It’s all very good and well read­ing Welling­ton­ista every day, and think­ing to your­self “hur­rah, I am an active part of Welling­ton! I am hip and young and down with the kids” — but what have you done for the com­mu­ni­ty late­ly? I’m not talk­ing about giv­ing to char­i­ty, or coach­ing a sports team, or any of that stuff. Oh no. I’m talk­ing about giv­ing up your thoughts and ideas — that and buy­ing us drinks. Well it just so hap­pens that today we’re going to pro­vide you with a chance to do both of those things, so pop on your hat of altru­ism, and here we go:

1. For the knowl­edge­able amongst you, local beard­ed man with a cam­era Blink is com­pil­ing a book of local knowl­edge, and he wants your help. Stop by his forums to share your ideas about cheap places to eat, stay and drink in Welling­ton (or any of the oth­er places in NZ that we like to pre­tend don’t exist).

2. For the gen­er­ous stalk­ers amongst you, Tom of Wellur­ban is organ­is­ing drinks for the peo­ple of Welling­ton-who-write-web­pages-and-like-to-drink. You can find more details on his site in three seper­ate entries, but the guts of the mat­ter is come to Boulot on Blair st from around 6pm, and look out for us. It’d be great if you intro­duced your­self as well, but if you’d like to sit in a cor­ner and send the tall fat girl drinks anony­mous­ly via the hott staff, that’s also a per­fect­ly valid option and we’d still respect you in the morn­ing.
