“MERRY CHRISTMAS” As you get set for just about everyone’s favourite time of the year, a time to spend with family and friends, it’s the time we go mad and max out our credit cards, put on weight from eating Mums home cooked Turkey instead of take out, as you get set to pack your bags for your well deserved holiday, we at one80news set you one little Christmas task.

Pay it forward, buy someone you don’t know a small gift and take it to one of the local HIV centres, or homeless shelters. Buy a few extra cans of food and drop off at the local hospices, or throw those small coins you get back in change at the bar into the charity tin and spread the joy.

Christmas is a time to share and give, and even a smile or a thank you to the stressed out cashiers in the high streets and local supermarkets, would go a long way.

A Merry Christmas wish to the neighbour you have never met, leave a bottle of wine out for the local Postman, or the milkman or even dustbin man, a little thanks goes a log way. From all of us at one80 news we just want to say thank you to our readers and next year we will be back with a great new look.

Merry Christmas.

We would like to thank all the contestants and their supporters for a fantastic past few months. The journey is far from over as we set out and have our Christmas Break, celebrate the New Year and get ready for the Semi-finals in January.

We have had many different comments come through to us about Queer As Talent, I think for the most though it is from people that perhaps have no interest in the LGBT community, yet they are happy to sit at home and watch the X Factor and Britains Got Talent. Fantastic shows, I love them but what we are trying to do with Queer As Talent is let members of our community be themselves and share their talent with their Gay and Lesbian Brothers and Sisters.

We appreciate that maybe the publicity is overwhelming at times, but we don’t have the advertising budgets XFactor have, we do however have two voices. 3sixty magazine and one80 news and we will use these voices to get the message out to our community that there are some kids

out there with some fantastic talent and they need your support.

The semi finals start around the country on January 12th, with huge shows and strong performers, all wanting a place in the Grand finals.

All we ask is to take a few hours out of your week and come and watch the shows.

Male and Female vocalists. So give it a thought and come and see us next year.

Just see the excitement in the voices of the contestants, and the amazing strength they have. Many have never performed in front of huge crowds and this contest is not only giving them experience but also bringing them out of the closet, so to speak.

The team from Queer As Talent., Tony V , Graeme, Claudia, Ms Jason, Michael, Derek, and Peter.

We have a variety of performers, in London, Bristol, Southampton, Brighton and Liverpool, from Comedy acts to Drag Artists Gay Bands,

For highlights of the show

For now we want to wish our readers and contestants and host venues a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, stay safe and be happy.

A very special thank you to our guest judges, Jo Francis and Q Boy.

WORLD AIDS DAY THE WAY WE REMEMBERED

Vigils and Events around the UK.

Up and down the country the December 1st marked world AIDS day and people around the UK marked the day from vigils to remember friends, family and partners who are living with HIV or have passed away. Bars and pubs hosted world AIDS day events in order to raise funds for what is still a much needed cause.

In Manchester people gathered in Sackville Park, in the city centre, from 7pm on Tuesday, December 1, to mark the international day of HIV and AIDS awareness.

The town hall displayed a large red ribbon and an information stall at the Christmas markets will be offering advice and guidance over the weekend.

Manchester’s deputy leader Councillor

Val Stevens said: “The vigil is a chance to reflect on those we have lost and to celebrate the lives of those who are living with HIV and Aids.”

In other parts of the country, bars and pubs hosted events in order to raise the awareness of HIV and AIDS and held collections and events to raise money for much needed HIV and AIDS related charities.

In London the Ku-Bar held a charity auction where selected bar-boys were auctioned off to raise funds for the charity Food Chain which supplies healthy meals to those living with HIV. The event which was hosted by Boogaloo Stu was a roaring success.

In the Thames Valley, bars such as The Malthouse and The Wynford Arms ran collections during their weekend events for world AIDS day and The Wynford Arms is

ran a week long collection campaign for the worthy cause.

Other events included a HIV / ADIS sponsored run across Oxford where a team of runners were sponsored to run around the university city streets and a sponsored dinner as well, with public speakers and talks about HIV and AIDS – promoting a range of causes relating to world AIDS day.

Further North in Scotland vigils ran across Edinburgh and Glasgow with remembrance events and street collections handing out ribbons to information on HIV and AIDS. With Scottish NHS also pushing for further outreach testing for HIV and local city bars and clubs having more information on HIV available to the wider community.

Crusade the HIV and AIDS charity ran their Think, Talk, Act, Give campaign –which is another campaign to raise the awareness

of HIV in the community. Their campaign; which is celebrity fronted aims to raise the awareness and push forward the message that we should not be afraid to talk about it because it is very real and still exists.

