So this must be how Dave Duke felt last week getting up early to catch a special event I think to myself as I drag my still tired body out of bed prematurely early on my day off. In his case it was the Olympic Torch passing through his area, for me it is a quest, accompanied by Jimslim to find some or even one ladyboy, mostly likely from the Philippines at the Dublin Pride parade. I arrive at Dublin bus station just in time for the arrival of the Belfast bus, which is running a bit late, like myself. Three guys come charging through the arrivals door, one draped in a rainbow flag and hearing that distinctive North of Ireland accent and I know the slim man cannot be far behind. Sure enough there he is, the first time I have seen him since last November in Los. It's unusual to see him without Ciobha, there again one of the 3 fagaroonies who arrived a few moments earlier with the rainbow flag and headed straight to the toilet did look a tad like him. Could it be....... Jimslim and I both need to take a leak and so it is we gingerly head downstairs to the bogs, and can hear the giggling of the Ciobha clone and his mates as we approach. One of them is fixing a rainbow coloured mohican wig on in the mirror, while the others sort their appearances also before heading out on to the mean streets of The Fair City. I finish first and head out and wait for my companion, loitering outside a mens' toilet with all these gay guys milling around is not the something I usually do on Saturdays, honestly readers. Jim finally emerges and the quest begins.
