Stu: Damn it. Family commitments that weekend. 😭

 

Family will be there the weekend after and the weekend before, this will not. I question your dedication and priorities.

Actually, no. Sister is visiting from Australia and things are booked. Not the usual family commitments, unfortunately.




People often mistake me for an adult because of my age.

 

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

Would be interesting to go along for a look but I'm away that weekend.

 

Plus living near Oamaru makes it very expensive to get up north. 🙃

Make your way an hour north and jump in on our carpool & flight! 😉

 

 

 

Just as an added FYI, our team will (likely) be up for drinks/food the Friday night (can work out when/where closer to the time) - however we'll be leaving pretty promptly after the event to catch our flight home, so won't be able to join anyone for drinks Saturday night sorry! 😊

Nice, Ricky (2degrees) and I (ex-2d/snap etc) are flying up from CHCH, hoping not to grow a 6th finger on a hand, nor marry my sister visiting.

 

Nick.

@freitasm Can you advise a suitable hotel to stay in?  PM me if you prefer.
