[bradc]

I was hoping you guys would be eariler so we can spend the afternoon making sparkler bombs :D

It would be a shame if the weather was bad, it has been so good this entire week!

[SirVr4]

[bradc]

yeah definitely. There will be about 10 kids there, ranging from about 5 to 15, so that won't be a problem at all

[Gly]

plenty of time for sparkler bombs, not dark till 8-9ish now.

uc's busy till 2-3pm and i'll be going with him to get some fireworks,
hope he knows some good places? when hes ready so yeah,
wont be heading out to yours till then ish?

[bradc]

yeah ok. I'm going to try and find lots of packaging tape tomorrow :)

[Gly]

you cant buy sparklers in sperate packs now apperntly??!!!

they should only be coming in fire work packs now...

to prevent people making sparkler bombs!!

[You See]

They really know how to spoil our fun huh! /Grrr
Guess we'll have to get a lil' more creative!...BEWARE!! :evilgrin:

[SGHOM]

[bradc]

you just need to find dodgy little shops to get the sparklers seperately :) It won't be that hard to do.

[Nigelator]

Gly, UC, I will see you there.

[KiwiTT]

you just need to find dodgy little shops to get the sparklers seperately :) It won't be that hard to do.Going to check out a place in Ash Street, Avondale.

[DefeXion]

So, what direction is brads house? Will you guys be traveling through the shore to be there, or is brads further from where you are meeting.

Just wondering if I can meet yous on the way.

[Gly]

we are going from manukau/botany (where me and uc live) to karaka (where brad lives),
(we head towards hamilton)


no where near the shore

[DefeXion]

Damn.... well I guess I will meet you guys at te irirangi

[You See]

Nigelator/DefeXion: Leave Gly or myself ya numbers just in case you can't make it or are running late, etc.

There was an ad on the radio today something about industrial fireworks on sale somewhere...didn't quite catch the details tho. :(

[Subaru ETA]

defexion, where you coming from? mike and i will be leaving from my place in herne bay

[Subaru ETA]

you got my number defexion, drop me a txt if you want to meet up

[You See]

(if the weathers **** i wont be going, fireworks and rain dont mix)
It's starting to rain out these ways now, hopefully it'll pass through overnight and leave us with nothing but clear skys tomorrow! :baby:

[DefeXion]

I'm playing tennis at about 1:30 and I have to take my friend back to Herald Island, so I might go to te irirangi straight from there. Will give you a text if I need to though. I will be leaving from Forrest Hill

[Subaru ETA]

mike and i may meet at gull depending on how we get on, but dont wait around for us

[You See]

Ok, we won't. :P

[Gly]

well weathers looking ok so ill be there.

are we supposed to bring any food stuffs?

[Ryan]

I seem to remember a BBQ being mentioned so might be a good idea?

The sky is looking increasingly overcast though...

As for me attending tonight, my other half had to end up working today so hopefully she'll still be keen afterwards.

I'll be using my other car so if you see a green MR2 coming down the drive do NOT shoot :P

[Gly]

ok we'll throw sparkler bombs at you...

ill pack a few ball bearings in for good measure :P

[Subaru ETA]

this is why mike and i will be taking my car, not his subbie! :P

[KiwiTT]

I'll be convoying

[Kenneth]

dunno when ill be able to leave, but if in time I will convoy

[SirVr4]

lol my mrs to said shall we take her forester cause she just brought it so wanted to take it 4 a longish drive, my answer " well the boys would be happy you brought more fuel for the bomb fire" :):):):):):)

[bradc]

I'd be happiest if you bought the VR-4 to drive in, and the forester for the fire :)

And yeah if you want to bring food then thats fine :)

[You See]
