Thank you all for checking in & for the kind words.

Had a walk around today, even had a sneaky peek in the big hall, said a quick Hello to Meghan & actually Travis from Autogeek got me first & now owns a Details - Buff - Polish - Wax New Zealand Cap. Met up with my roommate Don (fly07sti) hung out, had lunch & chilled out at a local cigar store for a while. We think we spotted ronkh57 while we were out having dinner but weren’t too sure & my Mum said not to talk to strangers so I couldn’t confirm.

The convention centre, where it’s all gonna happen for the weekend.

Inside.

Looking forward to tomorrow.

Aaryn,

Thanks for doing this. I feel some what connected to the Detail fest from far away. Appreciate you for taking time posting this for all of
us who weren't able to attend.

Thanks...

Do you know what's growing in that field? Just wondering if it's something I'm going to see in the supermarket this morning.

There are hundreds of vineyards in our wee town so I couldn’t be 100% sure whose this is but judging by location I would guess Whither Hills Marlborough & it will be a Sauvignon Blanc.
