I second that :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Sorry to hear you aren't coming Al and Nibs :( :(
It should be another great trip.....
although it is a wee bit far to come back for Al.
Bet you're enjoying not living in "ShakeyTown" these days Al.

I can look after your share of "Blue Shit" for you both :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ok the plan (at this stage) for the welly convoy is to come back to shakytown on Sunday (as we can't do the mon & tue trip due to work commitments etc)....the others are heading off at the same time ... so that means

(a) We need somewhere to stay sun night (blue liquid payment can be given) floor space etc is fine etc ... otherwise any suggestions?
(b) What about a Day trip / play in the mud somewhere in CHCH?
(c) BBQ/Beer Night that night?

Thoughts?/Ideas?

Just before you drop into the river, there is a big shed and kinda a parking area, were a trailer could be left. Just bring a chain and padlock, padlock it to the fence......... :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Or if you are using it to sleep in you can tow it up there. They take the firewood in on standard trailers.

That one with his son on way funny as, told him that when we fall of to let go, so he held on when we fell of.... :lol: :lol: :lol:
