And so it should be. Can't have just anyone wandering in here. There's hardly enough space for those of us here as it is

Yep you do need a passport for NZ but no Visa. I go there every year/ 18 months or so

Hey Gary/Rob, any further word as to dates for your event. I've got about 3 million inlaws coming over at about that time (everyone except the astronomy group by the sounds of it) so it seems like a good time to leave the country

Hi Paul,
Date will most likely be May 6-8. Nothing else confirmed as yet. Still sorting out a venue. It's likely to be pretty low key.
I'll keep you posted...
Cheers

Thanks Robby. I'd certainly like to come and if we need the bed space at my place then it could be quite likely

Gary, how soon do you think that the date will be confirmed. I'd like to book my tickets and there are some cheap ones going at the moment

Paul,
I am as much in the dark as you, with Robby, and another over here seemingly sorting it out.
I would think that if I was you I would sit tight a little longer, as if it does go ahead the dates are going to have to be set in concrete, and soon.
As Rob stated though, I am sure it will be low key.
Gary

Yep, I agree, it "should" be good, and if nothing else I can almost assure you that you will learn something.
If the sorts of folk I envisage being there, are there, then it will be an all round learning environment.
The only snag is the low key look, and this makes it difficult to sell, and buy. Hang in there.

Hi Paul,
I'll get my a into g and see if we can't firm up a few things. As I said I have a couple of venues in mind, but need a trip up there to suss them out a bit further. Weekends just seem to be so full at the moment.
I'll keep you posted...
Cheers
