Men in white dinner jackets and beaded necklaces stood chatting with others in shorts and tropical shirts last night at a Pride garden party thrown by interim Liberal leader Bill Graham.
"It's all about bringing people together," said Graham, circulating among guests at his annual event in a lush backyard owned by a friend in the heart of Cabbagetown.
"This started out 10 or 12 years ago as a party designed to bring AIDS activists together with community leaders and some politicians to talk about things around Pride," he said.
"Then people said, `I would like to come, I would like to come' — it expanded by word of mouth and now it's too big for my own house."
As guests began to stream in after 7 p.m., the backyard revealed itself in stages. A patio tucked behind a red brick coach house led to a more expansive area with a fountain and replicas of Roman statues."An event is not a party unless they invite me," said Enza "Supermodel" Anderson, in a low-cut dress and busy as social columnist for the newspaper Metro.

I wonder which way Bill Graham will vote regarding the bill to raise the age of consent...
