Friday 9th June - all of you are invited to come along to my birthday do at Pink Punters (and splunch the next day in central MK) It's a brilliant night with a very friendly atmosphere, its created for CD/TV and trans but it is a general LGBT club and anyone is welcome, man, woman, straight, gay, curious, tv/cd/ts, not sure, badger, etc etc are welcome. The staff really look after you and it's not too packed, lots of drinking and dancing, 3 different floors of music and a huge outside section with 3 or 4 firepits for the smokers among you
I have rooms booked (one left now but think rooms are still available on the campanile website) for the Friday night (they are cancellable) at the campanile hotel which is just opposite the club. I originally booked these for me, henners, maria, sploshed and a CD friend of mine but we are in an apartment now instead. The one I have left is a twin room at £65 and cancellable til the day before the meet.
The campanile is great for any CD/TV nervous about going out dressed 'en femme' as the hotel and staff see this every week of every year for the past 17 years. No one will bat an eyelid and you just walk over the road to the club, no need for taxi's. We'll also as a group meet up at the hotel and walk over to the club together
I look forward to seeing you there - please don't be nervous, we are all friendly, not cliquey and will look after you
If anyone needs help with anything regarding the day please message me or email candycustardwam@gmail.com
Oh and in the spirit of the club here's some LGBT themed male, female and CD messy pics just for making sure we're definitely on topic. Enjoy! haha
Ooh also anyone who may have missed it check out my venture into male wam at www.candyguyswam.com and follow twitter @candyguyswam (thank you!)
FAQ
What is a splunch?
A splunch is a SPloshers LUNCH (geddit?) - also taken from the 'bdsm' term 'munch' meaning a vanilla meet up. Just friends chatting in the pub, enjoying being around like minded people, some lunch, maybe some dinner, lots of chat, and lots of beer (or whatever everyones beverage of choice is) there are always opportunities to make new connections, friends, maybe even lovers...
Can you pie me there?
There is no sploshing at a splunch itself, it's in a pub not a plastic lined room after all so c'mon use your noggin...
Who is going and can I get messy with them?
Some people attending may live in the area and be able to host a messing afterwards, or some may be staying in hotels that could withstand a messy session. Keep an eye on the guest list someone with similar interests and faves is bound to be attending. Post on the thread yourself to let others know you are coming just in case you are that 'similar interests' person for someone else! Or maybe you can simply meet others, have a chat and a good time and arrange something messy another time. Or whatever.
Is there a dress code?
Nope not really. For the night out, Pink Punters dress code is just that footwear must be worn at all times. So please don't wear your 7 inch stilletoes for the first time without making sure they are comfy! Aside from that anything goes. if I can find something I like i might be in PVC or just a nice dress.
For the MK splunch, well it's a Milton Keynes pub. You be the judge of what is appropriate to wear to a pub
I want to attend but I'm really nervous
That's fine - most first timers are. We are lovely non cliquey understanding people, likeminded and friendly, and many of us understand things like anxiety and have been there ourselves. Feel free to message me if there's anything we can do to make you more comfortable.
anything else just message me or ask on the thread

I'll echo these sentiments and if you haven't been to an event like either of these before you will have a brilliant time and wondered why on earth you've never done it before!
I will say for the Friday night, just make sure you have a very comfortable outfit and especially shoes!!! It's a long night and even if you're shoes "feel really comfy" they WILL still hurt by the end of the night :/.............I know they look amazing, but......it's a very fine line so beware haha
Soooooo...........looking forward to this
BTW Candy........I will be there for both events and staying for food on the Saturday evening
Hooray! I'm really hoping we can make it to the splunch. We're working on the Friday evening, so sadly can't attend the club, but fingers crossed we can be there on the Saturday. I'll be able to let you know for sure closer to the time
I am very much looking forward to coming to the Splunch and seeing some more of the great people I met last time and, me being me, being enormously embarrassed at having forgotten all their names.

You can't go too badly wrong calling everyone Dave... You'll be right more often than you think!

I'd love to come - in fact, some of my first outings when I was starting to explore my own gender identity were to pinks and I'm long overdue a trip back - but unfortunately it's my birthday on the Sunday, so I'm going away with some friends that weekend. Sorry.
Maria Candy Henry Sploshed Candy's friend SecretSlutJade NicolaGreen
and I think a few more people who have messaged privately or who were on the thread in personals but not posted here yet
and for Saturday Splunching we have
Maria Candy Henry Sploshed JnC & JeremyCustard Rev Lisa Leon Alex Charlotte TheDon88 JaffaJape
and again possibly a few more who attended the night before and/or have messaged etc etc - apologies if your name was missed on either list, it will be because you haven't messaged me very recently and you haven't posted on this thread - doesn't mean you're suddenly not on the list or something and can't attend
The anticipation of a great night out at Pink's is starting to build now with work finished till Monday and a cheeky beer just for medicinal purposes of course
If you're still thinking about this just do it! it'll be a blast and you'll have the time of your life
Will be cool to see new and a few familiar faces on Saturday and I've gotta say.................I can't wait to meet the Moomins/Charlotte and Al on Saturday too!
