HULL: The Gay Scene in 2023

[@thechatterguys]

Apologies, we had to upload this video again, as we missed putting a clip up, of us meeting the all important Chatter Gang. So enjoy again, if you've watched it already!

I want to thank you both for sharing your experiences and bringing more visibility to more mature LGBTQ+ people and couples. On Thursday I’m adding another year of my life, and as I’m living down in Oxford I have been wanting to go to places where ageism is not welcome, but friendships between people our age and the younger/older generations. I have a disability which has a way to limit my life. When I went to Oxford Pride I was told that I should come back at another time because there was no place for LGBTQ+ Community with disabilities. Being an older, single gay man with disabilities, living in a city where the two universities I know that I am never welcome to come in via their garden entrances, and I wear braces on my legs so I was hoping to get around, meet some people, making new friends and maybe even meeting someone special that could be my future husband. My disabilities should not be a barrier to feeling that I am a part of the LGBTQ+ community, especially when it comes to Pride celebrations. This year’s experience has left me feeling rather low and unwelcome, so I have decided to take the initiative and go to places where making new friends is met with warm and friendly new friends. I am hoping that I will be able to go up North and meet nice people like you two! You are both a breath of fresh air, and I hope that one day I will have the opportunity and pleasure of meeting you both and other people that would make me feel at home and welcome in our establishments. I’m also looking forward to seeing more content from the Chatter Guys!

Hi Gary! Thank you for your message. It breaks our heart to hear that you have been excluded from the LGBT+ community. Rest assured that there are plenty of places and people who will be glad to welcome you. We have several friends with disabilities and, of course, we're not in the first flush of youth ourselves, and there are tons of mature people in our community - you just have to find them. We love meeting our subscribers and hopefully we'll meet you one day. 🎈 Happy Birthday in advance 🎂 and thank you so much for watching and commenting on our video. Best love, Colin & Tim 💕💕💕

Did you know that propaganda and fuel management don't get along with the management of the star that's been like that for some years

[@thechatterguys]

We didn't know that, Mike, but it's not uncommon for LGBT+ venues to fall out with each other. We know of a few businesses that don't get along ☹️ xxx

[@daz3573]

Fuel and propaganda will never work along side other venues. It’s a shame because it could benefit everyone.

[@daz3573]

Also both venues are owned by the same ppl. They are well known for watering down drinks

[@thechatterguys]

We agree! We don't understand why some businesses don't see that to work together benefits then and the community 🌈

[@thechatterguys]

We think watering drinks down is quite a serious offence. They could lose their licence if that's what they're up to 😯

No Vaping or Smoking around ME- never smoked myself = (first hand) so deffo don't want it (second hand)

[@thechatterguys]

We agree 💯 Lord Martin. It's the #1 thing we dislike about Benidorm. Lots of smokers there 😞

[@splinterbyrd]

I'd no idea Hull had any gay people let alone a scene🤪🌈

[@thechatterguys]

Glad we could tell you something new, splinterbyrd! 🌈🌞👍

[@splinterbyrd]

@@thechatterguys Well I guess I'll just have to visit now 🙂

[@thechatterguys]

The people of Hull are lovely. Very friendly and up for a good time. You'll have a cracking visit! ⭐⭐⭐

[@christopherroberts7428]

Quick and dirty guide 😂

[@thechatterguys]

😆😆😆 Cheers Christopher!! 🎈

[@davidhodgson4695]

I cannot stand vape or cig smoke. Go outside if you want vape or smoke.

[@thechatterguys]

We agree 💯. We have really cut down the times that we visit our favourite bar 🍺 because they allow vaping inside. 😝

[@mikejohnson9587]

And fuel was all gay for some time no door staff then they had the arrival of the straight women that attracted straight me this had friction between gay men and straight men then door staff arrived fuel propaganda and star don't close until 6am

[@thechatterguys]

Cheers Mike. It's sad that we can't all just get along together. After all, we go out to have a good time, not to be causing trouble 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫
