Posie Parker will stream it live from her facebook - it's an open page so look her up, or her youtube channel

Manchester is a long way from London isn't it (I'm just off to catch the train). I'm sure some London plans are in the pipeline and we can get something together for all us southerners.

I am sooo jealous of you all - Manchester is just too far for me. Have a great night. Come to London! Please not when I'm on hols Grin

Sweary - Where is this being livestreamed please?

miketv · 28/09/2018 10:09

Really looking forward to it. Has there been any signs of protesters turning up? I'm blocked by some on twitter so not seen anything Smile

LangCleg · 28/09/2018 09:58

Good luck, Sweary! DH and I will be tuning in.

SwearyG · 28/09/2018 09:22

You'll have to wait for the livestream to find out (I still haven't decided which one to wear, so important to get the right look for the cause, no? More important than anything I have to say for sure Grin)

BeyondAdultHumanFemale · 28/09/2018 09:11

Which of your shirts is the most feministy, G? Grin

Ironing though? That's not very suffragette of you Wink

SwearyG · 28/09/2018 09:08

Painting my stubby, practical nails in Suffragette colours as we speak

I ironed my most feminist-y t-shirt Grin

BeyondAdultHumanFemale · 28/09/2018 09:08

I was going to come but I have a sick small person.
Have a lovely time everyone and I can’t wait to watch along on YouTube.

SwearyG · 28/09/2018 08:58

It's today! So excited! I've triple checked I've packed my speech and I'll be off up north after lunch.

For people who aren't there it will be live streamed. On Posie Parker's youtube channel, and most likely as Facebook live too.

See lots of you later!

Thanks I've had the email, from Posie

I'll be fine - if it's a long walk from Victoria I'll get a cab.

MustBeDreaming · 27/09/2018 14:14

Does anyone know for sure if / when more tickets are being released? I'd love to come but they were sold out by the time I saw this thread!

LadyBrianAdultHumanFemale · 27/09/2018 13:24

Ursula if you have accessibility/access needs do email them and let them know.

miketv · 27/09/2018 13:15

Apparently the venue will be revealed at 4pm tomorrow.

LittleMissedTheSunshine · 27/09/2018 08:49

If anyone wants to lift share from the burnage/ didsbury area or anywhere on the route in to the city, I'm happy to offer a lift

UrsulaPandress · 27/09/2018 08:39

When and how do we find out the venue? I have mobility issues so need to plan my journey.

drradfem · 27/09/2018 00:13

I'm so excited about this event!

UrsulaPandress · 26/09/2018 21:31

I'm sure I read somewhere that more might be released when the venue is known.

I'll smuggle you in under my coat if not b

Giriffraff · 26/09/2018 21:24

Anyone selling a spare ticket? Just went to buy and sold out :(

UrsulaPandress · 26/09/2018 13:11

I'll be getting the tram in from Oldham if anyone wants to meet at Victoria?

DoYouLikeBasghetti · 25/09/2018 18:38

Thank you that means I can go!Smileexcited!!

LadyBrianAdultHumanFemale · 25/09/2018 18:07

The talky bit is 6.30-9 and then drinking/mingling after. There's always people who will lift share etc.

silentcrow · 25/09/2018 18:06

My ticket says 9pm, Basghetti, but i think there's a bar afterwards.

sunshine dashing out now but pm me, let's sort something out Smile

DoYouLikeBasghetti · 25/09/2018 18:00

I'd love to go but what time does it finish? On public transport so would need to be able to get a train home.