HIV has affected near all of us as we all know someone who has HIV or has passed away from an AIDS related illness and it is a time of remembrance for those who have left us but also a time to promote the work of the numerous organisations up and down the country providing aid in the UK and those providing services for those suffering abroad.

A big thank you to all the venues so many that held events in their venues, and our love and thoughts go out to those that are living with HIV or have lost someone to HIV AIDS. Remember you are not on your own see our help line contacts in the scene section for your local support group.

CAMERONPROMISES SUPPORT EQUALITY IN MS JASONS CIVIL THAI’S 4 LIFE PARTNERSHIPS The leader of the Tory party David Cameron announced that if the conservative party win the next general election that he would synchronise the rights of couples in Civil Partnerships. The Civil Partnerships Act, which came into force in 2005, gave gay couples all the rights of marriage. These has been a strong inclination within recent years by the Conservative Party to embrace LGBT issues, the question which begs to be asked is if they do win the next election, how far will those promises extend.

GAY RAPE A man is currently on trial at Woolwich crown court for sexual assaults on gay men in London. Mohamad Caid, 38, from Deptford, was charged in June with one rape, two attempted rapes, sexual assault and false imprisonment and was remanded in custody. At the time, police appealed for other victims to come forward after two men reported being sexually assaulted after leaving Heaven nightclub in Villiers Street. The alleged attacks took place in an illegal minicab.

Caid is pleading not guilty. The case continues.

NEW MODERATOR FOR BRIGHTON PRIDE Chris Gull a former chairman of Brighton Cares and a prominent local businessman has been nominated to take on the independent moderator role to help develop the business and community forums to work with Pride in Brighton and Hove.

The concept for the forums was put forward at last week’s public meeting and suggested as a constructive means of involving the local LGBT business and community sectors to help deliver a successful Pride in 2010.

Chris Gull’s name has been suggested by a number of people across the community as the ideal candidate to take on this important role. His credentials not only include a successful business career, but also a long involvement in the voluntary and community sectors.

Miss Jason has been campaigning for this most worthy of causes, through charity fundraising shows and personally and here is a little bit about this charity, which strongly needs your help and support.

Baan Jing Jai Orphanage in Soi Neung Pleub Wan (Thailand) is in desperate need of some of the most essentials for basic survival, which includes bedding, rice and a variety of other foods in order to continue the service that they provide for orphaned children. Other things that are desperately needed are basic school essentials such as pens, pencils paper and other drawing materials, which are all needed to ensure that these young children have a head start in life which so many have had cruelly snatched away.

Thais4life is an organisation, which provides much needed funds through a variety of activities to raise money for orphanages. Their work that includes selling books in a charity bookshop. This basic medium for generating funds for Thais4Life, and providing considerable exposure, is the Thais4Life Bookshop, and your support for the bookshop would be gratefully appreciated. It has been called “The Best Bookshop in Pattaya”, and carries over 20,000 titles in 16 different languages. Donations of books are always gratefully accepted, and you can buy a book for only 80 baht - all books are priced at 80 baht - and you can also exchange any books that have been bought from the Thais4Life Bookshop for just 40 baht.

This is a lifeline of support to the Bang Jing Jai Orphanage, these children are not given the chance to go onto a fulfilling future without their help and Miss Jason has campaigned widely to bring forth this cause to us. From mentions in her shows to running charity events to raise money for Thais4Life has been an ongoing mission of hers. For Miss Jason to continue her good work she needs your help. Anything you can give or help out is incredibly appreciated. These children do not have the luxury that many of us has grown up with, in fact many struggle to have the basic needs for survival, so the work Thais4Life and Miss Jason in campaigning do, literally can change lives.

So please visit thais4life.com and get involved. Donate; spread the word – whatever you can do, as they really need your help. Lets help Miss Jason with her campaign. Be part of changing someone’s life.

New Mental Line On 1 December 2009, Sussex Partnership NHS Foundation Trust launched a brand new Mental Health line for people in East Sussex and Brighton and Hove.

The new service is in operation between 5pm and 9am and 24 hours a day During weekends and bank holidays and provides out-of-hours mental health advice and support to anyone living or working in Sussex.

The Mental Health line can be reached in East Sussex and Brighton and Hove between 5pm and 9am and all day during weekends and bank holidays, on 0300 5000 101.

Brighton Hospital Hospital managers have called in a team of specialist financial experts to help them save up to £50 million over two years.

Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals NHS Trust will be working with PriceWaterhouseCoopers over the coming weeks as it prepares to face a widely expected drop in funding next year. This comes despite hospitals continuing to deal with more patients than ever before and a potential outbreak of swine flu.

In a message to staff, trust chief executive Duncan Selbie insisted the review was not about job losses or cuts in services.

