Fourth Tuesdaytweetup Great Success

Last night saw the fourth Tuesdaytweetup and it was a real success.

Local tweeters started to arrive early and by 6:30 @planetf was chatting to @lawerancecurtis (who only stayed for a while, he wasnt feeling too good had the infamous cold that is doing the rounds) and @steevbishop, @danwellan, @nixsight had arrived as a group to brave their very first tweetup.

Before I knew it the room was full, it was great to see some of the members of the fareham business growth group turn up - a couple of them were finding out what twitter is all about - I hope they sign on soon (you know who you are). Plus I finally met @parboo she's just moved down from Birmingham after getting a great new role as General Manager for the student union at the university, she's been following the tweetup for a few months and will definately be at the next tweetups.

The photographers arrived @howardlucus, @robdunning, @mccargow, @jon_read and @tpphotography. @tpphotography soon had his camera out capturing the mood of the event.
The make up artists @nicolalalalala and @lipstickmiss arrived and were gutted that no one had turned up with sweeties or cup cakes as promised.

The screen was visualising any tweet on twitter that had the words "tuesdaytweetup" and it was great to see messages from @jtonline and @mrsjtonline sending their apologies for not making the event as were honeymooning in Canada and @clar_key (a tuesdaytweetup faithful) sending his best wishes all the way from california.

It was good to see faces from some of the earlier tweetups @amandagolding, @grantshankey, @lattrill, @adammanning, @cminion along with meeting some new tweetup fans. Here's a few of the tweets that have appeared on twitter from some of the tweetup first timers.
