625236 2007-12-28 08:19:00 Hopefully I do not hijack this thread. As the title says "Auckland PressF1 member" I will not qualify.

I could come but at this stage I am not invited.

Fortunately I was able to see two PressF1 members on Boxing day. One lives near Wellington and the other lives near Hastings. One of these is a cousin.

You have a good idea and I wish you luck.

I have met Beetle in the past but have not yet met Metla.

625237 2007-12-28 08:34:00 Auckland is the best gathering point (1 million population), so it is a real pity that I have to discount those who live further from here.

Cheers :)

So PressF1 finishes south of the Bombay hills?

Geography would tend to indicate Wellington or Picton would be a better venue. I happen to live in Tokoroa which is central North Island. It would only take me around 2 hours to get to central Auckland City.

PressF1 is world wide. Would you like to see SurferJoe for example?

Have you arranged a date and venue yet?

I did not say non Aucklanders may not come. I used the word "Auckland" in the thread title as a means of informing where would be the venue, considering that it is the biggest city in New Zealand.

Anyone from Northland to Southland may come, of course. :thumbs:

As I have said, this thread is meant to find out who is interested.

Translation: It will be hard for me to organise any meetups away from Auckland as I am based in Auckland.

As I remember it Auckland is a composition of several cities. I may add that the several cities seem not to agree. Very much like Maori tribes or even neighbours at times.

I am interested but may not be able to arrive due to other commitments at the date, time and venue you come up with.

625243 2007-12-28 10:27:00 Would depend on the date - back at work on the 7th (:() and out of town on business from the 17th to the 27th.... johcar (6283)
625244 2007-12-28 13:16:00 Perhaps some time mid-february. Im with Bob_Doe_NZ. We all know where PCW headquarters is, its printed on every single PCW magazine. IIRC theres a real nice swimming pool in the building across from them, although unfortunately if memory serves correct its a hotel :(

But seriously, Im not sure they'd like some 14,000 members showing up on their doorstep. :p

I put down that Im *interested* in the idea, will follow this thread closely ;)
