• Sunday, 19 July 2026
• 10 am–midday

Venue

Exterior of Scoundrel

Scoundrel is a bar and eatery on St Asaph Street. We will have booked a table under the name "Wikipedia".

• If driving, St Asaph is a one-way street so you need to approach from Fitzgerald Avenue (to the east).
• If biking, there are fixed bike hoops just down the road outside Space Academy and ordinary "wheel-bender" racks by the front door of Scoundrel.
• If taking the bus, most of the east<->west routes go nearby including the 3 and the 80. Otherwise the Bus Interchange is a 15 minute walk away.
• WiFi password is beans375 for Scoundrel Customers

What have we been up to?

Edit with VisualEditor

• David Palmer//cloventt ^(talk): Not a lot of wiki work unfortunately. I threw together a stub for Danny Go!, did some current events updates here and there. Looking for a new project to sink my teeth into! Have a few ideas already.
• ChristchurchHistorian: Just general editing. No new projects on at the moment.
