    Wellington Cup day and Party!

    This weekend the club trip is to the Wellington cup day.  For those of you who don’t know this is an annual event where you go and watch horses race around a course maybe bet some money and find new and inventive ways of smuggling alcohol in.

    • Meeting 11:10 at the Wellington Railway station
    • Catching the 11:30 train

    There will be a Wellington Cup after party at Andred and Tims flat

    I believe that there are a few people thinking about going to this event

     

    Some of these candidates are

     

    Tim

    Sarah

    Andred

    Fiona

    Mike

    Jeremy

    David

     

    I am not entirely sure on numbers and stuff like that.  I would say that there will be at least a few people going.  The best bet would be to chat to a few friends and meet at the train station at 11:10.  A surprising number of people could turn up and they usually do with that wake up on Saturday morning “what am I going to do today? I know I will go to the races”
