[Chat] Parking options for those driving from out of town

[Athol Wilson]

Hi Ewen,
Normally at this time of year Auckland will be pretty quiet (most come 
back on the 20th)  and I would have thought student parking wouldn't be 
a problem. It might also be possible to arrange for a weekly rate.
We live 6km from the venue and my son and I will be using the bus - 
about $3.00 each way.
Also our particular street is no exit, pretty secure and mainly empty 
during the day (although several commuters park at the bottom each day 
and take the bus) so that would be another option if anyone wants to 
take it up. (I could check everything was ok each day as well if I knew 
which belonged to LCA attendees.)
