Hi, I thought seeing as how the date has been settled on now I could just put an announcment here to tell everyone all the details without having to scroll through the thread to find them.

I hope that 12:30 is ok for everyone and I have decided that Three John Scotts is a good location as there are quite a few people coming and this pub has big tables. It is near the court house and Argos in the old town. For those of you coming from outside Hull these are more detailed directions.

By Car
From Humber Bridge/ M62
Follow the A63 into the centre of Hull. You will come to a very odd junction with traffic lights, here you will see Staples and signs for the Ice Arena. Continue straight on and at the next junction with traffic lights turn left. Not too far down there is a multi storey car park on the right just before Argos, it will be easiest to park there and walk. From the car park, cross the road and turn right, the pub is on your left a little way down.

From the North
If you do not come via the A63 you will probably come down Beverley Rd. At the big junction where the Hull Daily Mail building is on your right go straight on through the centre of town and you will arrive at the big junction with Staples on your left. Turn left and you will be on the A63, follow directions as above.

By Train/Bus
Come out of the station at the main entrance and cross the road. Walk up Jameson St until BHS is infront of you then turn right down King Edward St, past Mcdonalds and under the big TV. Cross the square and cross the road outside Princes Quay. Turn to your left, past the row of bus stops and follow Alfred Gelder St to your right past the back of M&S. At the cross roads turn right and the pub is not very far down on your right.

Anyone who is not familiar with the area can meet me near the car park, outside Argos by 12:15.

I will bring a toy piggy for easy identification :))
 
I went down there today and we can reserve a table and the car park is £2 for the full day.
 
sounds good to me :-) i am still intent ongoing,although obviously if gran takes a turn for the worst i will have to pull out, but at the moment she's stable and doing well, so it;s looking positive for me being there.
 
Good, fingers crossed for your gran, hope she is ok and you can find me using the directions.

your directions maybe one thing...mine and lindsays navigation skills maybe another lol.....just watch out for two brunnettes doing circles around hull, when we go past for the fourth time i am sure you will realise it is us :p
 
If you are interested in coming and haven't already let me know, please do so I can book a table for the right amount of people. Thanks :)
 
Bringing laptop...

To anyone who is coming to the piggie meet - I shall be bringing my little laptop with me so if you have a flashdrive with pictures of your piggies on it then we should be able to look at them easily.

I plan to show you mine!

I'm sorry I won't be coming, I have really bad ulcerative colitis - not eating much or going far from a loo at the moment :( Really gutted, please take lots of piccies of your day for us all to see :)

Awww no, what a shame. Hope you feel better soon.
 
gran was discharged from hospital earlier this week so i am def coming - have sorted with lindsay meeting, and given ourselves plenty of time to get lost in :)p
 
thanks for arranging the meet up today, it was really nice. looking forward to the next one, and hoping maybe a few more members can make it!

caramac has now moved out of his wooden house...and into his "sleeping bag"!he seems to approve very much of it.:))
 
We certainly did have a good time we had a nice meal, drinks and lots of piggy chat.

Sarah took her laptop so we could all show our piggy pics.

I came back armed with lovely sleeping bags that Sarah made so the pigs are now asking when I'm going again hoping i come back with more.

Heres Chocolate and Jimmy modelling their new sleeping bags





It was great we are going to sort out another meet before Christmas over here in Scunthorpe(so Becks and I dont get lost this time)

hmmph I had to look at flipping cars all day, and still haven't got one, so another day at it today. Sorry I missed it I was really looking forward to it.

Glad you all had a fab time, I really hope to make the next one.
 
Sorry for the time delay in posting - sinusitis laid me low! I had a great time and I'm glad I took the little laptop because looking at pictures was wonderful fun. I've been bending my other half's ear about the meet and really want to do another nearer Christmas, in Scunthorpe this time.

Thanks to Lindsey and Becks for coming over the bridge and finding us in a very confusing Hull! I can recommend meeting up to other forum members too, if anyone wants to organise one in another part of the country. I found out a lot of useful information talking face to face.

And brilliant pictures! Many thanks for showing those as well!
