Lets All Go To The Pub. (Dublin (At First))

Fajitas!

Simple as.

Not tonight, mind. Hows about the week after this one? Or the week after that?

Seeing as how the meal worked quite well, but some people had to drive after, or had to take photographs of some football match or something that didn't really matter in the grander scale of things (Munster should have won :mad: ).

So, suggestions on where to go? Generally, city centre is handiest for all. Close to a kebab shop for the way home too

Edit: Oh... A reason. Erm. So we can put a face to a username... or indeed a name to a username. And... chat about gear. And techniques...

Sounds very good to me. Just say when/where.

The Mercantile on Dame st isn't bad. Kebab, burger and pizza all within a few stumbles, as well as taxi ranks.

Fajitas!

Yep, the Mercantile has been used for a few of the bigger Boards Beers - It does get INCREDIBLY packed on any sort of big night though.

Sin É can be good craic, especially if we grab the basement early enough.

YogiBear

Pub??? :rolleyes: If I'm in town on the night I'll pop in to make a fool of myself!
Monday already, where does the weekend go to? Nice weather today though which was nice!

Rojo

I always say I'll go to these and end up being busy... So, I may be there. :P

Fajitas!

You're coming, or I'll post photos of you as a pap

This Saturday would be ideal.

Agreed!

Calina

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO not Saturday. I have to go to a party on Saturday night which already means I can't go to a kite competition in Donegal on Saturday or go surfing in Cork on Saturday.

Make it Friday and I'm in, and considering bus instead of car. Tisn't often I go drinking.

make it Friday, gwan gwan gwan

elven

Drinking? Yay!

Hugh_C

Saturday is Communion Party day for loads of people with kids or friends with kids, Friday is better.

You're not all child-free are you?

Hugh_C

Oh yeah, there is no pub other than the Stag's Head, ever.

Just the lucky ones

I can do Friday if that's better for everyone.

ThOnda

Calina - the forecast for the waves is miserable for this weekend, again :-( Don't worry, we'll catch up :-)
If I am not a driver, I would like to go for tea and red lemonade.

bovril

hmmm Friday.. I can come for a while but I cannot drink. Have stupid thing on at 8am Sat morning.. is 7ups considered DRINKING???

Calina

In my book, yeah. Most of my life involves 7-Up.

except Friday night, possibly.

Oh there'll be a camera. And a flash. And a fisheye.

Just nowhere near Limerick. We'll start off with one in Dublin anyways, Cork next maybe?

I take photos in heels often.. no point letting them go to waste like! :cool:

ThOnda

High heels look nice independently from place, but it depends who wears them.
Are there some restaurants with (paved) back-gardens in Dublin area?

That's true.. and what you wear them with. I don't wear heels too high daytime though, can't be bothered with the pain!

Fajitas!

Whoa - Restaurant? Heels?


This is getting classy.

Tom, is that horrible Hollandia filth. It's beer though. If you're drinking Bavaria, you won't mind too much!

RoryW

cant make this weekend as away so enjoy wherever you end up

elven

What about the bull and castle that we were in for the BGRH meet? Would you get a seat in there, if there wasn't tables booked?

And does this mean it's definitely friday night?

Fajitas!

Not this friday!!

The week after would be much much better tbh.

I'll only be lucky if I get a shot of one. Fingers crossed. If I do manage to get a shot of one I am going to try and catch it and bring it home with me

DeVore

The front of the Bull and Castle is reservable (or the back). Its also a nice pub too if we want to drink after we eat. I dont mind when but we need to strike a date soon to give plenty of warning!

Where are you going to find puffins? Why weren't we invited?

Fajitas!

Bull and Castle gets a thumbs up from myself... And Elven I reckon... Good food and beer!

We don't even have to step outside the door for food.

Going down Wexford way (PM me if you require any more details) It's a personal task I set myself this time last year.

Back on topic, now the venue is sorted, when is it? Another few days debate there!!

Fajitas!

Ok... Just so we have plenty of notice, how's about Friday the 30th or Sat the 31st?

Bank holiday?

Might not suit some, but would probably be my best chance of making one of these.
