Wgtn Lunch 17 July

**merv** · 14th July 2006, 08:29

If no-one else wants to start this thread I will.

After last week we had comments like how about we try again Monday 17 July, and how about somewhere else (ie. cheaper)? but central.

I've suggested on other threads how about Stanley Road corner Willeston and Victoria Streets (near BNZ "State" tower) - that's real central between us dudes in the Lambton precinct and those down the Manners end. Pies are on the menu, but its not a pub. If you'd all prefer a drink as well suggest somewhere else and we'll see what consensus is.

I'll put it in my calendar so see you then. Let's call it 12pm sharp so we grab some tables - others can drift in as they can make it.

Stanley Road's pies are the BEST in town. Sounds great to me Merv.

Still too far for my half hour lunch. When you get closer to the Motorad area I'll be in.

Man Skunk you way up that end of town - we'd need to catch a bus to fit a lunch in up that end of town.

If you've got the time, why not? (p/t)

This thread seems a bit slow so far when we are talking about next Monday but if you were to suggest a lunch up your end of town the week after where would you want to go? So maybe next week you get the next thread started and see what interest there is.

OK definitely slow on this thread only got myself and Jim2 so far. Anyone else in for lunch Monday?

There's Brooklyn and La Affare real close. Other than that Cuba/Dixon Street area... Don't normally go out to lunch.

Is every Monday too soon? Maybe monthly?

OK you set it up and invite us next week for the week after. Maybe me and Jim2 can come to your one as well.

As for weekly, it was just at the last one the feedback was yeah let's do this again next week. Maybe resposne here proves that was not so!

Hawkeye should come at least to meet a couple of us.

L'affaré is absolutely mental at lunch time. Brooklyn is, from memory, a bit better but not by much. Brooklyn also has a couple of huge tables, so maybe we can wing one of those.

I reckon monday is too soon too.
