bdspider Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Hi everyone Conference registration begins this Friday evening. We'd like to invite other Christchurch fishy people along. Come and meet other forum and FNZAS members! It's a social evening and a chance for a chat while the conference attendees check in and get registered. This evening will be free, please bring some sort of finger food to share though. We are providing sandwiches and cake and the hotel has a bar for drinks. When: Friday 4th June At: 5pm onwards (We'll still be there if you come at 7 or 8pm) Venue: Equestrian Hotel - 6 Tower St, Hornby Bring: Food to share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Does the venue have somewhere to heat up stuff if required? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bdspider Posted June 1, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 No, I doubt the hotel will look kindly on this... Ps Officially registered conference attendees do not need to bring a plate anyway, your food is paid for from your registration fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 I realise that but sometimes get the urge to do a little baking Of course, sometimes I also run out of time :roll: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 I realise that but sometimes get the urge to do a little baking Of course, sometimes I also run out of time :roll: Are you implying something Caryl? :roll: Then again.... I wonder if they have a pot and oven to borrow? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Perhaps there will be a pot in your room. Can't you fly carrying a large cake as hand luggage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennifer Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Don't worry, it will be ready. It will make a nice snack after the cake (might be best not to eat lunch that day). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 I think we had better forgo all other food on Friday so we have room! :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 If all goes well at work tomorrow, then i will endeavour to make a cake. If things goes to custard like it has today, then no cake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 But there will be custard instead? :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wok Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Not just custard The stuff that hits the fan too. :evil: I was hoping to be finished around 2pm today, and it is now nearly 3 and still have around 4 hours of production and then another 2 hours to washdown. I think I will be a grumpy boy tonight...... ... I hate 16 hour days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Grant had an 11 hour day yesterday then just got into bed when he was called to an emergency fault in Kaikoura at 11.30pm. He finally got home at 4.30am. He is currently in Clarence (halfway-ish to Kaikoura) on another fault and might get home by 6pm or he might not :roll: So yesterday he worked 16 hours too, but that doesn't include the 4 or more hours he did for our own company in between callouts. We don't want the other stuff mixed in with the custard thanks :-? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim r Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I like custard more than I like cake. So here's hoping Wok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
