London Calling...
 

W/we're actually in East Sussex but hey, close enough....

So, who else is in the UK?

And hello back at you.:)

W/we've been living in the UK for over two years now and have yet to meet another B/F couple. W/we've seen some, but not actually met any.

Sad huh?

That's terribly sad! :(

Hi from Seattle! :)

Hey Cara :)

My partner lived in Seattle for some 16 years or so and Hy's always saying how similar the climate there is to the one we have here in the UK. Something about Seattle and the UK being on the same latitude (47 degrees, or thereabouts)?

So...is it raining? (It's been pouring down all day here.) I've been lucky. The two times I visited the weather was great but I've heard it can get pretty - and yes, that is, apparently, an understatement - wet.

Words

It's a beautiful autumn day in Seattle. No grey or rain! (yet). I lived in Edinburgh, Scotland for a year and can attest that the weather in the UK is similar. Edinburgh, however, was much windier, which made the winter months very cold.

cara

That is just wrong. I was in London for a weekend this summer and met... well, actually now that I say that I realize I met lots of butches and femmes but none of them were couples.

Guess you gotta get out more, or at least say hello when you see them.

London's a bit different. O/our nearest gay bar, or what used to be our nearest gay bar (it's now closed), was some 20 miles away, and when W/we did go there, it was fully of very young androgenous types with a few little baby butches thrown in for good measure so W/we kind of gave up on it even before it closed down.

You're right though, W/we do need to get out more, even if it means going over to Brighton or up to London. W/we're just a little limited because of my daughter, but hey, perhaps W/we'll give it a try next time she's at respite care. It's certainly something worth thinking about.

Hi!
 

Welcome from across the pond as they say. ;)

Oh I go to London on a semi-regular basis (I am currently in Prague) ... and I love it. Been to Brighton once, loved it too *grins*

Every time I have been to London, I have 'seen' Butches and/or Femmes, albeit have not met any past a brief hello; I am not usually there long enough ... or for pleasure ... so that will limit 'my' meeting them.

Perhaps next trip I will make a post here and if it works out, people in London or around London would consider meeting for coffee (or tea :D).

[QUOTE=Words;263]And hello back at you.:)

WELL YOU HAVE NOW - yup, found you at last...........:p:p:p

...so yeh, hi people, my partner of 8 yrs and i also live on the south east coast of England - Hastings to be precise - (as in battle of 1066)
Im sure this site will grow and as im a member of a uk site, will mention this on there.....................

Butch femme transguy uk
 

I mentioned this new site on the uk butch femme site and was pm'd that they have removed my post.................seems there isnt freedom of speech on there anymore - strange because others have written about butch femme rainbow and butchfemme.com but for some reason they seem to object to this one being mentioned..............???

Nice to see you again Andrew...it's been a long time!

Words:)

London's a bit far off Angelika but if you're ever in Brighton again, give U/us a shout, okay?

Best,

Words

At least you were able to sign up.

As W/we told you before, B/both of U/us have tried to sign up several times over over the past six months or so but for some reason, W/we've not been approved. More annoying is the fact that the Admin. doesn't even bother to respond to my notes about it.

Their loss;)

[quote=Jaques;1935]Damn Jacques, you ID as butch? LOL... I know you don't ID as femme.

[quote=Words;1966]Hey I id'd as male/tg................pauls joining btw............

Well hello there
 

Hello Jaques and LTNS Words...

Usually from the UK but taking care of ill in laws at the moment, How are you all

[quote=Jaques;1968]
I know, I was teasing. *Insert eye roll.*

Good news about Paul!

Paul!

How lovely to hear from you again. W/we've often asked about you and wondered how you're doing, and yes, W/we were aware of the fact that you're currently away.

Any chance of your coming back/for a visit soon? W/we would love to finally meet you.

Best to you and yours,

Words:)

Lovely to hear from you too Ms Jenny.... Will be back sometime in the new year fingers crossed.... of course you will meet us, we will be moving back to St Leonards... Hear you have met the old man GJ :D not a bad old stick on his good days ;) Say hi to Blue for me will you please Ma'am

Glad to hear that you're planning on coming back Paul. W/we're hoping to move within the next few months but W/we'll only be down the road so W/we'll definitely have to make a point of meeting up once you've had a chance to settle in.

And yes, W/we've met the 'old man' (you're brave aren't you?LOL) and his lovely lady. In fact, I'm looking at O/our birthday card from them right now. And I thought I was sick in the head;)

Words

Yes we have been planning to come back since we got here I do believe :D I know I have.... Absolutely we shall have to meet up after all this time... Oh the 'Old Man' hmm not much he can do he is too old now!!!!! :D You haven't seen anything re sick in the had... His lady is lovely, I sure do not know what happened to him though....

