Okay, just been on the phone to Fox and Ferret at the palms. Have booked out the Mezzanine floor for us, and with the possibility of the function room if the crowd gets big... 6.30 seems a good time to start off with drinks etc...should be good...

Hi Bren can you please add Phoenixgtr to your list. I have a work function to attend, but what time do you think you will be ordering dinner??? I will double check on Tuesday what time the work thing will be finished cos if I can make dinner I will.
Sounds like it is going to be a good night!

Dunno what time we will order...I will hazzard a guess at 7:30-8pm....drinks from 6.30 onwards, and as some of you folks have lives and such and possibly dribblin in as time allows I believe 8 is a good time to order....bloody hell, looks like it will be a good night...

Unfortunatly I woke up in the middle of the night and said to Phoenix isnt your sister coming to stay friday (I think I must have been having a nightmare that reminded me of the visit).... but we have decided that we will come for drinks after dinner and say hi!

I hope I can make it, unfortunately the "calendar" is on the West Coast this weekend... Sounds like it might be a night to leave the iron horse at home and opt for a taxi-bus combo.
I might just be daft, but I didn't notice a meeting time anywhere... But thanks for pointing out it's the one at the Palms, I only knew of the one by Riccarton.

I'll drop past for a drink or two after work. Depending on how long I get stuck on the free work beers.
Well, guys....I have been down in the south since sunday night, and as sinfull said...it was a hell of a crossing on the dinghy...This is the first tim,e I have been able to access KB. No internet where I am so have been using the computers at the library.....alas they block KB because of the "porn" content...
Fox and Ferret at the palms from 6.30 for drinks...think we should be able to order dinner from 7.30-8.00
Also please remember to settle your bill at the end of the night, dont want it to get messy..:msn-wink:
Really looking forward to seeing you all...
