As our October Duck Soup night was dominated by rugby league and World Cup TV, it’s surprising that it will stand out as a ‘social’ highlight for me. I made a decision before I walked in to invite a couple of people to a Labour Weekend event I was attending and BOTH accepted that invitation.

We went offroading on 50cc scooters between Picton & Greymouth – totally out of my comfort zone but a fabulous opportunity to meet new friends and get to know others a little better.  The two Duck Soup guys I invited had a brilliant time and are both keen to do it all again next year.

I don’t think it matters WHAT the event is – it could be as simple as a movie or dinner – or more complicated (and expensive!) like the offroading challenge… the point is I did it and the social relationships I invested in really paid off.

Perhaps you could venture a little further than your normal social comfort zone and try something new….. check out www.itson.co.nz to see if an event takes your fancy and then start asking around for like-minded people to join you….

Duck Soup provides another opportunity for you to meet a few new friends in October.  We had some fun last month with Groove Collective, the band, and it was certainly a different dynamic.  This time we are back to talking – although you are welcome to get a few people together and plan on a night out dancing somewhere!  Meet at 623 In The City on Sunday 2 October from 7.30pm.