He said: “Providing the highest quality care within the means available has never been easy and it is about to get tougher.

“We have started an intensive piece of work with PriceWaterhouseCoopers to search for ideas and opportunities that balance the need to find savings without compromising quality and safety.

“To be clear this is not a prelude to a redundancy programme or the like. Far from it.

“It is about planning ahead and behaving and acting in a financially responsible way given the wider economic circumstances facing the UK.”

Amazing Fund-raiser Pride in Brighton & Hove is delighted to present this unique, one-off, alternative Christmas Party Fund-raiser. On the 16th of December for one night only Charles Street will be transformed into a Winter Wonderland as the Pride in Brighton & Hove Christmas Party fund-raiser kicks off the Christmas festivities!

For just £25, revellers will enjoy a Champagne Reception, a 3 Course Christmas Meal, a full night of fantastic entertainment and even get the chance to sit on Santa’s.... knee?

Whoever said that Christmas is a “time of goodwill to all men” will then be proved sadly wrong as battle commences with the ‘Doc’s v Frocks’ spectacular, hosted

by Nicky Mitchell for the Docs and Lady James for the Frocks.

Nicky Mitchell will lead the Women’s performers into battle with Lady James’ Drag Artists. All performers will get to showcase their unique talents but who

will get to play a full set? YOU DECIDE! Artists will be touting for your votes on the night and every vote counts!! Make sure you are there to support your favourite and make sure they come out triumphant.

On Wednesday 16th December Doors and champagne reception at 6.30pm with the acts starting from 7pm £25 per person (£11.81 from each ticket goes directly to Pride in Brighton & Hove).

Standing tickets can be purchased for £10 on the night from 7pm. This is a night not to be missed. Call Tel: 01273 775939 or visit brightonpride.org

one80Arts Estee Applaudher This week we pay tribute to Michael Joyce aka Estee Applaudher.

It came as a total shock to us that after our recent story on Estee and her debut film the Cost Of Love, Estee was killed in a car accident whilst visiting his family for Christmas in Australia.

Michael was based in Greenwich, at the Rose and Crown one of South East London’s popular gay spots.

Michael hosted the weekly game shows and entertained guests on stage in the local SE London Bars. For the Management and staff of the Rose and Crown it is a deep loss not only of work colleague but also a house mate as Michael lived on the premises.

Tributes have been coming into one 80news and also the Rose have a book of messages they are collecting to send over to the family.

Carl Medlands producer of the movie Cost of Love has been in touch with Michael’s family as well as one80news and is planning a tribute screening of the film once it comes out, which is around March 2010.

Carl also mentioned to us that the film was going to propel Michael into acting.

He continues by saying I really owe him for making this film a success. His special message follows!

Dear Michael , All the cast and crew dearly miss you we are dedicating “ The Cost of Love “ film as a tribute to your memory . You are and always will be a glittering star.

which is to raise money for the Metro centre.

Michael also was there for one80news fundraiser for the London Orca Swim team, just to mention a couple. His greatest support was for Save The Children.

He moved to London from Australia 8 years ago he worked as a nursery teacher in a local school. He has also pursued his acting career playing small parts in the hit TV series Holby City and Family Affair.

Although there was a serious side to his acting , he just loved entertaining.

All in all Michael was just a fantastic guy, with a wonderful heart and soul. He will be deeply missed by all. The Rose and Crown have also mentioned that in the New year they will host a special tribute night for Michael.

Other friends have left messages , sadly missed, never forgotten, Ryan, Mark & Mike Hunt. Wednesday night quiz team.

Michaels was dedicated to life and had a great involvement in charities, he would always be there to volunteer to host any show, he played a huge part in the Greenwich Annual Drag Race,

ESTEE 1969 - 2009

one80entertainment/arts reviews Christmas With Elvis ‘Christmas with Elvis’ is a brand new touring show that combines the music of the world’s greatest performer with the special magic of the Yuletide season. It features Mario Kombou (voted ‘The Best Elvis Performer in the World’ in 2005), who starred as Presley in ‘Jailhouse Rock The Musical’, which ran for almost two years at London’s Piccadilly Theatre. Now listed in the ‘Hall of Fame’ at the Elvis Presley Estate, Mario has appeared on national television on many occasions as in 2006 he performed on Top Of The Pops singing the UK’s 1000th number one single in chart history - Elvis Presley’s ‘One Night’.

Mario is supported by a great cast of top singers, actors and musicians who have appeared in many West End shows including Buddy, Les Miserables, Starlight Express, Return To The Forbidden Planet, Blood Brothers and Jailhouse Rock The Musical.

