Default Whangaparaoa Meetup

Hi Guys and girls, there seem to be quite a few of us that live on the peninsular, anyone up for a family-friendly meetup? Perhaps a BYO picnic at Shakespear or Arkles Bay?

Invite open to other forumites in the area of course, always good to find new neighbours and friends....

I may be persuaded if there's chocolate involved!

And I may be persuaded if there's a (full) bottle of Veuve Cliquot involved. My tastes are simple (but expensive) also.

I'd quite like chocolates too, as long as they are Belgian

Just the one bottle????? We will surely need a couple of bottles at least ...... and maybe lots of straws !!!!!!

Am not officially on the peninsular but close enough. Count me in...... have only been here 6 weeks so our social calendar is not particularly full ..

When and where????

Next weekend weather looks fine at the moment, how about:

Sunday 13th March
Shakespear Park Te Haruhi Bay (Meet nr Picnic Area 5)
Midday onwards, stay as long as you like.
Full-family, our 4, 10 and 12yr-old girls will be there...
