Just chillin

Had an unusual weekend, went to The Big Chill with the Lost Vagueness crew and April. I was actually in my self imposed tranny exile but I had already agreed to come along to this do when I decide to take some time off. Twas an interesting time, arrived about 8 ish on Friday night and barely had time to get the tent up before the light went, so theres two trannies in a field in the dark doing makeup by torchlight, a challenge indeed. I think I did ok, then off to the festival for drinkies and dancing. Great place, I think we were the only trannies amongst thousands of people and of course we thrived on the attention but ugh, 4.30 finish, back to the campsite in the daylight, zzzzz

Saturday wander round in boy mode then change for the evening. I loved how cool the festival goers were, most hadn't met a tranny before but it was such a non event to them, whenever I got chatting to anyone I introduced myself as Gillian and that was it, I was Gillian, no judgement, no surprise, nothing. Except perhaps from Silver, I was shocked at the amount of kids there, and silver was one of them, she was actually a pretty cool little girl
'Why are you dressed as a girl?'
'Because it's fun'
'Is that a mask or a lot of make-up'
'how old are you babes?'
'Eleven'
'Eleven? really? how did you ever make it that far?'

actually she was quite cool, just interested and perhaps a bit too honest for my fragile tranny ego. talking of kids there was another kid related story that really tickled me. Walking to the festival I passed a family, two families maybe, but there were two little boys at the back, both in flouncy net skirts with angels wings on their backs, I thought it was brilliant, those kids thought nothing of being a bit girly, I think that bodes well for a future where you can be who you are without fear.

I also had some opinions challenged, I'd never really spent time amongst the festival goers before, but hanging about backstage they really impressed me, fun, playful, hardworking and strict when needed. The aforementioned Silver got a bit boisterous with a guy in an amazing outfit and landed a smack on him, one of the organisers took her aside and kindly but firmly gave her a good talking to about respect for others. I have to say I was very impressed, these alternative people were showing a damn site more attention to discipline than any number of muggle families with brats that you see down the supermarket.

Sunday was pretty special too. Got up as early as we could and got girled up straight away, just a daytime look, denim mini and strappy top, Oh wow how I've wanted to see what it's like to wear that sort of outfit on a summers day, and it were great!! not only fun to be daytime trannying amongst the hoardes but it's soooo much cooler than guy stuff. As an additional bonus I went a bit light on the suncream to make sure I got female tan lines, I just felt like doing something I couldn't hide. A good weekend.

Oh yeah and there was a documentary being made, I'm not in it as such, but I saw the camera on me a couple of times backstage, so who knows :).
