First the woman thing drags me out of bed, then she forces me to go outside and come to the meet. She then proceeds to force me to ride in her MR2 (for those of you who have done this in the past you'll know what a traumatic experience this can be) after which I sat in the devastating pit of uncomfortableness for half a friggen hour whilest no one showed up.

I will now proceed to go sit in the corner and rock back and forth.

You best have a rifle and a bottle of cheap moonshine if you're attempting that ;)

im gunna butt in again :twisted:

auckland is large.
auckland has many many ppl

could it not be viable to have 2 weekly meets?

or maybe alternating meets?
one week on weds, next week fri.


with the population base of auckland i cant see why you couldnt have 40 ppl at each weekly meet.

maybe after SKs meet and greet BBQ enough interest could be drummed up to make it viable?

all you need ot do is bring back the love to TS.

Hey theres plenty of love to share at the AK TS meets, we just need people to show up so I can share some :twisted:

Irrelevant of Auckland population, the attitude towards meets seems as snubby as people you meet out on the town. If Welly/Palmy were within reasonable driving distance, I'd drive there to attend the meets.

That aside, Wed night this week I'm up for a meet. Question is normal time (9pm) or will people go if its on at 8pm?

so long as the trusty *coughs violently* supra holds up and theres plenty of love to go around.

Guessing no ones keen for a meet tonight. So I'll probably see you all next Wed around 9pm'ish, unless someone says otherwise.
