pride2009 092For the uninitiated, Brighton is known as the Gay Capital of the UK and many of its backstreets are a riot of colour. A couple of years ago I posted pictures of some of its gaudy shops for Wordless Wednesday. If you missed them, they are right HERE!

    This is definitely the most creative post I’ve seen. I would ask how you created the colorful, multi-directional letters but I feel that should remain your secret.

    Haha! I think I know what to expect if ever I were in Brighton! Enjoyed this, Keith.

    Definitely the kitsch-est response to the prompt Keith, nothing better than taking a theme and running with it! 🙂

    Dear Keith,

    I love the riot of colors and loads of font. 😉 Love it.

    Shalom,

    Rochelle

    This is one of those rare occasions when I’m happy to be colour-blind!

    Wow! I was amused, bewildered with “colourful” words. I felt miffed at the “kitsch like it’s mum” part.
    I was like “What do you mean sir. Babies are always cute!” 🙄

    A very brilliant full piece of work for 69 words.

    If I recall my Literature in English lessons correctly, I think this prose falls into the satire or parody category.

      Thanks so much, I hope I didn’t bewilder you too much!

      I failed English Literature miserably which could explain a lot, but I guess you’re about right!
