West Coast Trip

SupraLux · Post by **SupraLux** » Tue Jun 27, 2006 4:32 pm

Not confirming yet, will possibly be a last minute decision for me... but THE WIFE SUGGESTED I GO... :roll:

Whats the world coming to... no arguing, no being nice for weeks beforehand...

I'm confused... it might be a trap :lol:

But I think I'd like to go...

I'd be very suspicious if i was you. When a woman starts doing things like that shes usually up to something....

Shit Kev, you ain't lived unless you have stayed at the Otira. What for frost on the inside of the windows, the coal on the woodburner that only goes with the door wide open, the questionable steaks, the supersonic pooltable with felt as original as the pub, do I need to go on.... :lol:

C'mon Steve - you have a green light and you know you want to. Exorcise the ghost of Easter past and bring that MU out for a play with the big-boys

.

You're blessed that the good wife has given you carte blanche ... my mission was convincing the handbrake that this trip is not suitable for women and children. She and the wee-one had so much fun @ Easter, they're rallying for another trip

. Working on this myself.

Tim,

I will need to confirm 100% later, so dont book anything for me. Things are a bit hectic at the mo, and may end up in UK for a few weeks, not sure when...

Cheers,

Bill

Theres only one thing that worries me more than 4WDing the MU when Riks around... and thats Rik driving the MU... so bugger it, I'd better take the path of least resistance and come

Still not confirming... aparently there is a little more building to be done on the renovation front before its a given that I can go. But its looking good.

Would love to join you guys, but we fly to oz on the 29th for a holiday :roll:

Oh well, will just have to put up with beaches and bikini's instead of big wet sloppy holes :lol:

Misses is still a bit iffy about you lot after the little tent episode on the last trip, so that rules out all camping trips in the future :wink:

Not stepping on my toes Kev, saves me the job :lol:

so guys if you're coming make your own bookings at posted contacts, we are staying at the bealey pub friday night, and at Ikamatua hotel Saturday night, accomodation choices are plentiful at both depending on what you wants, budget type (own sleeping bag) is about $20 at Bealey and $13 at Ikamatua,