‘Christmas with Elvis’ will feature the additional special feature of guest performances from three musical legends – Buddy Holly, Marilyn Monroe and Roy Orbison. Each of these greats will perform their own solo spots during the show, as well as interacting with Elvis himself.

Mario and company deliver an outstanding two hour show capturing the musical life and career of a legend and featuring over 40 Elvis favourites telling the complete story of Elvis Presley from the early Rock and Roll days of ‘That’s Alright Mama’ through the Movie era including GI Blues, onto the legendary ‘68 Comeback Special’ and culminating in Elvis’s Vegas years.

It also takes material from the two Elvis Christmas albums that book ended his career, including such classics as ‘Santa Claus Is Back In Town’, ‘Blue Christmas’ and ‘Merry Christmas Baby’.

The Treason Show This is a must see BAFTA nominated show that you can not miss this Christmas season, especially if you like that cutting wit style shows based on the headlines of the day.

The slick and irreverent satirical sketch show, based on the news and current affairs. Formerly hosted at Komedia, The Treason Show is now a touring based production with an International version based in Berlin.

Written by a team of over 40 writers and performed by a team of multi-talented satirical sketch performers The Treason Show continues to wow it’s audiences with a fast moving gag-a-minute sketch show that

since it’s debut in June 2000 has become a Brighton institution.

This incredibly funny show isn’t around for long, so you have to be quick with it and get your tickets to avoid disappointment, but it is a show that can not be missed, especially after its success at Komedia.

Generous Following sell-out six performances at the Finborough Theatre in August 2009, the European premiere of Generous – winner of the Dora Mavor Moore Award (Canada’s leading theatre awards) for Best New Play 2007 – returns to the Finborough Theatre to open its 30th anniversary year.

What happens when someone is overwhelmed with the desire to help?

A minority government is on the verge of collapse; a ruthless oil executive tells the truth to a reporter; an effusive young law clerk engages in an excruciating post-coital chat with an aging judge; and a spectacular battle wages over a bucket of fried chicken. Through four interconnected stories, Michael Healey questions the idea of the selfless act. Politicallycharged, sharply-written and hilarious, Generous is a tour-de-force from one of Canada’s most successful playwrights.

Generous lives up to its title. It’s generous in the social and emotional ground it covers, in the quality and quantity of barbed laughter it provokes, in both the sharpness and compassion of its insights into relationships, and in the spirit that animates all these.’’ National Post This is the play’s European premiere and it fits the venue’s intimate stage nicely, adding a certain intensity that makes for compelling drama – a welcome London debut for Healey…Energetically staged” Elizabeth Fitzherbert, WhatsOnStage “Michael Healey’s clever and witty play provides a thought-provoking look at the moral complexities of trying to “do good…Healey’s dialogue crackles with both humour and tension” Elizabeth Fitzherbert, WhatsOnStage To book tickets visit: finboroughtheatre.co.uk or call Box Office 0844 847 1652

This week we ask two of our semi finalists from Queer As Talent to tell us what the contest has done for them.

SEMI FINALS JANUARY and you are invited.

To book your tickets call 0845 5191360

“Queer as Talent is the first competition that I have entered simply because I’ve never liked the competitive element of them. I’ve always thought that I’m either too old, or I don’t have the right look or my voice isn’t good enough but there was something about QAT that was different - quite simply it’s created and led in the LGBT community. I’ve been singing for as long as I can remember and I love performing and entertaining for all types of audiences, so after talking to my some of my close friends, I made the decision to enter.

to Tony V to see if he had the tissues out, the place was silent and then out the tears flowed, he is a guy with an incredible heart, we have named Teary Tony, nothing like Simon. lol He spoke from his heart reminding us all what this competition is all about, and then called me over for a big hug, it wa a nice feeling.

Seeing some of the other acts from other participating cities on You Tube has shown what truly talented people we have in the LGBT community ... basically we rock!

I’m proud to be in this competition, I’m made up to have reached the semi finals and I hope that for those that thought about entering this year and didn’t for whatever reason, will definitely give it a go next year. This is a great experience and an opportunity not to be missed.

The one thing that has blown me away is the support that I have received since entering the competition.

This was probably one of the best decisions I have made, quite simply because it has given me more self belief, confidence and I have met some great people.

I can remember the first audition, the judges were great and I sat down with Tony V and had a heart to heart with him, it was funny though he comes across as a little tough but every time someone sings a ballad out come the tissues, but there was a big smile as I did a big rock number.

All the Bristol contestants have been so supportive of each other because we all understand what we are all going through. We all want to put on the best show we can and believe me we have.

The one thing that has blown me away is the support that I have received since entering the competition.

My girlfriend and Sister have been amazing and friends from the Pineapple Bar together with my straight friends have given me loads of encouragement and I thank them all so much.

