    I somehow don't think we'd ever run out of tales.

    Oh, and @TimeRider has finally said yes to attending this year.

    Dont waste your time chasing every last fps, it doesnt matter in the real world, it wont make a difference, all it will do is cause head aches and frustrations. And dont listen to silly old cunts

    NOW I'm sure this will change !! So I would really like those who are going to invest serious $$$ in fuel and time to get here to to be sure that they know this weekend is a lottery! It could go epic and we get a window of weather or it could go shithouse and we have road closures and slips etc after this dry spell. Which may well mean we are stuck at okiwi or your bunking at mine in Nelson!

    Just be sure you know what your getting into please! We can always do an April weekend or just next year ...I just don't want anyone to be dissapointed or put out ....We will be doing this again next year so if you uming and erring save your pennies and come next time would be my advice!
    Hang on @stingray, You better get this weather sorted out... I have given the boy the day off school on Friday, I have fixed up the long line for the kayak shiny new buoys too. I even went and bought a roof rack to get the Yak to Okiwi. Now you tell us you can't guarantee the weather for the weekend? geeze what a blimin tease.

    Friday looks gusty ..if we can punch out to the islands we can shelter there or up squally, Saturday improves throughout the day with the wind swinging from northeast to a southerly ...which Sunday picks up to a semi gale ..perfect! ..I'm packing beer tucker surfcasters and even a few warm cloths.

    If your coming fishing best stop at your local fish shop and grab some for the trip home ...if your coming for yarns beer sight seeing and loosing gear surfcasting ...well you will be well pleased with this event!

    Just had a confab with Pengy ( who would know more about the sea than than "Mr Penguin" aye ) and with the forecast looking so shit I've decided to bail sorry boys, I just rang up & got my flights refunded so there's nearly $400 plus spending money back in me pocket.

    Murphies law alright, but have fun guys & I'll rain check in for the next one, Chur

    I figure there is going to be weather either way.
    So why not go spend some time with some good company and maybe get some fish.
