    Look out Wellington....here comes Fishy!

    Righto people of Wellywood, me and the missus comin down your way for the weekend (Friday 7th and Saturday 8th July).

    I have been down to Wellington a couple of times but have never really had a look around so any ideas on things to do etc would be good. We are already planning to take a look at Te Papa cause they have the Lord Of The Rings thingee on there at the moment.

    Anyone keen to meet up for a few drinks on Friday the 7th July? Would be good to put a few faces to KB names.

    I will be at the Bristol at about 7pm ish.

    I could possibly force myself to wander along for a couple of drinks. Say the Bristol Hotel?

    Yeah Sarah is a big LOTR fan so she is quite looking forward to it.

    Not sure where we are staying yet..will find a hotel somewhere.

    Unfortunately we won't be on 2 wheels, bringing the car down

    Hey Fishflaps, I think you'd like the Monkey Bar or Sovereign Bar.

    Well ive never seen any of the movies (I really cant see myself sitting still that long) but I really enjoyed the exihibition. I cant believe how much work went into even the little details!

    Well try and get a hotel in Wgtn central so that it'll be easy to meet up. I kind of like Colapops idea about going to the Bristol, but up to you guy's really...

    Nah, Poo's recommended them, he likes them cos they always play his requests. Barbara Streisand, Bette Midler etc

    I've only been to Wellywood once back in 2003 to watch the All Blacks on their knees.

    Sweet as, most of those places are very close (walking distance) from the Bristol and other pubs.

    I reckon you should start a thread in meetings and events closer to the time to remind everyone and hopefully you'll getto meet a few of us...
