    I'm in too.

    Can we get an action plan? Nothing fancy but I think it would be better if we all (or most of us) arrive in group rather than one at a time.

    One more thing - looking at the link it doesn't clearly mention that this event is open to the public.

    just to state my position clearly: I'm all in for this but the location being private property, if this event is not actually open to the public of if the house owner asks us to leave (it's his property so he can do that) i'm not in for any vandalism or any of the sort, because I believe this would do more harm than help our cause.

    The calendar link on the parties web site says

    Venue Ballance Residence
    Address 68 Calcutta St
    Khandallah
    Attendance General Public

    and although it may be a bit ambiguous if attendance = general public I would infer it is open to us as generals public.

    Our aim is to make our presence felt and to keep Johnboy on his toes right ?

    Like - we are not going to roll over and let things lie.

    We're not aiming to carry out any such antics such as deliberately sabotaging the event by taking up all the parks unecessarily are we ?

    I think a polite, rational and well reasoned chat about the ACC situation with John and some of the attendees should be our goal, lest we get trespassed and make ourselves look bad.

    Yes/No ?

    I am all for turning up on the bike, leathers and t shirts, but being able to mingle, say gidday, have a drink, and talk intelligently about the subject of ACC being torn out from under every New Zealander.

    so thats a Yes vote from me to Deano's post above.

    My new catch phrase - if ACC goes from NZ, then welcome to another little America, right here down under. the thin edge of the wedge alright.

    Meet at Kaiwharawhara Caltex at 5.45pm, leave at 5.50pm. Takes less than 10mins to get there...

    Also, register your rsvp in the poll so we have an idea how many are turning up!

    It was discussed on TRTNR so potentially a dozen of us. But we will leave duckpond at 6.30pm and head there via some back roads. Should be there by 7.30-8.00pm ish.

    Yes/No ?
    Yes I'm definitely for this.

    So is someone going to email an RSVP to make our attendance official? Less chance of us being denied entry if we've notified them we're coming I reckon.

    Yep can do.

    So do you think we need to give them our names or just my name "and friends". I'll wait until Sunday night to email her.
