Hi all,   Be there at 9!  Natalie has asked me to organize food. So after many a brutal beating I have conceded to being food organizOR. Bangers and mash: Bangers- Adam Mash and Gravy- Natalie Onions and veges- Jason Red wine-  Jeremy Dessert- Peter   Looking forward to it.   Adam  

Right so for our food group, we are doing vege Nachos! I think I will just get the food, so could you guys just bring 5 bucks each to pay for it? That's Scott, Miri, Guy and Hazel. This will get you a delicious gourmet extravaganza involving guacamole, sour cream and spicy chilli beans! Plus marshmallows for the campfire after... Cheers,

Right, so from the mouth of Natalie: The food groups for this weekend are - Kieran, Miri, Scott W, Guy, Hazel for a vege type meal and then Natalie, Jeremy, Jason, Adam, Peter as the carnivorous bunch! We are not planning to stop on the way so bring enough stuff for lunch, breakfast, drinks etc. You will also need to bring a contribution for ...

Oh cool, well we might as well drive along the coast a bit, at least for those that have 4wd/are keen enough! I'd be keen to take a look up Stonewall Stream and the rocky ridges around there for a daytrip, so maybe camping on the beach down that way would work... I'm sure we won't be hard to find anyway Craig! Here's a map with the conservation ...

Yep I'll probably leave at a similar time - can meet people at Hunter Carpark or pick people up if you're somewhere on the way :) I'd probably be keener to muck round Saturday afternoon, drink Saturday night and go do a decent day walk on Sunday but am not at all fussed really and could be persuaded either way... Maybe we ...

Christmas on the beach at Takaka anyone? I have a vague plan of heading down the weekend before Christmas to stay with Jess, do some climbing, lying in the sun etc. But depends if anyone else is keen to come across and share petrol/ferry costs... As for new years, I was thinking of heading down to the Southern Alps just after Christmas and going ...

2 for 1 cocktails - need I say more? We are also celebrating (mourning?) the fact that Jess is leaving our flat, the end of exams, Guy Fawkes and... anything! Do you need an excuse to drink cocktails? Chow is on Tory St, just next to Burger King. I have booked a table for 10 at 9.30pm (awaiting confirmation) - they have some quite nice ...

I'll be going climbing after work and then wander about to find a decent vantage point somewhere (maybe part way up Mt Vic). Then there is a vague plan to go get some food and 2 for 1 cocktails at Chow, let me know if you are keen, we might try to book a table as it'll no doubt be busy with the guy fawkes (forks?) crowds...

The Paramount is on Courtney Place, we're meeting in the upstairs foyer about 6.10pm - or BurgerFuel (corner of Taranaki St, Courtney Place) at 5.30pm if you're hungry :)
