Gay North

Welcome to Gay North

After some serious server problems, Gay North re-appears on the Internet Gay Scene, hopefully none the worse for wear and missed a little perhaps.

Here at Gay North, we hope you like the new look and feel to the site. The blog and forums should be making a comeback, but due to other commitments are not rushing them into place. We want the gay north chat forums to be just right when they reappear. Other resources will also be added on occasion, when we find something worthwhile, which, indeed, we hope will be quite often.

Many parts of the site now auto-update as gay stuff happens around the Internet and we hope you find this useful.

Enjoy your stay and we hope that, if you find the site useful, you will let others know of it's existence (link us if you have your own site)!
