What time do these things finish? I am trying to work out if Leeds one is practical for me.

SSM depends on which one I think. The Leeds one is designed to be child-friendly, so starts teatime ish, march about an hour. Then there is a rally till maybe 9ish. Kids are welcome too.

I think I mean parent-friendly as well as child-friendly

Hi there
There's one in Bristol, in March I think. Not sure of the exact date yet. I did it this year and there was a great turnout plus a crowd of us did an Object feminist Friday beforehand too!

Me, me, me. I'm coming with my mum and my sister and my nephew and possibly my son too. Just waiting for confirmation from FiL that he's allowed to come. I'm very excited.

How late does it usually finish? We need to be on the last train at 10pm unless I can find cheapish accommodation.

Honestly can't remember, and depends how many people are there etc. But you can duck out at any time and ask a PC to direct you to the station - we are completely surrounded with them on the night. I always wonder whether they're there to protect us from passers-by, or passers-by from us ;o

I know and I get my train from st pancras so not far ro the station but I don't want to miss anything! Unfortunately I don't think I stand much chance of finding anything cheapish for 3 adults one little boy and a baby.

If it's the same place as last year (Camden Centre?) then it's literally slap bang opposite St Pancras. If we're early then you mighe be able to pop into the party for a bit too :)
