Movie Night: Overlord – Auckland – 17 November 2018

What

JJ Abrams, director of a couple of my favourite movies including the Cloverfield series, Star Trek, and Super 8, brings us a WWII movie with a twist. As if war wasn’t horror enough, what if there’s a supernatural element to it? Join the Auckland Horror Club to check it out!

**NOTE: This meetup is movie only and it will be the late show. Theatre to be determined. There is no restriction on number of people. We will also be going to dinner beforehand, but I will post that meetup the week of with the location and time.

What we’re about

Horror movie lovers rejoice! Have you been searching for people to share the enjoyment of sitting down and watching flicks from this infamous genre? Let’s get together to watch the good, the bad, and the ugly of all things horror! Feel free to post movie ideas, or anything else horror related that might be interesting.

“Cowboys” and Agile – A Project Managers worst nightmare, or is it? – Palmerston North – 29 November 2018

What

Sharon, a seasoned project manager from Massey will be the presenter at the next meetup.

Can Cowboy developers, an Agile methodology and Project Managers all exist in the same sphere? Some would say NO, I say yes.

Does the free-thinking lone developer, who is huddled away in a dark corner never to see the light of day still exist in this new world of Agile projects?

Can Agile bring a “Cowboy” into the 21st Century?

This is the rescheduled talk from September

As usual our hosts Objective will be sponsoring pizza

Out West Model Expo – Auckland – 17-18 November 2018

What

The Auckland Marklin Club presents a model expo for enthusiasts and all the family.

There will be 16 model train layouts from clubs throughout the region and from as far south as Bulls, making it the biggest train show in Auckland this year. Some layouts will be huge, spanning many metres and passing specially built scenes. The locomotives in operation range in size from a few centimetres to half a metre, reproducing the greatest machines of the world’s railways. Others will be small and intimate, table top size, with lots of fine detail. Children will be able to operate a table top train to see how it’s done.

Other types of modelling will be represented. The Auckland Meccano Guild will have a display. Mini-4WD vehicles will race in threes around a large circuit.

Trade stands will be there to supply modelling materials and enable any one to get started in their hobby. The Helensville Railway Museum will have a display.

Refreshments will be provided by Love Soup, with proceeds helping its charitable work in providing meals at community centres.

Pedestrian entry to the venue is from Te Atatu Road or from the carpark at the rear of the Centre. To get to the carpark, turn from Te Atatu Rd into Harbour View Rd at the roundabout, then take the first right into Sail Rock Rd.

Payment by EFTPOS or credit card will be accepted as well as cash.

You may have already been to one of our shows held at Waiuku, Devonport, Whangaparaoa and Westgate. This will be by far our biggest show yet.