At the last heat, the Queen Shilling was full with friends and family from both the gay and straight community which gave a brilliant atmosphere! Having the opportunity to sing in front of experienced and talented judges in their own right has not only added to the nerves but has allowed me to receive positive and honest feedback.

I sang Feeling Good, which I think surprised the judges after my initial audition, at the end of my performance, Claudia, Ms Jason and Jo Francis gave their comments I looked over

one80head2head Adam Marks Semi finalist Well where do I start, I feel like a retired race horse who has come back for one last run at the Grand national. (lol) I have entered a talent shows such as Star for a night BBC1 and Xfactor (boot camp 2009) but Queer as Talent has given me the boost I needed to pick my confidence back up and start to believe in myself again.

I think the concept of the competition is fantastic and that coming from someone who has never been a active member of the Gay community mainly because since I been out which was when I was 22 I have been in relationship everyday and also due to work and relationships I never done the scene.

The thought of performing in front of the gay community was frightened me thinking they like to see comedy Drag and young lads with pecs, but how wrong I was !

I have performed in a few venues in London and I mean only a few I have loved the shows and maybe its because I can be myself, as I class myself as straight acting normal guy who happens to be gay, but for someone who sang many songs

by Bassey and female artists I know that Queer as talent can open a brand new window for me , it certainly has given me the bug to want to continue and if things go to plan fly the flag around UK for Queer as talent and give something back to the LGBT and bring awareness to others it’s not about sexual orientation or colour but about talent and there’s a lot out there ,especially in the LGBT community .

don’t think people realise how much talent there is in the community. I was so impressed with the talent in Lewisham for the last round, totally mixed from the young 22 year old performers to the nearly 40 like myself and I really thought my road to get my career and life back on track would end that night.

I am so looking forward to the semi-finals, for me its a personal challenge as well as I want to prove to myself I can perform with the best of them and at 38 there is plenty more to come. I have always been very driven and professional at any level of entertaining. I would like to move into producing and helping young performers with advice and share my experience for them to achieve their dreams and work in the entertainment industry, I see Queer As Talent as a fantastic platform to do this.

I really hope whatever happens this year it is a concept that will run for years and get bigger and bigger and I how proud I would be to be the first winner of Queer as Talent. I would even like to work with the team in future to get out there and make this first year one they will remember and get the exposure so future years will be The Biggest and Best competition in the LGBT community.

I class myself as straight acting normal guy who happens to be gay ...

I have always respected everyone who works so hard for the LGBT and I

Now with a spoon work around the edge of the skin and avocado and remove the flesh, it should come out in one piece, do this with both halves, now slice each half into strips and place back into the shell, fanned out. You did keep the shells. Now sit the avocado on a bed of lettuce and then sit three prawns unpeeled in each shell. Sit the remaining six prawns in a small bowl of pasta mixed with Italian dressing.

Looks great, easy to serve, now don’t forget to give everyone a hot fi ngerbowl of water and lemon, to wash their hands and a side pate for the shell.

Method You can either pan fry if your cooking for one or two people or you can bake so I will give you both methods here. If the fish is whole like snapper you may want to stuff it so I will give you that method as well, snapper is best baked.

Pan fry Lightly grease pan with olive oil, place your fillets in and fry each side quickly on a low heat for a minute to seal, then immediately squeeze lemon juice all over the fish and pour about half a glass of white wine in, this should be quite liquidly and in fact it is a little like poaching.

In the same pan add a slice of lemon, tomato and ring of pepper per person in the pan, so they cook at the same time and crack some black pepper over the lot.

Fish does not take long to cook, the Japanese eat it raw after all and should be turned once or twice during cooking, do not let the juice dry right up and once the flesh is cooked though then it is ready to serve.

Have your salad plate made place the fish along side, use an egg lifter to lift not tongs as the fish will break up, place the lemon slice, tomato and pepper in a stack on the filet, place the oysters to the side of salad and place one king prawn on the fish and one on the salad and finally a lemon wedge on the side.

Baking Now this method works with all the fish, you will need some lengths of foil one per fillet. Lay the foil on the table and grease with some butter or margarine, place your fish fillet in the center, add a lemon slice a slice of tomato and a pepper ring in a stack on top of the fillet now lift the sides of the foil to make a cup either side as you are now gong to pour the lemon juice and white wine over the fish, you don’t want it going everywhere; you then need to wrap the fish like a parcel.

Using a baking dish greased with butter place the parcels in the baking dish and bake in the oven on temperature of about 180 for about 30 minutes, serves as above leaving in the foil.

Snapper or any whole fish, best baked using the method above the only difference is to stuff the fish with the lemon, tomato and pepper and crack the pepper over the fish, wrap it and bake it the same, it may take 40 minutes to cook.

