    Gibo it is about an hour and twenty past Rotorua down through Murupara over the hill toward Te Whaiti and turn right to Minginui. We could drive out and meet you at the Mangamate Falls DoC camp at Minginui and lead you in from there.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    Ok sounds good. I had a look and it says its 2:05 hours from me so be more like 1:45 hours.

    I will book it in with the lady tonight.....I have some leverage as she has been out fishing all day today and did an all nighter out with the girls Saturday! I've got this!!!!

    So incase I do pull this off, I think I'm best to just leave after work Friday and be there about 7.

    I have a small 1 man tent, will that be the business or whats the camp set up? Could zip our sleeping bags together Rushy?

    Far King brilliant. We have a right royal hunt in the happening.

    Guys can I suggest that closer to the time we confirm numbers and then I do a big shop for all the food required and then we just divvy up the cost of it? That way I could take charge of the cooking (we would eat like kings) and all you would need to bring food wise would be the snacking foods you want for out in the bush (and any booze for around the camp fire).
