I'm afraid I can give any more details right now but our next meeting is going to be on the evening of Wednesday 13th June in central London. Info and tickets will be available next week, save the date!

This meeting will be vastly improved due to the very kind donation of wireless microphones from Mumsnet's @janey143 - thank you Janey, you're a Star

Yes it's def being hidden. I searched some of the other event titles with 'eventbrite' and the event was the top hit every time

Pratchet · 05/06/2018 19:49

Dr radfem I suggest you get a new thread going because it appears to be hidden.

Pratchet · 05/06/2018 19:48

When I google inconvenient women eventbrite June 13

There is no hit in page in or page two

Hmm

drradfem

For me to attend in London I would have to pay for travel and due to the late end accommodation.

I'd happily donate towards your costs and I can even offer a spare bed if you were to travel further North.

I'm Wolverhampton but Birmingham has excellent travel links; air, train, coach, bus and tram.

Manchester is also well served by public transport and there must be other options further north.

HelpTheTigers · 05/06/2018 12:37

Would asking for accommodation be an option OP? There are probably quite a few people who would be very happy to provide free accom or a free holiday home use (!) to you and your speakers. Just a thought, hopefully not too much of a dim one.

HelpTheTigers · 05/06/2018 12:32

I will be very happy to help out in any way that I can, if there are any events proposed for the North East. If there is anything that I can do, please PM me even though I'm pretty useless, I will step up to the mark and do my bit.

Hopefully we will have a feminist group organised here soon, which will be real progress,

sleepingdragons · 05/06/2018 12:31

@drradfem I like your pricing structure, all events should be priced like that!

2rebecca · 05/06/2018 12:30

Sounds good, sadly I started posting here after the Scottish ones had been but watching the video is good, even had my son watching some of it last time. Sheila on Yogyakarta will be good, although it's what we can actually do about it that needs stressed and being an international thing what are other countries doing. Suspect a lot just ignore it.

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 05/06/2018 12:20

And me you, Yet another. I see other names I recognize too. Yippee!

NotAnotherFeckingMuftiDay · 05/06/2018 12:16

Looking forward to seeing you again Prawn Smile

I go to places I'm invited to as well but it's expensive organising meetings out of London because I have to pay for travel and accommodation for myself and the speakers - most of these events don't even break even unfortunately

HelpTheTigers WPUK go places by invitation, if you want them up North, invite them!

(I'm not sure how WNTT chose locations).

HelpTheTigers · 05/06/2018 12:05

I'm hoping for more feminist meetings too.

Up North would be a good place and the WPUK event in Newcastle went down a storm. The few people outside of the building who were against the event were students and not aggressive, merely uninformed and naive.

EmpressOfSpartacus · 05/06/2018 12:03

It will be good to see you again, Prawn!

Prawnofthepatriarchy · 05/06/2018 11:52

I'll be there. How lovely! I need more feminist meetings.

sleepingdragons · 05/06/2018 11:49

6:30 - 10:30 - with the last hour being the pub works for me :)

sleepingdragons · 05/06/2018 11:34

Pub!! Grin

Sorry, I mean - will there be an opportunity to chat to each other after?

Typeractive · 05/06/2018 11:32

I have a ticket! Really looking forward to it.

SweetGrapes · 05/06/2018 10:50

Bought my tickets. Not 100% sure I can make it. But hoping to be there.

HoofWankingSpangleCunt · 05/06/2018 10:42

Thanks pratchet. It was lifted from a comment by brovaries about that hideous Rees Mogg chap
I too have images of My little ponies going rogue plus I liked taking ownership of the word cunt. That's another thread. Better not derail this one Grin
