Eng Ball

pimpy_c

The Eng Ball - Possibly the greatest ball of all time and certainly not just for engineers. Here are some details about it:

Date: 10th February 2006
Venue: Citywest Hotel
(Buses departing from the Centre Club and returning)

Posters will be up soon and the price will be e60. Also there will be a tux rental discount

I'd just like to know if any boards members will be going? It's one helluva night!

irlrobins

ah eng ball..... i remember the days when it was in the grand hotel in malahide....

it was not a good night unless there was at least a inch of vomit covering the floor of the toilets...

Red Alert

yes i'll be going

DirkVoodoo

Ill be there for sure, 4th year engineers i hope you will ALL be there!

I think there is a plan to get a few rooms so we can make it a 24 hour affair, or at least last-engineer-standing.

Anyway, to all who didn't go last year, twas a great nite and city west is a decent place to have it, better than leopardstown anyway...although midnight racing around the track...ahhh memories

turned up to that with a friend by chance, BY CHANCE I tell you, didn't know what the hell was going on at first but it looked like a lot of fun.

Why are there no afters tickets? I'd like to go but paying over the odds for some mediocre food and a trip to the other side of Tallaght doesn't sound like a recipe for fun!

v_corningstone

hey pimpy_c - that eng soc website - rarely works - whats the deal with that?

v_corningstone

well mr roger - if B+L ball does it for u - im not sure if ur entirely welcome at the engball - u and ur type can stick to ur own!! -ah no the more the merrier!
