I approached the hotel with my suitcase scraping along behind me. It had broken its wheel on the way here from the station and was now protesting loudly. I guess I packed too many clothes, but I wanted to have everything that I needed for the weekend. Trouble was, as this was my first one away, I wasn't quite sure what that meant.
I pushed open the glass doors and scanned the crowed for someone that I recognised. A pointless exercise it seems, as I later found out it didn't matter who you sat next to, everyone seemed friendly and happy enough to chat. It didn't seem to matter what time of the day it was either, there was always somebody about.
I found what I was looking for, a few of the ladies I knew from the club nights. We exchanged greetings for a few minutes before heading over to the reception desk to check-in. The lady at the desk had a smile on her face, because it turns out, the staff don't just tolerate us being in the hotel, they actually look forward to these weekends. They enjoy seeing us dressed up in all of our beautiful clothing and interesting themed-night outfits, which makes for a lovely change to their normal working days. And it shows through in their warmth and attitudes towards us.
I collected my key, and found the room that would become my home for the next few days. The majority of my time in the room would be spent in front of the mirror, getting ready for the various events and dinners I would partake in that weekend.
After unpacking, I began the process of beautifying myself in preparation for dinner. A simple outfit to start with, one of the new Transliving tops paired with a black skater skirt. Then I headed down to dinner. The restaurant was quite fancy with high ceilings, chandeliers, lovely staff and food that exceeded my expectations.

EASTBOURNE PLAYBOY BUNNIES SHOOT

BREE FRAM - Blazing trails to build a stronger military
U.S. Space Force Lt. Colonel Bree Fram will be remembered as a trailblazer for a transgender-inclusive military. This was not so obvious when we met about six years ago. However, she's well on her way to earn that distinction with a public track record of advocacy and leadership.
Sophie's 20 years later
In 2018 I was crowned Miss TLi and I won it on my first attempt - and first Eastbourne event for that matter - dressed as "Minnie Mouse", and after being a judge in 2019 there was something that stopped the following 2 years' events taking place... I can't quite remember what that was though??

Project 5.0
Like for many others, the Covid years were more difficult in more ways than one for me. I had lost the occasional night out dressed, the ability to dress regularly, and had even more uncertainty of what the future held.
