What we’re about
We are a group mainly for gay and bisexual men looking to make friends and expand our social lives and interests in the Bristol area. We are accepting and welcoming of other orientations and identities, but whatever our differences the thing we all have in common is: we identify as men and are attracted to men.
As a group we value and encourage respect, tolerance, kindness and understanding and as such we do not tolerate unkind behaviour towards each other or behaviour which condones intolerance.

- Photo exhibition 'Now Keep Quite Still'@thewell Cafe Laundrette, Bristol
Bristol photographer Herbert Shergold took Hollywood-esque portrait photos in the 1950s and 1960s using glass negatives, a practice that had fallen out of popularity since the 1920s. Most of his sitters were local residents, however Shergold was gay and some of the men posed semi-clad while others wore feminine clothing and makeup, likely seeing a space where they could be themselves.
A small exhibition titled Now Keep Quite Still is running at The Launderette, 145 Cheltenham Road, Cotham.
