Family commitment change means I’m not going to be able to make it sorry.

You're not on Atlantis anymore, Duncan Idaho.

We're inside at table 40. Some genius forgot to ask for an outside table on such a fine day

Top night thanks gents!

Thanks for the tab Vodafone, very much appreciated. Great to meet you Richard, thanks for taking the time to fly the Vodafone flag. Your plans to foster this group in our region are very welcome and exciting. If anyone in Manawatu/Whanganui/Taranaki need Richard's help with anything Vodafone send me a message and I'll give you his contact details.

I'm looking forward to the next one already!

Great night was had for sure. Thanks heaps to Richard and Vodafone for supporting the event. Was great to get out and meet people both new and familiar over beers, food and great conversations. Can't wait till next time.

I feel terrible! Completely forgot about this! If only there was some type of "tech" that could have reminded me...

Twas a good evening indeed.

I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad, a Quic user, and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. 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. If you use my Quic signup you can also use the code R570394EKGIZ8 for free setup.

Thanks to everyone that made it for a top night out, was great to see faces new and old. Hopefully those that travelled got home safe, thanks for making the trip up @Lias and @scottjpalmer and over @wally22! I managed to come out feeling a little bit less worse-for-wear than last time, so that was a bonus haha

To those who couldn't make it, hopefully next time! We'll try not to leave it as long between drinks!

Thumbs up for a great evening. This was my first GZ IRL, and it was great to meet up for drinks and chat. Will definitely pop along for the next one. Cheers to Richard and VF for the support!

Hola everyone!

After 2 successful meetings, with the last being back in November 2021, I'm gauging interest in another Manawatu catch up. Yell out if you're keen and we can come up with a date that suits as many as possible. Out of region participants are positively encouraged to attend and I'm sure @lias @scottjpalmer and @freitasm can attest to the friendly nature of the locals hahaha. Come one come all I say!
