ajbroome Posted September 5, 2002 Report Share Posted September 5, 2002 Bruce, Seems the Palmerston North club hasn't received any info on the upcoming big weekend. Maybe you don't have the latest postal address for us? Anyway, can you send me the details, to my home at: 15 Rata Street, Palmerston North and I'll make sure people see it at the meeting on Wednesday. PNAS is looking at making the trip and will want to get on top of it soon so we can organise accomodation and so forth. Several of us will be there and are looking forward to it. Thanks, in advance, Andrew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Waikato club hasn't received any info either, address to use is: 37A Carrington Ave, Hamilton Thanks, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Neither did Marlborough but I think it was sent to an old address and not Napier's fault. Not only did we change secretary but the new secretary then moved house! We don't need more info though I don't think as Bruce emailed us the basics. If there is any other stuff being sent, please send it to me, 8a Faulkland Dr. Blenheim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Could we get someone that has all the dates, times, addresses etc that we need to post them? I've decided that I'll probably be driving up the day of the auction and home that night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 I assume both the fish display and the auction are open to the public. Can someone confirm this please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ira Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 Map link? Good thing I joined the UHAS, otherwise I wouldn't be able to get in. Fair enough though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caryl Posted September 6, 2002 Report Share Posted September 6, 2002 You still wanting to follow us up Ira? We are booked on the Friday Lynx which leaves Picton at 11.30am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Posted September 7, 2002 Report Share Posted September 7, 2002 Hmmm, Not sure. You'll get to Wellington about 2ish, I think. I think we were planning on leaving earlier than that, give us some time to do whatever in Napier beforehand. I'll check with the wifey though.

Ira Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 Oh! Caryl! I forgot I never got back to you! Sorry. Looks like we'll probably be leaving here early in the morning, probably 8-9ish. We'll be getting there really early, but I'm sure we can find something to do to kill time. Going to be a long day, hope we can buy something nice to make up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 We have even further to travel than you but have to leave later as the only ferry we could get onto was the Lynx which gets into Wgtn around lunchtime. Obviously you are happy heading off by yourself and will have plenty of time to find your way if you get lost. Mind you, there aren't that many roads to choose from are there? See you there!

Ira Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 Hmmm...Oh, guess I didn't mention it, I thought I did. The reason for the change in plans is that my wife is going to come. With her coming we can't stay overnight because someone's gotta be at home to take care of the kids if we did that. Kids being 3 cats, a dog, 3 birds and 4 tanks. She knows how to get to Napier and wants to have more time there. Hopefully we'll see you there, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 We have to make a point of finding each other Ira. Having met so many in this forum I love the chance to meet in person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruce Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 We will all have a chance to catch up with everyone at the Pot Luck Dinner and Auction on Saturday Night. If you need any directions Ira send me a PM and I will give you my cell phone number and you can call if you get lost :lol: /Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 Didn't realise there was a pot luck dinner organised. Is this, along with the auction, being held at the school hall too? If so, are there cooking (or food heating) facilities? Sorry if I have been given this information but I have gone through all I can find (we never did get the original stuff Lisa sent) and can't find it mentioned.

Caryl Posted October 14, 2002 Report Share Posted October 14, 2002 YIKES! We are booked on the Lynx and it has just broken down. They say they hope it will be ready by that weekend but I hope that means it is running on the Friday. I will ring the Interislandline and ask if we should re-book on the Aratere or Arahura.

ajbroome Posted October 14, 2002 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2002 Folks, Being as slack as I am, I just started organising somewhere to stay for the saturday night of Labour Weekend. Kennedy Park is full, except for camping sites. The Nurses hostel thingy is also full. Other options are being explored. People are suggesting Havelock North but that's a bit far out for me... So, if you haven't sorted yourself out a place to stay, best you get onto it ASAP. Andrew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
