Hello to all,

Halloween is around the corner, and it is a great time to meet and go heeling around in the city!!!

It is a great time for us 1st timers because EVERYBODY is dressed up and is easier to 'blend' within, great to start building some confidence! For the ones that have been out longer, it is an excuse to drink and meet new friends!

Heels and/or any dressups is welcomed but not required!

The plan can be to meet and see the parade, followed by dinner & drinks. I think the parade is on the 31st in the village. We can meet around 7.00...just need a place to meet.

Any one interested?

Go for it guys. It would be a victory for self expression if the heel meet ups could start in other places around the world.

I'll second Firefox. Way to go, New Yorkers!

Cheerfully yours, Heelfan

I'm interested but need more specific information to firmly commit. I could probably show for at least a couple of hours.

One of you needs to name a meeting place. On our UK heel-meets, we usually name a coffee-house or bar where we can congregate, sit and have a drink and introduce ourselves before moving off for a walk around.

It might be unwise for you to name a bar right alongside some gathering or parade, because it would probably be far to busy. Maybe specify a place a block or two away that would be more quiet for the initial meet-up?

Good luck!

Cheerfully yours, Heelfan

Here is a suggestion I found on another board. Apparently, this restaurant caters to a very diverse crowd. East of Eighth at 254 W 23d. It's in Chelsea, which contrary to what others may say, is the current epicenter of Manhattan's "gay tolerant" scene. Because it's by eighth avenue, it's close to the 23rd street E,C station and midway between the Village and South midtown for easy commuting.

Any takers?

Someone please help me sending out pms! The hhplace pm server you can't send out pms so soon after your last.

Pam, heel'd, Gary, Kent, crotchiboots, mdol, hawksmoor, and missbunny have received pms.

Thanks
