For March to November 2010 drinks (always the 3rd Sunday of the month), we will be meeting upstairs at ‘Suede’, which is at 284 Smith Street, Fitzroy. Drinks will be held from 3-5pm.
If you haven’t been before, look for the party hat on the table.
First timer and feeling a bit nervous? Send us a note at contact@butchfemmetrans.com and we’ll organise to meet you out the front of Suede. We are a very friendly and welcoming group – really!!
We are currently taking a summer break, but will be back in March 2010. Watch this space for more details.

Thanks to all who came along to the recent Christmas dinner. It was great seeing so many familiar faces and a couple of new ones.
Just a friendly reminder that we won’t be starting our monthly drinks until a little later in the year, due to Midsumma Madness being upon us very soon. When drinks do start up again, we are planning on trialing a new format, a Sunday afternoon event. If you know of a good queer-friendly venue in Fitzroy which is wheelchair accessible, please let us know!
