(Apologies if the link isn't clicky, not done this before!)

Has anyone been before? I'd not heard of FiLiA before but what I'm reading looks pretty promising!

Do we get actual tickets?
I paid weeks ago and have booked my sessions etc, but I've never been before so I'm not sure what happens with tickets.

The T-shirts look great & yes, I was radicalised by Mumsnet. Back in 2014ish when the Women’s Equality Party told us they thought violent men should be in women’s prisons.

I’m going to resist though because I realised recently that I had a Standing for Women top for almost every day of the week (plus the FPFW ones, plus the Filia one, then there’s the bags..) Blush

I took a wonky photo. The one on the left (mine) is obviously 'radicalised by MN', the one on the right is my DD's and says 'radicalised by mum'. Bought from an online company called spreadshirt. Ordered last sunday night and arrived yesterday (thursday). Highly recommended.

Loving the T-shirt's!

Candidpeel See you there! I’m excited about the party, missed it last year.

Also - REALLY coveting one of those radicalised by Mumsnet T-shirts!

WichBitchHarpyTerfThatsMe · 13/09/2019 21:03

T-shirts have arrived!

FiLiA conference 2019 anyone going?

That reminded me to book a ticket for the party! 🍹

I'll be there. It will be my 4th Filia conference. They are wonderful.

I forgot an important question....

Anyone going to the evening party on the Saturday?

@TinselAngel - I would wear that T-shirt!

EmpressLesbianInChair · 08/09/2019 15:43

Last year I remember recognising women at the hotel I was staying in by their T-shirts. And then it would turn out that we all knew each other online Grin.

And say hello to Julian & Lisa-Marie, the amazing organisers, if you get a chance.

WichBitchHarpyTerfThatsMe · 08/09/2019 15:25

Just bought tickets for me and DD.

Thanks for the explanation Spartacus Smile

TinselAngel · 05/09/2019 16:10

I was thinking of getting a "radicalised by Mumsnet" T-shirt printed.

What do the letters stand for? Couldn’t see on a cursory glance - educated guess F is for Feminism?

Databreachnamechanger · 05/09/2019 15:04

Hello all, apologies for starting another thread- stupidly failed to see this. I'll be there again. I was with a non MN friend last year so didn't meet up with MNetters but would be excited to meet people this year. Pink carnations? Glitter deeley boppers? ☺️

MForstater · 05/09/2019 13:18

See you there!

Weezol · 05/09/2019 12:58

I hope to be there.

Yes!! Am really looking forward to it :-)

SuperLoudPoppingAction · 01/09/2019 08:37

Thanks.
Nice to know there are some women-only spaces.
I went to the old Feminism in London ones a while ago

EmpressLesbianInChair · 01/09/2019 08:21

Is it women-only?

No, but the two I’ve been to have been overwhelmingly women (and I do mean women), and there are some women-only sessions.
