    Steve, I know most everyone (including photos of fergal) apart from Heidi, so I'm also happy to volunteer? Between you and me we know most people, apart from ****bag (that name has to change) alexlyons and boldspirit so that should cover most, and we can keep an eye out for lonely spirits wandering around.

    I'm also happy to pm my number to people to text if they wish :)

    Cool, you're probably better for the job as I won't be there till later :)
    And on your last point Steve, you appear to missed that I am a lady, ladies never fart, we simply expel excess air :D Much like pigs sweat, men perspire, and ladies glow :D
    You were always a perfect lady when I sailed with you... never heard a bad word out of you on the foredeck :D

    Skerries

    Well I surely won't be volunteering my services, seeing as I barely know where Skerries is, never mind the pub!

    I know alexlyons, so if he shows up he'll recognise me. Sounds like we'll all manage to find one another somehow.

    Really looking forward to it!

    (Where IS the pub btw???)

    As per Steves directions below, it's actually hard enough to find, I'll ping you my number, just text as you are coming into Skerries on the train and we'll collect you :)

    TIs hard enough to find tbh, first time I went up there I missed it twice, as it's on a little street full of houses so you never think it's where it is

    Caroline the chef though is the real star, the food is just gorgeous, I hope you've arranged for us to have lots and lots and lots and lots of wings?

    And onion rings, and wedges, but mainly wings :D

    Them wings are good.

    Ah, you're very good! But if I can't navigate my way from the train station to a pub 10 minutes away, I should be giving my sailing certs back :D

    It's pay and display on street parking between 8.00 am to 6.00 pm. Ollie's is on a oneway street so as you come into Skerries form Dublin you go through the first set of traffic lights and take a right at the next then right again will bring you outside and you should have no problem getting a parking space.

    I can collect from the city centre and run back to the Southside after, so could pick up in town between 7 - 7.30 or whatever time suits people, so shout if anyone fancy's a lift out.

    I think they spiked my drink with G&T and then tried to rope me over to the dark side luckily the chicken wings socked up most of the poison and with the faint smell of exhaust fumes still in my nostrils I was able to hold on to the petrol-head in me,it was a close call and not something I would like to go through on my own again so next time I'm brining some backup to help fight the brainwashing......You should have seen the cut of my jib this morning :D
