World AIDS Day 2005, Festive Frolics and early 2006

These pictures are of our World AIDS Day and Festive Frolics condom ministries in late 2005, including A Nightmare A'fore Christmas—a Gothic ball which allowed us to reach out to a number of the Gathered Faithful not normally found on the lesbian and gay scene, particularly those identifying as bisexual, transvestite and transexual. Also included is a picture of the blessing of the Cecil Sinclair Archive in early 2006.

Cecil Sinclair Archive blessing
Cecil Sinclair was an Edinburgh gay activist, and Lothian Gay and Lesbian Switchboard have named their new archive room in his honour.
The Convent
A group shot immediately prior to going out on Condom Ministry.
Novice Tara Ra Boom Diay
Probably in Planet Out, where we paused for refreshments.
The Three Muses
Sir Tys Major, Sister Athletica and Novice Tara.
Pastor Best
No real ale in Planet Out, but this is nearly as good.
Nightmare Afore Xmas
Nightmare A'fore Christmas: We had a stall and performed Condom Ministry at this goth ball. This picture shows Sister Athletica with organiser Sharon.
More Nightmare
Brother Bimbo, Sister Athletica and the stall.
Nightmare, and Totty.
Princess Gillian, Brother Bimbo, a really gorgeous chap from one of the bands and Sister Athletica.
Friends of the Order
AJ and Nicky, who look forward to us manifesting outwith licensed premises so they can volunteer their children into helping us.
Festive Frolics
Sister Athletica impersonates a Christmas tree for our yuletide Condom Ministry.
Sir Tys Major
In contemplative mood as the Ministry is complete and relaxation begins.
Pastor Best
Pastor Best demonstrates the effects of indulgence in the fine beer at the Regent.
Sir Cum Ference
Sir Cum Ference: You can bet that henchperson names beginning 'Sir Cum' are popular among our treasured helpers.
Holy commotion
“Blessed be this pint, that it bring pleasure to us all”. Brother Bimbo is a little more restrained with the tinsel.
Pastor Best, again.
A slightly more flattering shot, but only slightly,
Brother Bimbo and Henchcat Meep.
