It’s getting late & I’m getting mixed up. Been a crazy day today. Sorry. :hb: Xx I’ll be happy to meet at any London station if it helps anyone. Regents Park picnic sounds like a great idea as long as the sun shines & I don’t get my hair wet :D XX
 
If it is at Regent's Park could you meet li'l ol' me at Waterloo? please? London's so big and scary!

Waterloo - Couldn't escape if I wanted to
Waterloo - Knowing my fate is to be with you
La la laaa! :whistle::D

It would be a bit of a diversion for lil moi :soz:
 
Of course @Betsy. If I’m remembering rightly now ( my brain is half working tonight) Waterloo is the station with that clock. Xx I’m looking forward to meeting you at Birmingham first that’ll be fun xx

It certainly is! Xx looking forward meeting you and Dave and everyone else too!
 
Regent’s Park sounds great.

Hope I can make whatever is chosen. Though the thought of meeting so many strangers sends me into a mild panic, I think I’ll be OK knowing you’re all pig-people (in the best possible way!)

You’ll be fine :) I too was very nervous on my first meet, but soon slotted in and talked piggies :D x
 
You'll be fine! If you get on chatting on the Forum you'll get on in person. Everyone is just the same. I was really nervous last September at my first meet in Reading. Now I can't wait till the next one!

How’s about a pignic in Regent’s Park? A couple have been organised in previous years on here. Great fun, easy access from London Euston and cheep too as you can bring your own booze :beer:

I love the picnics always a hoot - Dave the squirrel @helen105281 , Mrs Blobby, Cheesewires @Tim ..... OMG the memories are endless!:D :whistle:

Don't fancy going to London on my own! I'd get lost in Waterloo Station!

I have to come in at London Waterloo, I'll happily meet you at the station @Betsy ... we can get lost on the underground together, Me the country bumpkin in the big ol capital city-always fun times to be had :woot: (I'm direction dyslexic so travel is always interesting with me)

I'm not keen on travelling to Bristol :xd:

but Reading, Regents park, Basingstoke are all good for trains for me. Basically anything along the Exeter St Davids/London Waterloo line is just perfect from here.
I'm tempted with the Brum meet but its about 3+hrs there & the same back, so probably wont make it. :no:
 
We are trying to work out an area that is central for all southerners but we'll put it to a vote before we talk about dates.
 
Waterloo met up would be good for me too. I dont like the underground but would be ok if I was with other people ... How will we recognise each other?!

Depending on where you are in Hampshire could we meet on the train @flowerfairy? I'd be getting the train from Southampton Parkway. I'm not hard to miss just look for the lady with the mad hair and carrying two knitted guinea pigs!

The way I’m reading this is you’re arranging to meet up with yourself :hmm: How many pieces are you getting there in? :))

Edit: now I get it, methinks it was an error whilst quoting @GPTV ‘s post :nod:

You are correct! Don't know what happened there! Did everything the same as normal.

don't panic.. i get lost walking to my garden gate! :lol!:
I used to be horrendously travel sick as a child, so I just used to get in the car & go to sleep not to feel ill, hence I never have any idea of where I am or where I should be!:doh:
i kind of teleported from Location A to Location B with no concept of distance or time!
