Change of plans for Friday's run. I have something on Friday now so will do it Thursday. Meet at school at 12:15 or at Ferry at 12:40. Be back at Lyttleton at 5:30 or at school by 6pm
I can now make it seeing as it is on Thursday! I think I am on the way from school to Lyttelton so would I be able to be picked up on the way? I can come down to port hills road and would wait at the intersection of port hills and avoca valley road. Would that suit? Thanks!
