Question: Why am I the new skid in the tag? Skiddy is an inbred..hence my puzzlement at why he didn't fit in down south :scratch:, a trait that I found is correct when I met him in person haha..no worries skiddy I'm takin the piss, I can't actually get angry at retards, so i'll never be angry at you.

Anyway off that topic, lets get pissed on friday. I'm not riding in cos I wanna drink, I know nish will be keen.

P.S Im Sri Lankan......spin a globe for a couple hours...you guys might find it haha.

we could, but then we have to organise getting everyone there... and frankly the SMC always amazes me at a total inability to follow directions to well known landmarks, while keeping to a generous time schedule we still manage to miss....

Wherever we want!. Am sure we could scare up a few car parks throttling on the bikes :-). There's a car park further up high street. Also there's plenty of free parking at down town. Usually park my bike there.


Aotea square or the bike park next to Dominos?

Aotea Square...dude, that's quite a walk.


Theres bike parking near courthouse lane if we going somewhere close to High St.

That's on the other side of high street isn't it..just where Metropolis is.

*cough* /me has a a secure work carpark (not a "uni-secure aka not secure at all" carpark but rather a real secure carpark) about 50 metres away from Vulcan lane. *cough* ;)

now that could work... how many spaces, how likely are we to all get towed?

Can find room for maybe four bikes I suppose, so priority would go to the shiny ones.

Of course, there's a public bike park even closer to Vulcan lane - about 30 metres away lol. :rolleyes:

Although that is the same park where some twunt knocked Daisy over.

4th September 2008, 07:54
Vulcan lane it is. Am going to park mine at downtown. Don't have to worry about getting towed and it ain't that far.

we need to not be turned down for coming in full leathers

and people will get lost

which pub exactly do you intend to visit?

We won't have a problem parking at Down Town. Ample of bike parking.

There a couple of pubs. Am thinking of Occidental or O'Carrols. They usually have benches outside.

If we get there by 4ish, you should be ok. Haven't been asked for ID yet.

Strata.

Bloody hard for new members to find us if we're at a new bar every week.

Besides, Strata is best, because it's quiet so we can talk, it's usually fairly empty, so we're not trying to fit a million people around one little table outside and having to pay extra just for the "luxury' of being able to drink outside.

I am poor. Too many bike, car, power and insurance bills [and fucking parking tickets] and insufficient income. [Will change soon I hope...]

The only time I have a beer outside home is Fridays with the SMC.

I wouldn't know where to start in Auckland for a night on the razz! [Dunedin OTOH :shifty:]

See y'all at Strata then. One could always adjourn from there as a compromise if desired by sufficient numbers.

Strata.

Bloody hard for new members to find us if we're at a new bar every week.

Besides, Strata is best, because it's quiet so we can talk, it's usually fairly empty, so we're not trying to fit a million people around one little table outside and having to pay extra just for the "luxury' of being able to drink outside.

Guess Strata could always be a starting point. Gets a little lame when it's the same place every week. Also Blue Stone Room is reasonably priced in comparison to other bars.


I am poor. Too many bike, car, power and insurance bills [and fucking parking tickets] and insufficient income. [Will change soon I hope...]

The only time I have a beer outside home is Fridays with the SMC.

I wouldn't know where to start in Auckland for a night on the razz! [Dunedin OTOH :shifty:]

See y'all at Strata then. One could always adjourn from there as a compromise if desired by sufficient numbers.

Quite a few places that actually have Friday specials. Don't intend to spend too much on alcohol myself. One way too much nights of those in the past week!

The chiller is going to remain at strata until another place of comparable quality and prime location is found with a good reason to move there. being on or very near campus is imperative

we can and often do move to another bar after we leave strata




think the objective is to make the robot walk a straight line.....or something

pssh that's a weak compsys project any idioit with half a degree could pull off

ours had to do an obstacle course including a 30 degree incline (steeper than you'd think, traction a mission) and a ball pit. our robot rivalled a fourth year project for difficulty/complexity/awesomeness

And quote rightly so. "ANZAC" and "Cookie" are two words that should never be uttered together. :eek5:

OTOH - I do wonder what would happen if you added a little something to the ANZAC biscuits - are they still biscuits then? Or do they morph into cookies??

There was even vegetarian pizza - which looked rather good. Hopefully I am less poor this Friday.

They're acclimatising to us. Soon we'll perfect the art of blending into the furniture, and we'll be able to stay there until midnight.
