I'm arriving Friday afternoon, I'll probably hang out at the Uni Halls if<br>
there isn't anything else to do. My flight is scheduled to arrive at 14:35, I<br>
can probably expect to be at the Uni Halls by 16:00. If anyone wants to<br>
arrange a place to meet then send me an email. Of course if your email is<br>
later than about 11:00 NZ time then I won't receive it unless Wifi is<br>
available as I'm not planning on buying a NZ SIM.<span><font color="#888888"><br>
