Default Meeting for drinks CHCH

Hi Guys

We've recently moved to Christchurch, via Switzerland and then 20 years in the US, but are originally from the UK. We would love to meet some people, maybe for a beer downtown every couple of weeks.

Let us know if anyone is interested.
D&J

Interests - getting rid of the kids - almost done they are 16/17, hiking, windsurfing, skiing, oh and drinking beer and wine....

Hi there - did you arrange the meet up? Cos we would also be interested in meeting up with people. We moved here in February and we don't know anyone!! :-( Having said that (bit of an exaggeration!) we are getting to know folks and Kiwis are very friendly. But we would still like to meet other Expats living in and around Christchurch.

Nah - I don't think it ever happened. See - without Joshlin around to sort stuff out it's all talk and no action with us lot.

Well the Dux is central, has a car park, and caters to most tastes. One weekday evening would be ideal for us.

Any other suggestions on date, time and location?

Ton was actually talking about a party at ours sometime in the next month or so - just for the sake of it, so that could also be a possibility. Will ask her to stick it on here if she gets round to putting thought into action.

Hi Dux is fine for us but we have to come in from Woodend, Martin gets home around 5.45 at night so could be back in town for 7.15.
Have to say its nice of you PARTY to think of that this way we could all have a good old chat

Now we just need to sort out a time date and place so next month is fine with me and Martin say.........1st May or 2nd May any other dates?
