Hell Yeah Spig.

As a matter o fact. syMptom and Blizzad went last year and i am planning to go with them this year. So we were just waiting for the day to be confirmed.
If you wanted to go then even better. But you can confirm that one way or another the Angry Eyed Buggy Brigade will be there representing Chch.

Anyone else keen to go?

Bugger.........If Kiter is on the BBQ then that means I'll just have to pour the beer

I have car and trailer leaving Friday Morning 7.00am and return home Sun pm. Anyone that wants gear taken up can call and we can see if we can fit it in.
