    Ok normally these things would be held in the Oval on Abbey Street because they have a nice spot upstairs and they serve food until 9pm.

    So rather than just say its on in the Oval does anyone have any suggestions for where would be good? Keeping in mind we need to be able to hear each other and it would be a Saturday night.

    Ok, monkeyfudge ..... name some obscure bar?!

    How about the Oval on Abbey Street :D - o.k., seriously now - I think this is a good bar.

    How about a nice traditional Irish bar?

    There's always Lotts too... but I think they tend to have a pianist in there of a Saturday eve.

    Ok, The Oval it is!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 412 ✭✭dib


    Maybe an early evening Greet & Grub? Before the masses decend on Dublin city to consume, partially digest and then expel their Saturday night fill of drink, cheap fast food and debauchery?

    I think I have to be at a birthday party at about 21.00 or 22.00 in Clane so the earlier the better for me.

    I've got coursework to worry about, so I can't make it. I'm not going on a tangent at all, heh.

    Edit: And if that's the sort of attitude you're going to have, I'd rather not put myself through the stress of 10 hours of travel to get over there! :|


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 110 ✭✭Pantsless


    ill do my best to make it .


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    We'll have some non-boardsies there too. Lou, who's been on a couple of the trips is coming along.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 994 ✭✭✭kshiel


    Can ye guys recommend anywhere descent to stay near the pub?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,165 ✭✭✭ladybirdirl


    Ok I'm in - I want to see the crystal 'donking' incident:rolleyes:

    Can we not go somewhere southside? What about somewhere nice like cafe en seine or sam sara - you know the type, overpriced beer, nice looking women and interesting looking men?

    Or I'd even venture to Lotts if I could remember how to get there - I actually think that place is cloaked and moves around or something

    And by greet and grub will there actually be grub? I always end up starving after drinks. If we went to Monkeyfudge's lotts bar we could go to that interesting(and I use the term loosely) cafe we went to the night of the ghost bus?

    And can I greet all the single available men - can i can i can i?

    Lotts is great (have been a few times since) but very load once the lads start playin music. As for cafe en Seine ... its full of assholes, slappers and farmers!

    Oval serves food until 9ish and you can hear each other talk - any other place that can tick those boxes is good with me, and Abbey Street isnt exactly very northside now is it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,165 ✭✭✭ladybirdirl


    Anywhere beyond the bottom of grafton st is DNS!!:D

    Oh yeah forgot about the band in Lotts - ok scratch that. And yes I realise CES is full of assholes but would that not be the point, to take the piss entirely!

    The oval is full of GAA heads - do you not remember the other night we were there when that Kilkenny supporter thre his shoe at the light fitting?:confused:

    Messr maguires?:cool:

    Can I be the mascot so? I'll even dress up as a.....I was going to say witch but I don't need to dress up for that (hehehe)

    Hey the real witches on here may take offence to that ... what out for unexplained pains!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,044 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    It would not bother me but it is infact against the law to pretend to be a witch.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    I know I did 78 citizen arrests around the end of last October ... bastardin kids!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,165 ✭✭✭ladybirdirl


    I would be doing it as a mark of respect of course!


    ok perhaps I'm having a blonde moment but is it really against the law......that wud be so cool!!


    So is it decided on the oval - we need to let kshiel know where's good to stay around there?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 23,216 ✭✭✭✭monkeyfudge


    Well Issacs hostel isn't far from there.

    There are also affordable Bewleys and Jurys hotels in the vacinity. Wynns would be the closest hotel though, but it might be a bit pricier.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 994 ✭✭✭kshiel


    Thanks guys, I have checked out a few around the oval and most were booked out but I will find something today and just book it for myself and Lou. Oval it is then for sure?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,247 ✭✭✭✭6th


    Yep, Oval it is.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 994 ✭✭✭kshiel


    Dont know whats going on in Dublin that weekend but nearly all the hotels are booked solid. Did manage to get one in upper O' Connell Street in the end. So See ye all on Sat 3rd Mar.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,907 ✭✭✭LostinBlanch


    Oval eh? What time? Or are we supposed to divine this? Seeing the forum that's in it after all? :rolleyes:
