The costumes are amazing. I particularly like the ones that look Victorian to me which I think are the ones they now call Steampunk.<br /><br />You are so good to sweet Rocky. Just wondering if you had wanted to stay at a B&B would he have been allowed or do most not permit pups? I can see that the YHA would not allow pups.Barbara M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06438114347870523265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-37746020004955747262015-04-26T13:28:18.477+01:002015-04-26T13:28:18.477+01:00Love the photos!

He is on medication from the vet, and has half a joint tablet daily which helps. We go for a walk around our village twice a day which he loves. I got the stroller from a car boot sale for £6, I don't use it here, but it means we can go further afield and have days out together, and I can do a bit of walking while pushing him.

What I love about gatherings like this is how accepting everyone is, it doesn't matter how you express yourself, it is who you are that counts and that's just great. Rocky looks very comfy in his photo.

The Goths looked great didn't they.You picked a good day, weatherwise.Last time we went to Whitby we went in the Seaman's Mission for a cuppa and a piece of homemade cake , to be served by 3 ladies all from Alvaston. They had all moved there and bought a little cottage each. They recognised my Derby accent they said.Caz.P.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11206843820602358144noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3556657999892839298.post-7846589761836204552015-04-25T20:52:20.679+01:002015-04-25T20:52:20.679+01:00Hi.Whitby looks stunning so much to feast the eyes...Hi.Whitby looks stunning so much to feast the eyes on,although there is no shortage of that in your beautiful country.Big sigh.Both my son and daughter dabbled in the Canadian goth/punk scene through high school,and all their friends.They were also very much into art, music poetry and strangely enough nature.The photos you've taken and info have transported me from a ho-hum day here to feeling quite perky again.Fabulous attire and creativity on many of the attendees.Thank you.Love the sailing ship.Hope you and Rocky sleep well and are warm enough,bye for now,D.Destemonanoreply@blogger.com
