I wish to share my exploration, understanding and interest of all things 'Steampunk'. I am a novice to this genre so, as I explore, you can come with me and also deepen your understanding. If you wish, you can guide and assist.

Whitby Gothic Weekend 22-25 April


Well, my dears, what a wonderful sojourn in glorious Whitby. I never tire of visiting this lovely seaside town but WGW was my first adventure into this wonderful festival of all things Gothic and Steampunk. 


The Bizarre Bazaar in the Pavilion Complex and Spa was packed with delights; particularly Engineers of Desire. Their inventiveness was truly inspiring. Bride and Gloom (what a wonderful name) had the most stunning costumes; worth divorcing and remarrying for!(His Lordship won't mind me saying that, I'm sure).


Steampunk found a home at the Rifle Club. More stalls and in the evening, admirable performances from talented artistes. Ghostfire particularly delighted one.


One did try to patronise as many industrious entrepreneurs as possible. Sadly, one's plastic only flexes so much.


October 28th-31st is the next opportunity to explore the delights of Whitby Gothic Weekend: perfect for Hallow E'en! Toodlepip X
