When we stop getting 14-26 people turning up everytime that might be a point.

Also FYI we went to nando's, fireman's arms, nando's and burger fuel last four meets; last month we had a consensus that we'd go to burger fuel instead when we all met up at nando's, and because we didn't have 25 people and it's down the road this was an easy option.

I'm not against changing it up now and then, but current approach is working fine

[Scoobydoo]

Only because we are used to having different options. Only a few years ago the meets were always in the same place, and it worked well (Hells Petone), but yeah, variety is the spice of life sometimes.

Status quo is fine by me (local meets are good haha)

[spark_38]

Oops, I meant having the meets in J/ville... last two months (i missed) and this one... one wonders where the next one will be

I will be based in the outskirts of Upper Hut shortly, and the drive won't be feasible. I'm not suggesting a meet out there, as only 2-3 of us are there - and let's be fair it's a s**thole

[Stoffa]

I dont mind where the meats are, Im just happy to be able to bring a subie to them again haha

But if you need a vote, Burger Fuel for me

[YVNE]

Agreed with the meets always being in jville is annoying. Hence not going. Do something different, dont care where so long as its not there all the time

[MercuryFree]

See you guys later on!

[Fizzy Toucan]

Yup. Setting off soon.

[bford]

[Stoffa]

Steve came out to see your car because he's convinced it's a myth .

Good turnout though, think we had 18 people - nando's actually had other customers for once so it was a squeeze but we did all fit. Good to see everyone

[spark_38]

A few of us are going to try out 'The Art of Pizza' in Upper Hutt on Weds night; as part of our end-of-course outing for Intermediate Electronics cse.

Will advise of outcome...

Good news is: they have plenty off-street parking, large carpark behind the VTNZ

Will suss out the size and potential catering to medium sized groups - it maybe feasible to have a meet out here, since 4+ of us are out this ways

Their website is still under construction. http://artofpizza.co.nz/

Jase, I still have some beer here in my garage with your name on it. Missed you at the last meet I wasn't there, and the previous one you weren't there

[spark_38]

That pizza place was nice. Prices range from $12-26 for a roughly 32cm pizza. I didn't finish mine, leftovers for lunch tmrw.

The dine-in was booked out. We had a small group of about 7, ordered takeaway and it took no longer than 15-20mins - not bad, considering they were made on the spot. My mate even got a free "Taranaki" beer, I didn't even realize Taranaki had their own branded beer

They can cater for groups of say 18-25, but require two weeks notice. I was going to suggest July as a possible meet? But realized I'll be in Aucks for last two weeks. How about August?

True. I haven't been to many meets - unlikely to make the one next week, as I'm assuming it'll be in J/ville again...