Hey GJ this is known as payback for all the times you put up my pics all over the internet.... Karma old man Karma :D:D;)

hello paul, ya old git................

Hello Jaques, old man..... :D

just bin got at agen by lb, offline of course, so have a look wot i wrote on tinsels thread...............:D

I saw it all, you are bad :D I went to answer your PM but you had been banned.... :eek:

this was the reason i was banned - quote

"You have been banned for the following reason:
The last straw calling LB a twat

Date the ban will be lifted: Never"

.........the fact that i didnt actually call LB that word, for which language i would have certainly been banned, though his wife wasnt when she used it, doesnt seem to matter - hy actually called me a t--t and i pointed out that i said what i did in jest, just as did his wife - however, it does appear theres one rule for me and another rule for the "in crowd"

I knew when i posted it i would be banned because hy has been sending me threatening emails/pms for a long time, telling me to leave and what hy would do it i didnt - yet i havent actually done anything - people are leaving because they are fed up with the dictatorial way they are running the site and those who remain are just scared to speak their minds or of course there are those who need the support and dont get it elsewhere - it makes the owners and their supporters feel superior - talk about power corrupting - trouble with people like that is in the end, they get left in a sinking ship...................i prefer to be where theres no prejudice against transguys, older people etc, which many felt there was on that site, rightly or wrongly. I know i experienced a lot of hostility from certain parties and for no apparent reason except maybe being in a stable relationship and not into public slanging matches..............which they seem to relish on there. Anyway I wont be losing sleep over it - bedtime.....zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

You rebel you.:)

I think you're right though. When I tried to sign up, I was asked to give a little info. so I told them a bit about U/us. And that, as they say, was it. When they didn't respond to my first attempt to sign up and my various notes with anything but a standard response about the activation queue or whatever I tried signing up under a different ID but no, still no joy, so I can only assume that they check IP addresses? Eventually, I called them on it and said that if there was a particular reason why they didn't want U/us on the site then would they at least have the decency to tell U/us what it was and that's when the 'correspondence' came to an abrupt end.

Anyway, sorry they treated you so badly. At the end of the day though it's their loss, not yours. Medusa and Jack are clearly passionate about making this place welcoming to everyone, - even us cranky, decrepit Brits;) - so I'm sure you'll be much happier here. And if you're not? Well, then it's your own bloody fault. LOL...

Hugs to you both,

J.

So come on, no other Brits around?

Non-Brits living in the UK?

Anyone?

...............ya know, im far from the rebel, on sites im polite, respectful and accept others points of view - most people enjoyed the banter they had with me - maybe that's the problem, all the attention has to be on the owners and their cronies, plus if you dont hold the same views as them they take it as a personal attack. I feel its good to hear things from others perspective, gives you something to think about and i keep an open mind, as you know with the discussions we have had..............as for being racist, misogonist, sexist - the list goes on of things i am accused of...............its absolute rubbish. There are people on that site who have used absolute foul language, been offensive, threatening, called people C---ts even, its disgraceful, yet they are told "calm down" ...............me, i dont even get a chance to answer back when they have a go at me, im just banned, for life this time.............to be truthful, i was only remaining on there because of their attitude towards me, over the last 6 mths the owners and their hangers on have become very unpopular with many people, so much so, the posts are getting less frequent.
Anyhow, now the Mullet's on here, i can carry on insulting hym, as hy expects me to - its just gotta be done...............
Lovely sunny day, the missus is still snoring :D

Words,

I will, thank you

Angelika

Well, when she wakes up, give her a big old hug from me, okay?

BTW...did you see the results last night? I can't believe the gruesome twosome got through again.

nope i just couldnt bear it...............:eek:

*Grins at Angelika*

Hey folks ... I'm not actually IN London or near it either (5 hours drive), but I do get up to London every now and then and if I'm staying there for a few days it is usually around the Crawley area.

Next time I'm going to be up that way for a few days, it would be great to meet up for coffee and a chat.

I'm in the South-west and the city I'm in has 1 gay bar that is for the most part for the gay males. However, there are usually a few baby butches there.

Welcome to the thread Aryon, it's nice to meet some fellow Brits on here. Who knows, we might one day be able to have a little butchfemmeplanet reunion of our own:)

Hey Jaques! *Waving from the other side of town*...
