    A brief post regarding the accommodation options for FoF3. Waiuku doesn't have a a huge amount to offer, and for those of you that stayed there last year, you will already know whats available.

    I have listed the options below further down on this post. Please don't just jump to the list yet.

    We have already booked out the entire Waiuku Motel (except for one room already taken) for this years event (Thurs-Sat nights). This was done to ensure that we get it as a central hub (along with the pub obviously) and that everyone has a fair shot and people don't get greedy with the rooms.

    If you are interested in one of these rooms then please PM @dickwebb and one can be allocated. You will then be put in touch with the Waiuku motel to confirm your booking, deposit etc and you pay them directly. You must be entered (and paid) to be able to book a room.

    Also, if you have any feedback from last year on the accommodation options, and would like to share, then please feel free to do so.

    For those of you concerned about security of skis etc, @Flan has already offered a secure locked yard in Waiuku if needed.

    Finally, don't be frightened about missing out on the Waiuku motel which is within walking distance of the pub. The Kentish now has a free courtesy van. Choice!!!
