    My cosine and 3 of his friends are coming over to Dublin from America this weekend (arriving Thursday leaving Monday night.) and I’m looking for suggestions as to what to do with them. They should be all 24’ish. I’ll probably just end up taking them to pubs and getting drunk but any better ideas would be much appreciated!

    Get involved in a fist fight, then when the cops come, you leggit. They get arrested and have to stay in the Joy for the summer. That'll learn them !!!!

    Yea but i kind of want to do something kind of Irish. No point in coming all the way over here and doing what you can do at home.

    Magnifique.


    Back on topic:

    There's not really much to do in Dublin (which doesn't involve getting hammered) which doesn't cost a fortune (and getting hammered costs loads too).

    Maybe hire a car and take to the hills, do the whole nature thing?

    id say that viking tour thing would be a laugh.

    also dunno of opening times etc but u cant really go wrong with a tour of the guinness brewery followed by a pint in their revolving restauant/pub in the sky.

    er it doesn't revolve. You obviously had far more than one pint!

    Always be prepared to hand over your wallet!

    Buy green trousers and walk around Temple Bar and ask if a random stranger knows where Limeriiiickeh is. :)
