    Hi all... I've got a work night out coming up in a few weeks on a Thursday night...

    The usual ideas have been put about... Meal and Drinks etc... But I and a few other think that this is a bit boring.. So we've been asked to come up with a few ideas...

    We have 40 euro per head to spend, so there is quite a few things that are possible with that sort of cash...

    Has anyone been on any unusual work nights out or with a group of people for example...

    Its going to be in Dublin. City centre or other locations in dublin are ok...

    Thanks for any ideas...

    /edit: woohoo 700 posts...

    How many of you are there? If its a big crowd you could organise a Casino night....We had one last year - was in Lansdowne rugby club (I think). Absolute laugh.

    Theres about 20. Its only our team, rather than the whole office...

    Casino night sounds good but you might need a bigger crowd for that... and no doubt there will be a few peolpe who wont turn up..

    MY last job did a fancy dress, thought it was great laugh renting out a costume and making a show of each other,
    though nbowling is good aswell, that was our last social, then off for some pub gruba dn some pints. tis good idea to get a few drinks into yea before bowling, bowling got the older crowd to go, they never liked the idea of just renting a function room and all the young people going and getting twisted at a free bar so they kinda gave up on going..
