I'm just back from this and it was a great day seeing friends and piggies :)

Wiebke's cakes sold VERY fast before I had a chance to buy :(

It was nice to meet you Stewybus and put a face to the name.

My piggies have had a nice time too and are currently crashed out in their shed x

It was nice to meet you too & Wiebke, Sue_G, Sarah_from_Chucklebunnies, Dindipig not to mention Wiebke's cakes. They were almost complete when I saw them, but my wife went to get a piece 15 minutes later & they'd both sold out.

Sorry, no pics. That busy talking to other piggy slaves that I forgot to get the camera out. There was a photographer there from the Yorkshire Post so if you Google that later in the week their may be something on line.
 
It was a great day, and so nice to see old friends, and meet new ones. Sorry to MargaretB that I didn't come and chat to your piggies - I kept meaning to. And super to meet you and your wife Stewy - I missed saying "goodbye", my apologies. I LOVE my doll, please thank Sue so much again for me.

I got home (170 miles each way) in remarkable time, but discovered I'd been touching 80 rather a lot - please don't tell anyone.
 
I had a lovely day today! It was so nice to catch up with everyone, I got lots of pictures so ill put them up tomorrow! (I was the volunteer with the camera who kept pestering everyone to smile for photos!)

Yay photos!
 
Another glorious Pignic. What a superb annual event this is becoming. It was great to meet so many piggy people again in one place. There were several forum members there too, I can't remember all your names (no surprise there) and the weather held up all day. There will be a write up in a forth coming edition of the Guinea Pig magazine, so if you have any great fotos, send them.
 
Lovely day indeed and several new forum faces and piggies to meet as well as old acquaintances to renew! Great to meet you all, family Stewybus and family Margaret B!
Sorry for anybody who didn't get a piece of cake - I can lug around only so much on the train... Perhaps next year?

After a detour to Milhaven rescue in Keighley (where Jo is doing a great and very dedicated job), I actually made it home before midnight with some precious cargo. And yes, I DID manage all 8 trains involved on my big round trip! :))

Too busy chatting for taking pics, sorry!
 
I had a fantastic time as ever. I raised £36.50 by selling cuddle pockets for Cavy Corner and thank you to everyone who bought one. I spent the day surrounded by beautiful piggies, they were everywhere you looked, and really nice people who wanted to talk about them! Just the best time ever.

Anyway, I only took three photos, one after the other, near the end of the day when quite a lot of people had already gone. Here is Sue G, cuddling mine, then Dave on the right talking to two other people whose names I don't know next to the 'snuggle a piggie' area, and then Laura and Alison (I think) at the Guinea Pig Magazine table. There was loads more, indoor stands, volunteer piggies, visitor piggies dotted around the field, it was just great!


 
It was great to see you again Sarah, and to have some quality snuggle time with your gorgeous piggies. I'm glad at least you managed to include my guinea pig earring in your photo!
 
It wasn't a terribly good photo was it! Sorry about that! Lovely to see you and chat to you on Sunday though. I'm already looking forwards to the next one!

That was fine, Sarah - I hate having my picture taken, so it was just perfect! Piggies and earrings are far more important. :))
