TimShadboltfan27 3,985 Report post Posted February 14, 2017 I have tailor made this thread for discussing meet ups in the southern country, so when decided i can make a single post and leave the chat for this one. March is coming soon, idea was tossed around to head to ranfurly and visit that dude with the sweet shed and nice things. Tis an hours drive from alex, with plenty of awesome country tavs to stop at along the way for a shandy. Any other suggestions? Warm regards Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zeb 54 Report post Posted February 19, 2017 Does someone here know the guy from Ranfurly? I haven't had a good look since they put the fence up but I'm sure there's more stuff there. I'm free most of March and would be keen to head up for something like that Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi808 11,025 Report post Posted February 19, 2017 I super keen but am in the Corromandel for a wedding the weekend of the 11th March. Keen to go pick up Nuck's princess from Ranfurly. There is also a blue lake on the way(ish) with a haunted hotel. Keen. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimShadboltfan27 3,985 Report post Posted February 19, 2017 yeah i have met him before, visited his place, he's a good dude. i will get in touch with him to jack it up if enough interest from the other jokers. would the following weekend (18th) work for everybody? keen for haunted shandys tbh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi808 11,025 Report post Posted February 19, 2017 I think we should try and go here either before or after Ranfurly princessing. Haunted hotel, lovely blue lake and more importantly a pub. I've never been there so it could be shit. http://www.fourcorners.co.nz/new-zealand/detail/index.cfm/2011/11/st-bathans-an-old-pub-a-ghost/ Lets lock in the 18th. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sound like he isn't buying stuff any more and everything outside is for sale. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Zeb 54 Report post Posted February 21, 2017 Oh snap, there's a few cars outside I wouldn't mind taking off his hands and I wouldn't have far to take them... What kind of coin does he want for the ones outside? In for the 18th Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimShadboltfan27 3,985 Report post Posted February 21, 2017 he's not completely oblivious to what theyre worth, but isn't asking trademe barn find spec prices... will call him tomorrow and gauge his interest 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
