Wellington Dinner March 19 2016

[TomVexille]

It will be an interesting year for both of us, TomVexille:
Crusaders - no Carter, Richie.
Hurricanes - no Conrad, Ma'a.
Maybe catch up with you at AAMI Park when the Hurricanes are in town on April 15th!

To be fair, we haven't seen much of either of them in the last few years. Conrad is easily one of my favourite players of the last 10 years. He'll be missed.

I would certainly be interested in heading along to AAMI

 

[Kiwires]

I make it a point to invite a few like-minded rugby nuts from Aotearoa and England to a Hurricanes game when they come to Melbourne.
Drinks/snacks at the Precinct Hotel before the game!
Will keep you posted if you're inclined to join us.
P.s. When the Hurricanes were in town in 2014, I had my photo taken with Conrad, post-match. You should see the grin on my face!

 

[JessicaTam]

Folks, please confine discussion to the WLG dinner.

 

[straitman]

I have these people currently listed as gold:
ANZ787900
windycityf
Samiam
Straitman
Straitman+1
Welsh-Kiwi
Welsh-Kiwi+1

Can you please confirm if you are coming?

I would love to be able to say yes we are coming to the dinner however I have to be practical and say that we won't be there or anywhere else for a little while.

 

[JessicaTam]

Darn it!*

*Polite version of what I am actually thinking.

 

[JessicaTam]

Ok folks, crunch time.

I need final numbers by this Friday to confirm the numbers with the restaurant.

Last chance to come along to the 2nd Annual New Zealand AFF Dinner™

Yay! Can't wait. And it turns out, my last day "at work" will be spent in the F lounge

Confirming that I am out

Have a great time!!!

 

[straitman]

After a certain amount of pressure has been applied by an unnamed individual there is now a small possibility of our attendance.

Dislike.

Like.

 

[TomVexille]

I believe that I have convinced a couple locals to join us

 

[JessicaTam]

Thanks TomVexille. We are now locked in with 11 dinner guests.

That means we have the back room to ourselves.

Now, does anyone have any dietary requirements that the restaurant needs to be aware of?

And secondly, can you please let me know whether you do or don't want the matched wines? It doesn't matter either way, just so the restaurant knows what to expect.

I'm getting a little bit excited!

Sorry to say that we won't be there.

Seems our next event will be Oz Fest in May.

You can go to the lounge meets thread and see if anyone else can offer a guest spot, if not you can enter your details and maybe someone who has not listed their flight will see and offer. There are also "I'm in the xx_X lounge" threads you can check out on the day of travel

edit, I see you had found the other threads before this post

Unfortunately I think it would be unlikely that you could join us in the F lounge as you need to be on the same flight, sorry.

 

[Welsh-Kiwi]

Unfortunately I'll be in Australia so won't be able to attend.

Hope you all have fun in Wellington.
