Well, had my first night out locally with the Croydon Trans Group. I have been out and about a little bit when staying away with work, but this is a relatively local area for me. My gorgeous wife dropped me off and collected me too, although I was in a more, how shall we say, liquid but completely lucid state, than when I arrived :heehee:. The pub was very quiet, so not many people to worry about. Was expecting it to be full of guys, so this made it a lot easier to relax.

There was only a small group of 6 when I arrived plus a couple of late arrivals during the evening, one of whom brightened the evening as she very chatty and it was like I had known her previously. The good news for the pub is the takings went up as I managed to drink my way through a few Vodka and Oranges (plus half pints of lager), so I kept the cash till warm :).

Moreover, it was my first opportunity to wear my new coat and shoes that I’ve been desperate to use, and seeing as I wanted to make a good impression, I bought a new cardigan and some D cup (size 8) silicone forms. Good old Doreen Fashions over Lea Bridge Road, E10 supplied those (product placement - when do I get my commission?). Well, a girl’s got to look her best after all. I also bought a new shift dress to wear but it was too tight, so had to steal a black dress from my wife :battingeyelashes:.

All in, it was an opportunity to meet others near me and as they meet on a monthly basis, I now have a regular outlet for socialising. They are looking to grow the group and hopefully that will succeed.

It is always nice to here of others getting out and meeting more of us Rebecca. Sharing ourselves helps with our self-acceptance and it is a great step if you are looking to go further with this. And even if you aren't, life is always enriched when we make more friends.

Next time I troll around the U.K. I must do a bit more than going to the way out club in London.
I wonder what happens around January apart from snow.
