    They posted on here ages ago but haven't really been on so I thought I'd at least mention them coming along. I'm predicting I'll need a good night out anyway given the long ass weeks back at work xD

    Can't beat Sweetmans porter! I have not been to a boards meetup before, will there be a little sign on the table?!

    Ash885 could you try and organise a sign please?

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Any excuse to get my glue gun and my handy clipart ready.

    But yeah I'll fashion something, fear not. It'll look pretty dire but I'm sure as Bonnie says the coy looking people will be signage enough ^^

    I'll post a pic of it beforehand anyway and where we are in the pub on the day. (if one remembers)

    Was only joking about the arts and crafts :D

    I printed that last time and it done the trick. So just a logo.

    I've got something on earlier in the day which may result in me not coming, but I'm new to Dublin so may as well start attending these now!

    Ye don't need to keep quoting the mates bit. They'll show if they're free but wouldn't be depending on them, they've ben fairly inactive on these forums.

    Anyway countdown is on folks!

    It's just come Saturday I'll look like either Billy no Mates or a lonely Quasimodo in the corner haha.

    Again though, a little call to those between minds about whether to attend and might have missed some of the spiel. Even if you can't make a full night of it, as I'm sure many can't, even to pop in for a pint or a 7up and a little chat could be great craic. It's a really laid back, relaxed night and you'll get out of it as much as you put in. Previous threads show it's a great to make new friends whether gay/bi/trans/male/female.

    So it's meet from 10pm onwards?

    Ash885
    Registered Users Posts: 639 ✭✭✭Ash885


    Well I'll hope to be there, here's hoping, from 7.30/8.00pm onwards. I can't gurantee people will be still there from 10 onwards if it's too noisey, crowded, **** craic. But I'll keep this thread updated for the whole night (soberity issues may be a problem).

    I've checked the website and I remember last meetup we went, there wasn't major issue with seating. I'll pop them a little email and give a suggested number but I can't see a problem if we get a good few bums on the seats early on the night.

    Just in a random café printing off the world's worst sign for tonight. Will be a small sign posted with Boards on it but realistically it'll be covered in Carlsburg the second I get there haha

    Will update the seats when I finally make it into town. Come one, come all. Hoping to be there around 7.30/8ish
