Although far from home, Britons in Boyz Town celebrated the Diamond Jubilee of the U.K.’s Queen Elizabeth II in festive style.

A packed Cafe Royale in South Pattaya watched the jubilee parade live on Thames TV June 3. The crowd was festooned in British hats with plenty of Union Jacks on display.

This being Boyz Town, though, there was some gay camp thrown into the celebration. A member of the Dolly Sisters drag queens paraded through rows of tables. In his company was a faux relay racer for the Olympics.

Following the parade, those in attendance rose for the British national anthem, singing along in loud voices.

The “British queen from Pattaya,” John, alias Dolly Sister, together with the relay runner is welcomed by manager David Kerridge. The “British queen from Pattaya,” John, alias Dolly Sister, together with the relay runner is welcomed by manager David Kerridge.
