the stools were good, nice food stands and worth while advise from various people. The techno band was not very good all songs sounded the same but that is my taste. otherwise all good Stacey |

How it was for me: Well I just got back from Manchester and I reckon my third consecutive Sparkle was worth going to. The weather held off for the park event on Saturday. Lynne Featherstone's opening speech was quite heartening I thought and I know her sentiments are in the right place. My friends and I popped into the TV Chix BarBar night; I'm not a regular Chix and that was a first for me. The free shots were a huge bonus so we didn't have to buy so much bottled beer. Good free cabaret elsewhere same night after we moved on. Best singer to my mind was the girl in the denim skirt who sung Bowie at AXM in the Sparkle Opening Party. Like last year, after a bit of a slow start, Canal Street became packed during Saturday. The thing I like most about Sparkle is how I always run into lovely friends from everywhere in the country as well as some of my local lot. Security has come on leaps and bounds since two years ago and huge congratulations to the Manchester Police and co-workers for putting on all those much-needed extra foot patrols. I love my free neck-cord whistle too. How to improve it: Sparkle is the number one national event and needs to continue. Please donate to Sparkle to help keep it going and make it even bigger and encourage the organisers. I did and I have no axe to grind. I am in no way any kind of Sparkle organiser and I just go there to enjoy it. In these times, cost control is a big issue for many. Let's share our ideas and experiences to help each other. Here's mine: In Charles St. car park, if parking Friday evening, you need to re-park your car on Saturday -otherwise you keep paying the high weekday rate. I parked around 5pm friday and payed 7 quid until late Saturday morning. I paid, went out and went in agan, and it cost only four more quid for the rest of the weekend until Sunday afternoon. Anyway, I loved it and long may it continue for those like me who have a less-serious side to the nature. x |

An un believable, weekend just superb. Met some wonderful people there. Got chatting to real couples, t-girls, gays, all so friendly and interesting, all exepted t-girls, no problems at all On the saturday morning, around 11am, the heavens opened and there was a mighty downpour of rain, lasted around 20 mins, but for the rest of the day it was dry and sunny Napoleans was so crowded on the saturday evening there was a que at the door waiting to get in, so we went to the Molly house instead, nice in there. I feel it was even bettter than last year Can't wait for next year's now |

Sparkle 2011 was excellent with apparently hundreds if not thousands on t-girls there to enjoy themselves. Of course many venues were crowded and Naps on Saturday was like a furnace but who cares? We had a great time. |

Just gets better and better - The park on Saturday was particularly wonderful and a real celebration of the communtiy. No shortage of events in the evenings - perhaps even too many to get around. Roll on Sparkle 8! |
