tickets

Speakers are
Posie Parker
Hannah Clark (ManFriday)
Jean Hatchet
Anne Ruzylo
Julia Long

It's the same night as the WPUK event in Leeds so if you can't get over there come join the Manchester Meeting!

Of course I know your posts SpartacusAutisticusAHF! Because they are superb.

Maybe we spoke in the pub, I don't even know!
I'm happy that women are organising and gaining in strength.

Completely OT here, but where did the rest of your name go, Barracker?

I had me an elective barmectomy.

I had me an elective barmectomy.

Nothing to do with being Up North-West with the barm cakes and deciding to give them up?

There may have been a little activism in Manchester today

Elletorro - applause

Aaah, I wondered what you'd get up to! How did it go?

Looks great

Mumsnet guidelines were not adhered to

Elletorro - did anyone thing you were a live promotional trailer for the programme?

(Obviously, you're a promo for the Mumsnet Radicalisation Programme but I mean that one based on Atwood.)

It was really amazing, I loved every minute! I'm gutted that I didn't realise who everybody from here was though, like Barracker. I was the blonde Scouser in black and white stripes who asked the first audience question, btw

I'm halfway through the video. Might need help identifying who is whom.

I didn't make it as the bus didn't arrive but glad to see I wouldn't have been the only one with cans of g&t.

Ursula - the video from last night?

Speakers in order were Hannah Clarke from Man Friday, Jean Hatchet, Anne Ruzylo, Julia Long and Venice Allan, with Posie in all her green goddessery as chairwoman.

The g&t made me laugh, I never would have thought to bring anything even if I hadn't been driving!

Sounds brilliant.

Was Jean the ex prison officer?

I think the ex prison officer is Anne Ruzylo.

Jean H is the one who shared her story about cancer and is (literally) on her bike.

Whooops. Of course. Jean in the ball gown straight from the funeral.

I feel like such a fool.

So disappointed I couldn't been there but had a lovely reply to my message from Julia Long which made my day
