whitby2009
 Armed with my camera, a corset or two, made my way across the Yorkshire moors, to one of my favourite towns here in England for WGW. Arrived late Saturday which blew out all photography plans (thanks National Express trains for making me miss all my connections). A beautiful clear day, so joined up with DaveFish and Dot for engagement celebrations, then off to dinner with the rest of the gang, before I knew it I was being escorted home, after ending up on the Little A. (Thanks Mike) Sunday was truly awful weather. Tried to do a set in the old alleyway while waiting for Sherlocks to open, got a few shots but it was fooking freezing. Then Sherlocks opened up and with the permission of the owner and with Davefish fancy lens, was allowed to play for a bit in this stunning location. Wonderful to see everyone and hopefully Charles and I will be back for April. Huge thanks to all who put up with me and the Yorkshire winter weather. A couple of my favourites so far.

Berith Appeal
To the person that found BERITH,
I am appealing to you and want to let you know how much that little bear means to us.He has no monetary value but is priceless to us. It isn't just a teddy but a very important part of our little bizarre family composed by cats & teddy bears.
Berith is one of the few constant sources of confort and tenderness we have and, as a person who tends to be ill a lot & is cronically depressed , I personally am finding it really hard to cope without him, especially as I have had quite a difficult year so far. He goes everywhere with us, clubs, pubs, outings, holidays...
I just beg you to send him back. Contact or send him to the Whitby Gazette. We offer a wee £50 reward,and no questions asked, too. Please send him back home. We miss him terribly. Thanks!
Faith & Andreu Current Mood:  depressed |

Gothwatch UK
Were you at Whitby in October 2006? Did you have a close encounter with some military types? Are you the sort of Goth who loses things on beaches? Gothwatch UK needs your help... I noticed this story in the Whitby gazette where a camera was found on the beach which contained a memory card. The paper are hoping someone will claim the card and published this picture to help you:  Do you know who these recruits are? I have my theories ;@) Current Mood:  curious |

FIND BERITH. TEDDY BEAR MISSING. PLEASE HELP.
As some of you may know, Sunday after the 80'S night we went to the Resolution and werre having a great time until I realised Berith, one of our beloved little teddy beras had ben shamelessly stolen from us. He & Charlotte & Franky (new addition to the flock) had been partying and dancing on a wee table by the pool table and when we went to pick them up BERITH was gone.
The staff says they saw the bears actually on the snooker table which means the 3 local men who were playing pool had moved them & put all but Berith back where they had been all night. ANDREU now remembers a GIRL WITH KNEE HIGH SOCKS & PINK BOOTS/SHOES WITH A TOO FULL WHITE BAG leving the scene.
I trust you know how important the little ones are for us. Berith is very loved and has been with us in many adventures, has his own myspace page & sleeps with us all the time.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE If you see him or taht woman, let us know. We want to put a reward even. It is very important. I hope you all understand.
This is not a joke. We miss him terribly. He adopted us on the 14th of February 2007, the day I got my UK residence & we all went to celebrate at Mestizo & then the Devonshire Arms in Camden. He has been everywhere with us as some of you may have noticed. I am not joking. We are devastated.
Please help us find him:(

Catharsis
 My photos from the weekend - rather less than usual, perhaps - can be found by clicking on the picture to the left. No football, this time, obviously, thanks to the atrocious weather on Sunday washing it out. Real Gothic will be back in April for another attempt at winning back the trophy.

Capacity Issues
No, not the venues, the town. The sheer weight of numbers on the swingbridge on Saturday afternoon stopped traffic. It also stopped me from going over to the old town because I really didn't fancy being crushed. Is this a phenomenon of the number of goths comming to town for 'unofficial Whitby' - i.e. not attending the main ticketed events; a result of the photo frenzy or just a coincidence of local school holidays and fair weather (on Saturday at least)? Is there a point where someone declares the town 'full'? Will we have to have wristbands to enter Whitby? I'm interested in other people's experience of the crowds this weekend, and whether they affected your plans for this or future Whitby Weekends. |

incorrect printed information in the Almanack ?
I can't understand why the entry in the (very useful and nicely precented) Whitby weekend Almanack listing the Darklands night upstairs at the Resolution of Friday 30th had www.darkdaisypromotions.co.uk written beneath. To my knowledge this well-established night/event has no connection whatsoever with darkdaisy and I am concerned that people are, unless anyone is able to correct me on this, being misinformed. In these latest times of rumour and cut-throat competition I would like the record set straight please, if there is anyone who is able and qualified to comment on this printed attribution. |
