We did years ago, post earthquake. No reason to not do another I would think.

Thanks for the replies - yes I think I was away for that. I'd be keen to attended the next one.

Decent turnout?

We had more in Christchurch in the last couple of years, than in Wellington. I email everyone when this is happening. Make sure your profile is set to receive emails from us.

Agreed. I think it's incumbent upon @nate to open new cafes in Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington, Christchurch and Dunedin specifically so these events can held regularly.

I'm sure @nate needs no encouragement to increase the size of his empire! I heard he's also planning a start-up to compete with Uber et al?

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

Keep calm, and carry on posting.

New Cafe's with stand-up comedy? I like it!

I thought @hio77 would be hosting the next one on his large rural bush block, along with a Spark 5G COW for fast Wi-Fi?