Happy fishing!

MEET BRISTOL’S IDENTICAL TWINS WHICH ONE IS GAY ?

James and Damian are identical in appearance but both have different sexual preferences. This is quite unusual in identical twins. It is much more likely that both share the same sexual orientation.

About 52% of male identical twins are gay and in non identical twins the chances are less at 22%. These odds are much higher in twins, compared to the average non-twin. This has lead to a lot of studies involving twins and sexual orientation.

Tony V catches up with the twins for double trouble.

T) What do your close friends think about you guys and do they think your competitive?

J). Many people think that we both have different sexual orientation due to the fact that neither of us want to compete with one another. This is generally true in most aspects of our lives. From a very early age I followed an artistic path and Damian was always the mathematical one. In truth, we are both as talented as each other in art and maths.

T). Hi guys, so who is the oldest.

T) So what career paths have you taken ?

J.) Damian was born 5 minutes before me, and we were born the heaviest twins in Gloucestershire.

J). I followed a career in landscape architecture and I am also artist in my spare time and Damian is a financial controller for a large engineering firm, but also manages the accounts for several gay venues in Bristol.

T).It is hard to tell you guys apart!

D). We were so alike that no one, except our mother, could tell us apart until we reached our twenties. This lead to a lot of confused teachers at school who eventually put us in separate classes so they could tell the difference between us

T) Do you have close encounters with each others minds ?

D) People often ask if we have ever experienced anything unusual whilst apart. If one of us is hurt does the other feel it?

We haven’t experienced that but when we were younger we could sense when the other twin was sad or happy.

One of the many great aspects of being a twin is how close we are. We have exactly the same memories and shared experiences; it’s like having another me as back up.”

T. Damian your straight and James your Gay! D.) We go against both the nature and nurture theories as to why one twin is gay and the other is straight.

We were both born from the same egg, meaning that our genetics (nature) should not be the reason James is gay. Our upbringing (nurture) should also be ruled out as we were both brought up in exactly the same way.

T.) Are there any other members of the family gay?

J) Our older sister and uncle are also gay, so being gay is common in our family. This made it a lot easier for me to come out to them all. I love having a twin brother and Damian has been the most accepting and supportive brother I could wish for.

When I came out to him and the family at 19 years old, he not only accepted my lifestyle, he was happy to join me on the gay scene. So much so that he quite happily spends most of his nights out on the gay scene with our friends and his wife.

T) Damien so your married right, where did you meet?

D.) I met my wife in a gay bar and most of our wedding party was made up of our gay friends. I prefer the relaxed atmosphere and great music in gay venues. I am totally comfortable with gay men any advances my way I would send on to my brother.

This has worked well in the past, as when women hit on James he would send them my way, we call it double pulling! ”

T) Can people tell which one of you is gay and which is straight?

J) Ironically people say that Damian is the ‘camp’ one and I’m the butch one out of the two of us, which I find hilarious” D). It must have something to do with my great dress sense!

T) I hear you guys have your own language you speak?

J) Up until the age of 4 we developed our own ‘twin speak’ language, which had no similarity to any other language T) So what do you guys think about being on the cover of 3sixty magazine D & J ) That would be great

JEAN FESSEY

MIKE & COLIN

We asked Jean the question, So why Queer As Talent” I have always been writing songs and for years only ever played to friends and family. I was encouraged to try out as I wanted to see the wider reaction to my songs. Queer As Talent gives me that chance. I grew up with no role models so I think this gets us out the way.

Colin and Mike were in a choir together and decided to do something away from the choir and go out as a team.

We worked really well together and decided to do something newwhich led to and entering the contest., We are different from the other contestants and acts so that’s a really good start for us. We are a great support for each other. We love the competition and what it stands for.

ERICA THORTON This competition means a lot to me. I love what I do and I love to be able to be a part of something that is a part of my community.

CHRIS BEHAN Chris has always been a very keen musician, but traditionally always been a instrumentalist, but then discovered his voice about two years ago. He then moved on to develop his vocals from there. His boyfriend is his greatest supporter and together they decided Chris should enter the contest. I am looking forward to performing at the church and showing Brighton my talent.

I am over the nervous part, my first auditions and then was delighted to get through to the semi finals.

I will put 100% of me into the contest and just hope that I am chosen to go through to the finals in london.

We are performing in a fantastic venue at St Andrews, I am looking forward to going back there and putting on the performance of my life.

JASON HOWLETT I have been out of the country for eleven years and living in Spain doing a sort of apprenticeship in entertainment and I wanted to come back to the UK . I moved back with my boyfriend of seven years. I read about Queer As Talent in one80 news and decided to enter. I have always wanted to be in entertaining and what better way to do it then in our community, and what a way to come in with 3 sixty as a launch pad.

