Sup y'all, we're interested in organising a medium-to-large Halloween party at our place (getting in early to reserve the date). Looking at this point to gauge interest. Will be a competition for best costume. BYO booze, food provided. BBQ if warm enough.

Halloween is on a Monday this year, so will be on the weekend prior (October 29-30).

OK everyone check your facebook e-vite thingies. The invitation is more or less open to anyone, so feel free to add more guests to the list. Hoping for good weather or we'll need to cram a few people into our little house.

Chris D's picture

Spoke with Mike the other day - he'll be here.

BTW just a couple of reminders: invitations are more or less open if anyone wants to bring anyone else. Dress ups are strongly encouraged/required. Prizes will be given for best dressed dude and best dressed gal.

If anyone ones needs a bed that night- we have a spare room and only a 5 min walk away.

Ash, I will need to prepare my costume at your house for about 3hours befor the party. I may also need to be carried to Chris'!

James's picture

Thats why your driving me down Laughing out loud

Martin's picture

LOL 3 hours. I really want to see what Dave's wearing.

Chris D's picture

Yeah I'm drawing a blank here. I think he's all talk.

Brad's picture

When are you heading down Dave? Friday/Saturday?

Michelle's picture

Brad's picture

Saturday is the current plan, can I book a room Ash?

James's picture

Me too ash(so I can spoon dave!) also I promise not to let dave walk dog poo through your bed!!

yeah thats cool guys- we've got a spare bed and air beds. And my dog is bigger than Chloe so the dog poo is a lot bigger, oh yeah we have a dog.

oh and dave/james its emmas birthday on the friday- were going out for dinner with friends etc- y'all are more than welcome if you choose to come down on the friday night.

Brad's picture

A couple of quick questions about the party. Firstly are there going to be any easily offended christians there and secondly does anyone have any bright orange pants I can borrow?

Chris D's picture

1. I sure hope so - I love offending Christians.

2. Negative.

On the matter of sleeping/beds, we also have at least one good air bed, and at least one other than you wont know leaks until the morning when you're on the hard floor. Plus a couple of couches and plenty of floor room.

Spent all day on the costume, realized I didn't have the required sewing skills so did what any respectable male would do. Substituted the sewing machine with a glue gun and 40 odd sticks of glue!

Chris D's picture

LOL I love it.

I've got Friday off so will be heading down in the afternoon-ish. Brad get the day off also. Ash, will see you for dinner and will need a place to stay if that's alright

yeah thats cool, give us a call when your on your way down.

James's picture

Chris D's picture

I'm gonna take Friday afternoon off.

Brad's picture

So, now that I've found out that Scott and Stacey are arriving on Thursday arvo, we're gonna try and get down Thursday evening instead. Did I hear 3 day party?

Chris D's picture

Haven't heard from Scott - is he coming to the party?

Brad's picture

Chris D's picture

Confirmed Scott is coming.

Scott's picture

Hey guys, can confirm that I will be there from Thursday onwards. Will be in rotorua for james' Wedding, but then back for tauranga time. Will be good to catch up again. Stacey will be there too.

Now that I know the standard, I'm preparing to destroy it next year. Planning has already begun, and it will be epic.
