    Amusingly, this just popped up in my Facebook feed - http://www.boredpanda.com/amazing-home-interior-design-ideas/ with the sand one as the link picture.

    Some of those are genius! Definitely would not want to be a cat owner with the sandpit though :) Oh the book staircase is amazing.

    Dutchess if you go in that disguise I'll buy you your next book!


  • Registered Users Posts: 385 ✭✭Dutchess


    Tempting but I think I'll pass :p

    My height and accent would still make me quite identifiable anyway. I think doing the voice as well would ruin me pretty quickly:D

    If christian bale can somewhat get away with his batman voice you'll probably be grand :pac:

    Soooooo, anyone else up for a drink/coffee on Wed eve? What could be more inviting than a group of complete strangers meeting for the first time to discuss the merits of sandpits and Joanne (with and E) Harris?? :D

    Yes, just say when and where. :) I'm probably leaving Ireland soon, so any gathering would be nice before I leave.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,790 ✭✭✭confuseddotcom


    Oh lol sorry mailbox was full!! Should be space in there again now to send again. Oops sorry!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,065 ✭✭✭kissmequick


    Shall try this again! Bitta Bowling followed by a few Beerz, pass an evening shure. :) Please reply if interested and mention dates free or not free and will go from there.


  • Registered Users Posts: 261 ✭✭kevthecelt


    Yeah I'd be up for this. My girlfriend and I just moved here in January so would be great to meet some new people!


  • Registered Users Posts: 248 ✭✭TomJoe Wallace


    I suppose I've been living here 2 and a half months and I haven't made any friends!

    Being a broke student on placement doesn't help though!
    I'm up for the banter if everyone else is :P

    Sure let me know the story!


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,480 ✭✭✭Chancer3001


    I might be round for it


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,065 ✭✭✭kissmequick


    Sorry not sure when yet chancer, some Fri/Sat eve perhaps, it just depends on numbers and interest I guess so it's hard to tell!

    Have tried the people suggest dates they're free way but it didn't work out as far as I know! But maybe I should just suggest a date altogether, and see if people reply or will be available on that date then........?

    Is there any other activities / stuff to do that people can think of?! :)


    Well actually I think it's 6 that's needed for Bowling so another 1 / 2 peeps and we could have enough for a Lane?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,711 ✭✭✭Redhairedguy


    Best thing to do is just pick a date and stick to it. I've often found that you can't suit everyone, and it's an incentive for those that missed it this time to suggest times/venues/dates that suit them best, next time.

    I Deffo can't do weekends. And I work during the week. So midweek evening suit me best !

    Hi all,

    In the same situation with my boyfriend. We moved here around 6 months ago and cant seem to be making any friends. Would definitely be up for meeting up!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,070 ✭✭✭✭ Lillie Icy Rawhide


    I'd be up for bowling :) I'm kinda busy evenings towards the end of this week (Thurs -Sat) but apart from that I'm flexible.


  • Registered Users Posts: 261 ✭✭kevthecelt


    OK guys how about we lock down a date otherwise this could go on for a while :) How does bowling next Wednesday the 16th sound?


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 7,374 Mod ✭✭✭✭pleasant Co.


    In case you missed it, there'll be a beers either the 18th or 19th: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057244748


  • Registered Users Posts: 3 aureli33


    Hey guys! Bowling sounds good pn Wednesday. Where and what time?

  • Registered Users Posts: 248 ✭✭TomJoe Wallace


    Wednesday, I'll have driving lesson from 6:30 to 7:30

    So after would be great :) Anywhere really :D

  • Registered Users Posts: 15 Robert1782_


    Would anyone have any interest in a table quiz in coyotes bar in aid of childline on the 24th? Looking for 2 people to make up a table with a friend and myself, cheers.

    Hi guys, just moved to Galway with my bf and everything is going well work-wise, we really like the city but finding it kind of hard not knowing anyone here apart from each other... Did anything ever come of the meet up suggestions on this thread in the end? It seems to be so much harder and more intimidating to get out there and make new friends in your late twenties. Really missing having a few people to meet up with for drinks/chats on weekends.
