We're having a BLAST at Ely Pride and met so many people.
One person who touched our hearts, was a delightful couple.
He'd bought his girlfriend a bat dragon and he thanked us for the fact it had lifted her spirits.
She'd been experiencing life being horrible of late and this was the perfect thing to help.
The amount of Joy we bring is immense, to see how happy people are makes this all worthwhile.
We're here until 21.30.
