On the way home, I saw some verbal exchanges between couples to the point where I badly wished that I had some of the Freedom Programme cards to slip into the women's pockets.

The freedom programme speaker was incredible. Moving, invested, highly informative, and the lightest of touches, which is extraordinary under the circumstances.

I did not manage to take my eyes of her in order to take a picture.

On the way home, I saw some verbal exchanges between couples to the point where I badly wished that I had some of the Freedom Programme cards to slip into the women's pockets. I'd be rubbish at doing it unobtrusively and there's always concern about escalating the disagreement but one of the squabbles was bad enough I was about to ask the couple to step away from the edge of the platform when the woman must have sensed the same and moved to the wall as the train came in. I visually checked in with her to see if she was OK and she nodded slightly so I boarded the train.

It felt like a living example of what several of the speakers had addressed during the meeting.

Sandy Draws Badly is live-cartooning it on twitter as well

OMG, Baileys coffee is available in a can!?! I like how Sandy always gets the salient points across in her cartoons.

I’m someone else who had to pass up the after chat and nip off after the meeting ended. I had biscuits and everything in my bag because I’d baked them for the Westminster Mags. In anticipation of going along this afternoon but that proved unnecessary.

It was a fab evening! Sorry I couldn’t hang round for the pub. Powerful speakers, great crowd, brilliant all round

Beautifully put, LiverpoolReSisters. I wish I could have been there, but I had to pull out this morning as I'm not well enough to travel.

How wonderful. Wish I could have gone. I'm really liking the direction that LAWS have gone in here

This is fab. Love the cartoons to accompany Sandy.
So wish that I was there. sigh

Julie Bindel - what a woman.

Everyone is fantastic. The attentiveness off the audience - we are drinking it up. This is feminism: by women, for women, about women. Beautiful.
