I went down to Pig Paradise in Wiltshire, which was quite a hike. I learned loads, increased my confidence handling pigs, and had a chance to discuss pigs ALL day without worrying about boring people to death
I haven't been on one of Karen's courses but she certainly knows her pigs (though I think she's a bit biased towards Kune Kunes - Hi Karen) I would recommend going on a course but Robert's suggestion of contacting pig-keepers in your area is good too. It's great to have people to ask for advice, and TAS is magic for that, but it's handy having someone nearby for mutual help.
