Heh heh Shoota, I think to summarise:
1. Rangi reported on a Nthland Trip
2. Rangi wants to do it again
3. Kawhia says he wants to do a roadie to Sth Island after geese and quail and seeks expressions of interest
4. General preamble about moon phases
5. New date ID'd
6. Band is identified as some US mettlers
7. Rangi says bring a skinny white boy from Kohi - "gonna make you squeal like a pig, boy..." Snuffit says "skinny pale white boy may alert geese to our presence, are you sure that's a good idea?"
8. Shoota says "WTF", and "unlike Coronation St its impossible to leave it for 6 months, return, and within 10 minutes be immersed as if you'd never missed an episode"
9. Present time and all stars are aligned
10. Snuffit applies to TV Guide for job
