                <description><![CDATA[It's a tiny little tea house tucked away off the beaten tourist track in the Hanover area of Brighton, run by a couple of young gay guys, with space for 16 guests seated. Kitch and as camp as they come! <br><br>The tea room is like stepping inside a memorabilia shop, like someone's front room, with an eclectic mixture of decor dedicated to the Royals, with Union Jacks ablaze, a grand piano and pictures of Diana adorning the walls. <br><br>The house rules are hilarious (not to be taken too seriously) ie no dunking of biscuits, no clanking of spoons when stirring your tea etc!<br><br>The menu is humorous, with items such as "The Duchies Cream Tea, Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth High Tea, The Lady Diana Spencer, Princess of Wales Afternoon Tea" and the unforgetable "The Julie Goodyear High Tea" (aka Corrie's Bet Lynch!) [you get the idea!)<br><br>It kind of epitomises Brighton's eclectic campness. Well worth a visit for a fun cream tea.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[In the last few months Brighton's gone from having two clubs you could go to on a Saturday night - Revenge and The Club @ Charles Street - to five; with the opening of V2 (formerly Storm), The Joint (popular with bears), and Monkey (from the team behind Wild Fruit). The Honey Club on the seafront is a very mixed and thus very Brighton house club. Tony Chapman, the former owner of Revenge is also opening a new club in September. Ironically for this seaside town, summer is the quietest period in queer clubland, and there are simply too many venues chasing a limited number of punters right now. Nights offering something a little bit different – i.e not funky house - are doing the best. Try the trash cabaret Dynamite Boogaloo at Audio on Thursdays, or the "homo electro punk disco", F*ck The Pain Away. And Brighton Pride on Saturday August 5th really is the best one in the country!]]></description>
