Thanks - Have booked. Hotel seems reasonably full as not many options left.

Looked at the price of flights and decided a road trip it is (helps I quite like long distance driving).

 

I'm happy to pick up other GZ'ers along the way if my timing works. Tentatively will be departing Kapiti around 1-2pm Friday, travelling up to Palmy to drop some kids off, then travelling up to National park for the night, then onto Hamilton on the Saturday morning and returning Sunday. You'd need to sort your own accomodation, because I'm not up for bed sharing unless your cute, single and female lol.

I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it.

Folks, we plan to close registrations for this event close on 22 March so we have time to clear attendees with the data centre.

 

Remember, if you are not in the list you can't come in.

Thanks everyone for coming along! Was great to meet some new faces and thanks @quic for hosting this! Guess I also have more of a reason to pop down to Timaru to see my sister now also!

Was indeed a good afternoon, well worth the road trip.
