If you can make it Jo, all good, if you want to stay, there is room, its a big ask being 300 kms one way

Be wonderful if you turn up...I let Anne deal with the directions/address etc if you need to know.

We are very easy to find Jo, just off the main drag really. Heaps of room here at the inn too if you do get down this way, please feel free to stay over.

Really cool afternoon/evening..those that came are still asleep (well in bed anyway)

Night ended just after midnight..b-b-q went a couple of rounds as did the chocolate...(best yet!)

Suggestion was made that we go to Waipu for lunch today...I woke up with the thought of Mangawhai Tavern....

Will see what happens when the sleepy six arise
