As DS Robertson says Same rules apply.
Its actually pretty difficult to get time off, i work a few hours every day and only get 3 days holiday a year. I had to get the guy who owns the business to cover for me when i went to Nottingham, which to fair he was more than happy to do.

Nice FILTH reference there, sir!  Love that movie!

I'm pretty sure that most people, when they see I've bumped this thread again have a little inward groan and think "Yeah allright love, you've said your bit, give it a rest now eh?" I do get that. I know I'm like a dog with a bone and if I was you I may very well feel the same way  ;D

Thing is, I don't do it to irritate you lot. In fact I don't really do it for you lot at all. I do it just in case someone who really really needs to hear It Gets Better happens to hear it here - the only soapbox I've got - and maybe just maybe that might help to stop this happening just once.

Another one of my Sisters didn't make it.

So tonight THAT candle has to burn again. Night Leelah, you were always beautiful x

But, like the man says, we keep singing:

I hope that none of these issues have happened to you Anna. You know that you have the full backing of everyone here and the rest of the nma family who aren't forum members

3 of those statistics do not apply to me Pol, guess I've been lucky. As the posts in this thread attest, there are some lovely people on this board. However the NMA fanbase is just as diverse as the societies it is drawn from and as such all attitudes are there. I've seen the finger pointing, nudges, laughing and heard the whispering at gigs. I'm long enough in the tooth to ignore it (or more likely nowadays to confront it) but how does anyone know that 6ft away from me there isn't a young person struggling to come to terms with themselves? What damage might that do?

Sadly though Anna that means 7 of them do. You don't need to me to tell you what I think.  myself and lots of others are proud to your friend and honoured to spend time in your company , any of the backstabbers and whispers are losing out due to their own small mindedness. Stand proud sister

Anna... just went back to your original post and it seems that it's not available on Youtube anymore..?

Might be interesting for the newbies on here..?

I'm sure I've brought this up before, but Keith Caputo from Life Of Agony... love that band in the 90's... now TG, not sure what stage he is at nowadays...

Original video, a true fave of mine...

Nice links - cheers my loves  :-*

Fixed that link in the op now MR

Been a big year personally and also it feels as if just maybe there has been a tiny bit of a cultural shift. I hope so  :).

The first 1m.35s of this (sound quality is crap for the song):