JOE Proud Joe, gave the audience her all, at the 2nd round and finally has discovered a way of expressing his feelings. Joe is in his tansitional stage of life.

I am feeling very happy at getting this far, and am really excited about getting into the semi finals, as its been something that I have always wanted to do. It is very hard getting up there on stage when you are unsure of yourself, but my motto in life is you cant help how you feel, no one can stop you from being who you are and what you want to be in life.

RUTHIE T We asked Ruthie,What her thoughts on Queer As Talent so far?

I have never been in a competition or wanted to but there was something that I wanted to try and perform and see people smiling – My friends and family said “Ruth have a go at this.” And I think I was one of the first to apply. Friends and family and my girlfriend have all been a real support. I am very grateful and nervous as well – but it’s a lot of fun. The support is great and enjoying it immensely.

AMY EVANS CHRIS DYER Everone loves Chris and we asked Chris what made him enter the Queer As Talent.

LOUI Both Loui and his partner entered the contest , alas only Loui made it through to the semi finals, and his partner still has a choice to make it through on the peoples choice vote. We caught up with Loui and he said that so far, It has been really exciting, and I am really pleased getting into the semi-finals. The next stage is the anticipation. My partner Ben has been an amazing support to me and it has been wonderful so far.

I was told about the competition by friends, they then strongly encouraged me to go for it. All my friends and family had always wanted me to go on one, but until now I hadn’t had the chance. So I thought to myself why not. I have had a lot of support such as Mark my flat mate, family and friends have all been there for me all the way.

Who has inspired you to sing?

Basically since I can remember I have been singing but this is my first competition and the most people I has ever sung in front of. I heard about it through a friend and turned up on the day and then realised what it was all about and am really loving it.

I love the family spirit and the uptakes from the judges, it’s always good to hear the good vibes.

2nd heat was an absolute buzz and I am proud to be through to the semi-finals.

one80 new business profile Spanish Love comes to Brighton One80news is always looking for working with local businesses around the UK, so this week we have added our new section on new business profile. This week we introduce Aguadulce a new Spanish restaurant that opened its doors last week in Brighton.

Shop Front 10/11 Kings Rd Brighton Shop

Carlos and Olga

Headed up by husband and wife team Carlos and Olga Dinapoli, the couple moved back to Brighton after living in Spain for 18 years and with a passion for their culture and of course food they decided to return to the UK and share their joy of the tapas.

The historry of the Tapa was set back when King Alfonso X known as the wise one set out in the Castillian Bars there was no wine to be served unless it was accompanied by some type of food. This was to avoid the wine going straight to your head.

To begin with the tapa would be placed on top of the glass which would cover it (Tapa means to cover) Bar Aguadulce will offer a selection of Tapas in the bar area when your order a lager or a glass of wine or a spritzer this is offered at the discretion of the staff however small tapas dishes can also be purchased with other beverages at £1.80 per tapa and of course they are offered at a per drink basis.

Moving into the restaurant though Chef Olga offers a superb selection of Spanish cuisine as Raciones (Larger tapas) or you can try our seafood or meat dishes.

The seafood is delivered in fresh and can be seen on display cool bayes which is nice to see. Olga is very particular with her daily selections.

Opening Party (paintings on wall by Olga)

CHRISTMAS MENU 2009 AGUADULCE ARE OFFERING TWO GREAT MENUS FOR CHRISTMAS Set menu for 4 including a Starter, Main and Dessert plus a coffee and a bottle of house wine (minimum 4 persons) Fresh Seafood Bayne

You will find the menu to be quite reasonable in price and large in selection, when we met up with Olga and Calos, our friends from Michael Rose were sitting there to an abundance of food, I managed to have a small taster there of the Patatas Ali Oli, potato served deep fried and served in garlic Mayo, and also a bite of Pulp Aguadulce, flambeyed octopus with onions, capers, tomato and oregano. Just tasting the delight has convinced me that these guys are on a winner. Prices for Raciones start from as little as £3.90 and Carnes dishes (MEATS) average at £13.90 and Paella Y Arroces at £13.95 per person. Vegetarian dishes are available and they serve home made desserts. For reservations call 01273 328672

£23.00 per person Christmas tapas Menu A selection of Tapas vegeatarian available includes Dessert £16.50 per person

Competition WINNERS Starswith Russell Grant Dec 11 ARIES

(Mar21/Apr20) Don’t delay if you get the urge to improve your knowledge or education. Whether you’re keen to learn a foreign language, acquire a new skill or further an interest or subject you enjoyed in your school days, this is a great time to do something constructive about it. A last minute invitation could throw your plans into chaos but you will rise to the challenge and won’t be beaten by trivial problems and once things are organised this could be just the change you need.

