed in what Neil said was "habits made out of ikea cloth" I believe they were with the sober social group

So that's that for manc pride I guess! Pride #1 of the year this time round and Preston next so stay tuned😎🌈 ( for the maybe a handful of you who're interested🤣)
