Re: Over 50s Club Yorkshire

Doesn't the 'Goth Weekend' take place twice a year in Whitby?

It would be interesting to visit just to see the weird outfits, but I have to say that I wouldn't be interested in going to the pop music events.

We'd normally go to Whitby in the Summer, when the weather's nice, but I think you Goths go out of season.

Re: Over 50s Club Yorkshire

Were not Goths, we just like to be part of it

Yes it is on in April and November i think?

You get a lot of Steampunk people there as well, but that's something else..

Re: Over 50s Club Yorkshire

Yes, it's always around Halloween and again end April. It really is worth going once just to soak up the atmosphere but beware JBR, you may get hooked!

Re: Over 50s Club Yorkshire

Well I might try to persuade er indoors to go, then.

But what the hell is 'steampunk'?

Re: Over 50s Club Yorkshire

Do you remembert Jules Verne's " The Time Machine ". Well the machine was made up of copper.
Well Steampunk people dress in old copper tubes, clock parts and flying goggles with jodphur style trousers and brown clothing and knee length boots... Google them

Re: Over 50s Club Yorkshire

Hi all I think the snow is coming, we've had the odd small snowflake so far..

Re: Over 50s Club Yorkshire

I'm pleased you answered the question about steampunk Sue, I couldn't have done, even though I've seen plenty around in Whitby at the festivals.

It's been trying to snow here too!

Re: Over 50s Club Yorkshire

Good heavens!

Tessa likes Steampunk

Re: Over 50s Club Yorkshire

Perhaps Tessa will post a picture of her in her outfit?