TAURUS (

Apr21/May21) Long term plans for the future should be discussed in depth. You might start to wonder how much other people’s hopes are influencing you. If big decisions are involved I might be a good idea to spend time on your own sorting through it all in your mind before making commitments. A big social or career based event will put you in touch with new people that could have a major impact on the way you think about yourself, your life and the people around you.

GEMINI

(May22/June21) All joint efforts and shared enterprises are looking good as December starts.

If you’re thinking and planning ahead you should get together with friends and family now to get your Christmas plans fixed and finalised. If you all pull in the same direction this year’s festive fun will be better than ever. You will be successful in the short term goals you set for yourself now making this a great launching pad for a whole new set of aims and aspirations for 2010.

CANCER

(June22/July23) Money matters are top of your agenda and you might be wondering how you’re going to hold up in the future with the Christmas countdown about to start. One definite decision will be to spend less on festive fun and frolics and to give more homemade presents. Meeting your financial goals will take dedication, hard work and tenacity but if you sit down and create a realistic budget, there is every chance you will keep on top of it all.

LEO

(July24/Aug23) A gift or romantic gesture would make your partner feel really wanted. This will do wonders for your relationship. You have a naturally determined and decisive nature that sometimes could cause a rift between you and a loved one. Start thinking about how you can change things. You can make this Christmas special by working out what your nearest and dearest want most from you and recognising that you might not be able to measure it in cash terms.

VIRGO

Aug24/Sept23) You could come into unexpected contact with an in-law or a friend of your partner.

You’ve never been very sure about how they really feel about you. Now that you get to see another side of their personality this will help you establish a more positive rapport with them. You need to get organised and finalise your arrangements for the month ahead so that you can get out and about and enjoy this festive season as much as possible.

LIBRA

(Sept24/Oct23) There is talk of your specific career activities or private interests and this may involve speculation about a possible promotion, society membership or even a job change. You’re keen not to miss this chance so take your time and think through what you’re going to say and do. You need to surround yourself with people who share your interests and enthusiasms because they will support and encourage you to carry on moving onward and upward.

Masala Zone Dinner Vouchers Eve Bamber - Brighton Mark McCullough - Brighton Barry buckton - Kent Paul Fishenden - Brighton Dean Coreby - Southampton

SCORPIO

(Oct24/Nov22) Any cash or money worries should start to iron themselves out soon. Your outlook on the economy of your household is starting to change. A housemate’s suggestions aren’t so bad as you first thought. Any spare cash available should be put aside to meet Christmas costs. Your thoughts and ideas will get a warm welcome from friends and family who are definitely short of inspiration when it comes to organising their own festive fun.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov23/Dec21) Life will get easier if you approach an ever mounting pile of work with

resolve and determination. Clear your desk of all that outstanding paperwork, reply to letters and get your greetings cards sent. Being prepared to put an extra effort in all areas of your life puts you ahead of the game. You can help a troubled or anxious friend, relative or workmate sort out a difficult problem that requires your brand of tact, diplomacy and sensitivity

For our Christmas giveaway, see page 12 Here is How To enter: 1) Log onto www.one80news.com and click the “WIN!” button. Fill out the entyry form and click submit form.

2) Pop your answer on a postcard with contact details to one80news, 4 Steine Street, Brighton BN2 1TE. This prize is non-transferable and there is no cash alternative. Usual one80news ltd conditions apply (available on request). Entrants must be 18 years old or above.

The closing date for this competition is December 18th

CAPRICORN (Dec22/Jan20) You’re inclined to be a little secretive but this will not help in a close relationship.

Let your partner know the full story even if it is bad news. If you both face up to a difficult situation you will sort it out together in half the time and make life better for all concerned. You should ask, rather than tell people what to do and make the people around you feel values respected and needed otherwise December looks like a tough time for you.

AQUARIUS

(Jan21/Feb19) Close relationships are inextricably entwined with your world of work. This could cause tension if your partner resents the closeness you share with a colleague. If loved ones feel neglected or complain about you spending too much time at work find a way to make it up to them. You should make a start on your Christmas arrangements now and plan something really special and unusual for the person you love most in all the world.

PISCES (Feb20/Mar20)The more responsibility you assume for the future, the more prosperous you will be-

come. Learn a foreign language, take up a home improvement course or sign up for an evening class. Don’t allow a pushy competitor to overshadow you at a big professional or social event. Call After an intense few days you might feel a need to take a short trip to visit friends outside your immediate circle and give yourself space to chill out and work out your next move.
