Kickaha - I'm not into rugby, so you can talk to me while it's on.

Mind you, if Doug Howlett's playing, I'll keep half an eye on the screen.....

Well I will be putting it on my list of things to do on Sat night hehe

seems to be the only thing there so far.
I may even be able to con a mate of mine into coming with me............... Providing I don't tell him the rugby will be on HA
Would be great to have the chance to meet up with some of the Wellingtonians on the site. I keep thinking that White Trash and Jimbo can't be the best you guys have to offer

Ah no it's ok, I just remembered Lynda and Hamish will be there hehe IQ of the evening was just raised 10 fold!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But we're alllllllllllllllllllll special! Some are just more special than others

**riffer** · 26th July 2004, 17:36

OKay guys.

Gini and I have pretty much settled on the format for the evening.

As you know we are celebrating the end of winter and start of spring (Imbolc), which traditionally is on 31 July.

Therefore its traditional to have a bit of a end of winter feast.

I have previously said bring a plate, lets work out what to bring. A pot luck type arrangement would be cool. We can all mix and match food and come up with something yummy before the evenings festivities take place.

We are lucky enough to have a REAL chef coming on Saturday (Hooks) so if you have any ideas for him, send him a pm.

For those not in to rugby, you're in luck. The All Blacks are NOT playing, so I don't really care if the rugby's on or not. Of course, if you'd like to bring some interesting motorcycle-related dvd's that would be cool.

There are a few partners coming, so obviously there will be those drinking and those not drinking so don't be put off if you think its just a pissup (even though I imagine some will be intending to sample a number of scotches).

I don't have many scotch glasses - does anyone have any they can bring?

I guess a good kick off time if we are eating is any time after 6.00

PM me if you need more info.

One bed is already taken. There are 3, maybe four left.

So far those confirmed:
Celticno6 and his wife Gini
Gini's parents (not kbers but bikers)
White Trash and his wife, Lena
Lynda and Hamish Blair
Hooks & Her_B4
Celtic Sea Lily & TWO unnamed blokes
wkid_one (& partner?)
Puppetmaster & partner
Kickaha

Oh, and we won't be in the gargre. It's too cold, small and smelly, and full of crap to fit more than 3 people in

**wkid_one** · 26th July 2004, 17:41

Now - bludging time: I need a ride as try as I might - I don't think the cops will look to favourably I me trying to drive the car with my crutches to operate the pedals.

There will be two of us and we only need a ride one way - any and all others appreciated (of course - we can only accept one, well two if we travel in different cars!)

Sounds good, although does this mean there definitely won't be rugby? This is important b/c my ride will not come if there is no rugby.

Ahem...I'd also like to take the time to clarify that there is only 1 unamed bloke, well if you really wanna know his name is Jimmy (not WT) and the other bloke is Kickaha, so it's not nearly as sordid as it is all sounding!

Just tell me what to bring for 3 peoples worth & I'll make sure we bring it.

LB · 27th July 2004, 05:22

It's sounding like it'll be a good night.

So Celticno6 - do you want us to say what we're bringing, or just turn up with something? My specialities usually contain copious amounts of chocolate....

Hooks - good to hear you're coming down from P/Nth.

Wkid_one: where do you live? If it's in L/Hutt or close would be happy to collect you (or is it a ride home you need?)

Mitch: - thanks for the compliment re the IQ (though I think Hamish can take most of the credit!)

Looking forward to Sat!!

Hey guys ... I was thinking I might do some marinated lamb .... done with lemon & garlic .. it's a good mix and goes really well with strong flavoured liquor

... do you mind if I use your oven to cook it ... I'll have it ready to go when I get there, I hope, unless the day is a stunner

and we stay out riding, in which case I'll bring it all and do it up in your kitchen whilst sampling

.... if there are any requests let me know early so as to make sure I have all the gears in my bag of tricks !!!

Lynda - I have the feeling you are about to become my wife's best friend!

Declare what you are bringing if you want. I don't mind

Cathy - we have sky sport - there is another room you can watch the rugby in if you like, but I don't want to put it on in the lounge unless the majority want to watch (damn that's uncharacteristically PC of me). i'm easy any way but do understand others don't like the way rugby tends to take over.

Hooks - no worries using the oven mate.
