I was thinking it might be nice to have a Scotland meet up as there are quite a few new members from Scotland and it would be good if we could all get together.

I know Aberdeen might be a bit far north for everyone, so we could find a happy medium for everyone and meet there. I'd be happy to pick people up on the way to wherever we decide to meet.

The only weekend I can't do, is the first weekend of December.

So folks, what do you reckon?

Let me know where you suggest we meet and what dates suit you?
 
I suggest maybe we wait to january for selfish reasons that Jo and I cant come dec cos were at the brum meet up the first weekend and away ski-ing the 2nd and 3rd and then its xmas.
Thoughts?
 
Hi,

January would be great for us also as December is a bad month for us work-wise. Anyway by then our piggie family will be far larger, so we will have lots of pigtures to share with everyone..;)

Lisa & Ali.. x
 
January is fine with me too if it suits everyone else better.

Any suggestions on where we should all meet?
 
perth of course! What could be more central than perth?! Not sure that winter is the best time to do a scotland meet though - you know how our weather can be! My daughter's in aberdeen - garthdee. She.s at grey's art school and works at the sainsbury's at garthdee at weekends.

Perth sounds good to us... x
 
What happens at these meetings? Ive always been curious. Sounds silly but do you take your pigs or something? Or is it just like a day out for us piggy slaves xx

Haha... it's permanently winter in Aberdeen, apart from a few days here and there.

That's cool, your daughter works with one of my friends then.
 
Yeah I've been dying to come to a meet but I'm in Liverpool and you don't hear much from the Northwest.. I'm sure everybody lives in the midlands :P

Plus I've wanted to come to Scotland for and AGE. Went once to the Isle of Arran with a geology field trip, and I felt completely at home.. probably because I'm quarter scot and remember slipping into a happy coma as my grandpa regailed hilarious stories of his youth....aaaaaaaah. There's something about the acccent I love.

:laluot_05:

Not that if I did come I would spend the whole time staring at whoever's talking with a vacant glaze and creepy smile! :))

If ever there is a good excuse to get my bum up there this is one of them :D

I might subscribe to this thread to perve at the time and place? rolleyes

p.s. Winter? PAH! Grab a douvet and a hot chocolate! Let's do this thing in a log cabin! hahahaha

xmas prezzy to myself I guess? Just got to convince the boyfriend to take a week off work!droool!
 
I would like to ask if we could meet on a Sunday as it is easiest for me as I work Saturdays. I would love to meet some more piggy people.
 
We're pretty flexible either Saturday or Sunday would suit us but sometimes Sunday public transport can be a nightmare. We suppose we could always toss a coin to see who'll drive x

Lisa & Ali x
 
haha.. my last post was totally verging on a holiday! That's what happens when I work a night shift. Please ignore it!

I have 12th/13th of Jan off, all other weekends I'm workin :)

Having braved Sunday trains to collect my latest girls I know how awful they can be.
 
Marking my place (subject to dates, obviously) as I'd love to come along to a piggy meet up.
