Nothing firm, we might be moving into our awesome new offices that weekend so our current shithole might be empty and perfect for the fest, but if you have any other options we should explore those too :)

I have no options unfortunately and my man cave won't be ready to do the job till January or so. Hagley park beer picnic with all our gear? Won't be very loud which is pretty much against all gearfest protocol.

I can't even offer my man cave at the moment as it's crammed full of junk in packing boxes and other house stuff since we cleared everything out to get the EQC work done a while back, and true to form haven't got round to putting everything back (can't even see where most of it comes from, let alone goes back to).

Shame we can't get into any of the new warehouses/factory type sites that seem to be springing up around the edges of town, not that many of them seem to have power yet, but some of them out by the airport are flipping huge

Hey guys, I think we should postpone this til the new year, looks like we'll be moving the day of the gearfest and I'll be involved in that so no chance of using here for it :(
