Nifty. That's a cool thing to have been a part of!

It was, yes! Not the most organised march I've ever been on - but that may be partly down to the very disparate range of participating groups *g*

Glad to have been able to go, though.

You have been on really well-organised marches? I am impressed!

Well, no, not really well-organised, no, not exactly! Now you mention it and I come to think of it. I suppose I'm just comparing the sprawling disparate feeling of Sundaywith the marches against the Corrie Bill and other anti-choice legislation, which may have felt more cohesive because the groups involved were more similar to one another.

Oh, well done you for marching - thank you!

It was a pretty good turnout, I guess - I mean, of course it would have been great if there had been even more people, but it wasn't bad. And a very disparate range of participants!

Good on you for making the effort.

The Green Party increasingly looks the most appealing, come the general election.

Have to admit it wasn't really that far for us to go, so easier than for most! It was a pretty good turnout, and a good demo to go to.
I'm always in two minds about the Greens, usually partly depending on whether it's a marginal or a "safe" result in whatever the vote is, but I definitely want them there.

I skipped this one, and I would normally feel all guilty, but thank you for doing it for me :)

Well you would have had a hell of a lot further to travel (unless there was a local one) than I did - just a quick hop on the bus, fer us. I'm glad we were able to go down.

That's awesome! So many people!

It was a pretty decent turnout, yes, but very modest in comparison with some - apparently 300k in NY?!?!?!?
