It’s a grand old place, steeped in history, with really friendly people, a decent little football club a belting cinema, wonderful pubs and restaurants, I could go on. But it needs a rainbow-coloured shot in the arm – and, 50 years after Stonewall – that’s exactly what it’s getting, with its first LGBT+ Pride event. HOORAH!
