Okay as the title says,

We're going to have a cruise over to Akaroa for a BBQ and some good summer fun.

We'll meet up at Moorehouse city ( where bond and bond is) at 10:30am leaving at 11:30am sharp.
I'll have a walkie talkie so others can bring theirs if they like.


Things we'll need:

BBQ
Foods
Condiments
Drinks
Rugby / Soccer ball

djb160
07-12-2008, 11:52 PM

scott.mohekey
08-12-2008, 12:05 AM

djb160
08-12-2008, 12:31 AM

Goku
08-12-2008, 12:43 AM
Lets see here

BBQ - Aston should be bringing his

Foods - We'll need meat, bread, margarine, sauces, plates, utensiles, cups, Drinks (non alcoholic).

Entertainment - Soccer ball, Rugby ball cricket set ?

Not too much then

djb160
08-12-2008, 12:55 AM
By meat you mean....? Sausages, patties, xxx.
Sauces: Ketchup and/or tomato sauce, mustard, anything else?
Breads bread, how many loaves 2, 3?
Margy I rekon just butter up the bread before hand.
I've got a pack of serviettes(sp) I think.
Drinks : how many people are coming?

I've got heaps of cups I can bring. I've got a chilli Bin and ice packs for meat if it's needed.

I'll bring somethings to do with the Foods/Drinks section.

Goku
08-12-2008, 12:57 AM
As for people coming we got:

Me + Missus
Dale
Shane + Missus ?
Tyler
James
Luke ?
Tomo ?
James (with the Sports GT)
Aston
Shaun
Lance
Simon
Johny

djb160
08-12-2008, 01:07 AM
Sooo say what 2/3 sausies/bread each + 1/2 patties.

say a 2lt bottle of soft drink per 2 people?

Does anyone have an special requirements? e.g. vegematerian? Is Lougan coming as well Shane?

Goku
08-12-2008, 03:10 AM
Something like that

I have talked to Tomo, he said he'd be keen, but will let me know

James with the GT is keen too, but will need a ride, due to him not having his car.

Johny
08-12-2008, 04:59 AM

Yes I am going, and I will bring Logan.

As for food wise bring your own!
Or throw a few dollars before we go and get some meat and bread from mad butcher or something. BBQ has to have steak on it :p.
Might pay to get another bbq? how big is it?

Johny

Indeed it might, I haven't managed to get hold of aston to confirm him bringing his, so we should organize a back up. I have a gas bottle, but not actual BBQ, anyone else got one ?

We really need someone with a van for these things.

Johny
09-12-2008, 07:56 AM
who should i hitch with? lol

Goku
09-12-2008, 08:04 AM
Well, I'll be full

I'll be taking James and probably Dale as well.

Johny
09-12-2008, 08:07 AM

Fully
09-12-2008, 08:11 AM

Its not far.....ive done it in 45 minutes before, but normally 1 and 1/2 hours is plendy of time.

I'll try and get a bbq as well. or just need a hot plate and I have a portable one?

djb160
09-12-2008, 09:12 AM
Check back here late friday night and I'll be able to post up if my brother and Daniel are coming, I might be able to temp Dan with the possibility of a crack at Tyler :D If one or both of those guys bring cars it'll open up another couple of spare seats, although the r33 back seats suck IIRC.

My face is sunburnt too. I think we someone needs to have a chat to Lance about his overtaking skills/judgement or lack of.

Goku

Video might be arranged.... Simon was taking some footage in his car.

djb160
16-12-2008, 04:24 AM
it was on the way back, can't remember when exactly, but he was the last to overtake and it seemed pretty close from where we were. He seemed more conservative/cautious after that.

Goku
