Wednesday 16th April
Our Manchester Wednesday social evening is centred on meeting between 8pm to 11pm in Iconic Bar at 29 Richmond Street M1 3NB where we get 10% off their drinks just for being us :-)
There are usually around 20ish that will be out during the evening, not all are always in Iconic at the same time as people drift in and out through the evening.
The ladies out will vary from first time out socially to full time experienced and everything in between and they will be both locals and visitors from around the country.
Everyone is always friendly and approachable but if you are alone or new, ask for me when you get here and I will introduce you to everyone. If you come and sit on the edge of the group without asking for me I will assume you want privacy so I won't interrupt you. If you need additional support such as being met at your hotel I am always happy to come and do that 'cos I love wandering around Manchester :-)
During the daytime I will be out around Manchester centre and/or local towns shopping and cafe-ing, if you want to join me please just ask but please be on time as I am not good at hanging aorund waiting :-)
Some of us eat out before Iconic between 5:45pm to 8pm and this week we will eat in the Slug & Lettuce, Albert Square M2 5HD which is just behind the Town Hall. If you want to join us you are very welcome.
I get asked if the non-LGB places I go to are "trans friendly"..... in my experience if we behave and dress sensibly and stay alert we are at no greater risk than cisgender women who in their daily lives have to be aware of VAWG (violence against women and girls) but if you don't want to leave the village you will usually find some of our ladies out in either Velvet or Via before 8pm.
When Iconic closes at 11pm I leave the village again, you are welcome to join me if you wish, if you prefer to stay in the village then popular locations to go to at that time are; The Goose, New York New York, Eva, Via, Oscar's, The Brewers, BarPop .... there is also Centre Stage but I am am barred from there so I obviously will not give it any recommendation, please make your own choice about it.
If you don’t know Manchester check TV Chix venues for insights as I keep the Manchester clubs, bars, restaurants, hotel and parking information up to date, just search TV Chix venues using “Manchester”. Ask me if you want deeper insights or want to know about anywhere not listed as I will either know it or I can check it out for you.
You can also join our Manchester & North West Facebook Networking group "The Buzz". It is a private and very secure group so you will need to ask me for an invitation to it.
Men are welcome to join us on our Wednesdays but must come as a guest of one of the Ladies attending so you have someone to introduce you to everyone. I ask all men to be polite and respectful to all the ladies because we are a social group, not a knocking shop.
Any questions not answered in the above, just ask me. Finally, why not find reasons to come out rather than reasons not to come out because you can only have memories of the things that you do.

Touch Sauna in swindon, the southwest’s largest venue. Opened in 2012, touch sauna is a Gay owner operated sauna, aiming to offer that more personal touch ,)
One thing you can always count on is a friendly face at the bar, Skot, Ollie & Gary are the only workers at Touch Sauna, 4 days a week, every hour we're open, allowing everyone to get to know at least one of us, making your visit more intimate... Over the last 10 years of running our T-Girls & Admirers event, we’ve met some fantastic people, we’re so grateful for the support that we’ve received in helping to build this event into what it is today.
We’ve been working hard to improve our facilities for T-Girls to get ready once they arrive, and whilst it’s not perfected just yet, don’t worry! We’re busy beavering away to make our venue as user friendly as possible.
With a fully licensed bar & large lounge area, we can cater for those T-Girls who enjoy a comfort and relaxation. Get comfortable and make yourself at home!
The rest of the building caters more for the mischievous T-Girls… We have a wide variety of glory holes; from being watched to having five at once! Our cinema rooms provide both gay, straight and trans porn, so there's something for everyone... But if none of that takes your fancy, and the sling just isn't private enough; set yourself up in one of our private rooms, with lockable doors so you and your playmate(s) can really get to know one another.
For the smokers or even sun lovers, our private roof terrace catches the sun all day, and for those chilly winter evenings, dressing gowns and a heat lamp are provided to take the edge off...
Admirers, you’ll be provided a towel to change into on entry, but you can remain dressed if you wish to (no footwear). We understand that not everyone may be comfortable wearing just a towel when the T-Girls look as good as they do!
We have shower facilities available in our Wet Area, however due to the structure of the event. The only other Wet area facility that is in operation on a Wednesday is the Sauna.
Words aren't really enough so we ask you to come down and try it for yourselves!
We're sure you'll find the venue comfortable and welcoming, pop into the bar for a chat and a quick drink before heading down the other end (if you so desire) and make use of the facilities .... When you touch it P U R R S.
Scott, Ollie and Gary

Retro Rendezvous is probably London's best free, purely social, weekly gathering of t-girls, transexuals, and occasional admirers. In a great friendly gay / mixed bar. Just the place to make your debut in a dress and get to know a lovely bunch of people.
We are usually downstairs at the back on the left, but there should be a notice on the the board in the entrance.
Tables reserved from 8. You may be the first, but don't worry, you won't be alone for long. We drink, we chat, we gossip, we put the world to rights, we may flirt, and we always try to be stylish. Well-behaved male admirers are welcome to join us.
