Ive had a hiccup with bbq location. turn out my landlord is working early morning shifts that weekend...
So now have to find somewhere else... we could go down tahuna beach (free use bbqs, but possibility of a crowd)
Or up the maitai river (same deal, but less lighting after dark..)
Unless someone has any better ideas...

Sorry Guys been a bit quiet on this. Wife ended up in Hospital, so been a bit preoccupied. Nephew decided he would have his 21st Queens Birthday weekend, so family coming from all points. No cruise for me :evil: His Birthday was in November, what's that about :?: Didn't ask me, but date is set so I miss out on the Cruise. Have a great cruise guys. :gun: Envious, make it a good one.

Whats the plan for this. I can not come in a Datsun, but considering the low numbers I may come over from Wellington in the Cube just for a meet and greet.

I dont know what time the guys will get here from chch but thinking about meeting up at repco richmond I gather around 1-2ish then cruise over kaiteriteri via the moutere, over the back side of the takaka hill and back to nelson.
then bbq at tahuna beach or up the maitai.
you guys might want to check in to your accommodation first? I dont know..
sound good?

Due to lack of members from chch heading up I've decided not to head up for this. Sorry to inconvenience any of the guys from Nelson and Blenheim but would rather spend long weekend working on the 180. Cheers
