Boards beers electric picnic!

I can imagine that thread - "We can't have it then, XXXXX is playing at XXXXX!" - well, basically that repeated ad naseum

nobodythere

Would be up for a quick meet up at picnic also.

danniemcq

I'm new to Galway and new to boards (where has it been all my life!!).

Would love to meet up with some new people in Galway so in the words of Bush "bring it on" - where do ye normally go drinking or does that have to be put to a vote as well?

toxick

Well at least 3 of us on this thread, and probably most of the ones on the 'bus to the electric picnic' thread.

Quit your bitchin young 'un! When I was your age, we'd work all day, then go to boards beers all night! In the snow, with holes in our shoes!

I can't because I HATE you all

Is that some kind of exclusive party or it's open for all Boards maniacs?

ethernet

Friday is the best of a bad lot, methinks. Happy to go to anywhere in the general Dominick St. area.

minxie

nobodythere

Its open to anyone, the more the merrier. We're all identifiable by square eyes I'm sure...

Yay, that's great! Hope I can come.. Just pick some location and right time.

Anima

Cool, where abouts?

chrussell

I wonder if i can make it, i'm back home but i might have to be down on saturday. How do i recognise everyone? or will everyone bring a laptop so we can post where we are in the pub....or is that just silly...lol really how will i know

I can just imagine about ten heads walking around the pub looking very sheepishly at each other not sure whether to say anything or not. Then someone asks when standing at the urinal and causes some poor randomer to flee the vicinity barely zipping up............

chrussell

this is what im thinking... I'm sure there have been boards beers before maybe one of the more experienced could drop a line

kayos

How to spot people at a boards beer? Its easy someone is bound to have a internet/gaming related t-shirt on, most will have glasses and the conversation will be about the benefits of a open source operating system vs windows.

Failing that just listen for the words "yore ma"

cornbb

We'll arrange to have a distinctive hat or cocktail or decapitated head or something on the table so people can identify us...

jesus ur so negative there prob great people..... any how public apoligy for being a prick the last day ..sorry... im going to the rugby if it aint pissin down but ill get ya a perscesco or what ever that fizzy ****e is u drink in the local bf blue note

tristanc

Maybe we should go for somewhere less crowded - Blue Note may be near impossible to find people on a Friday night.

How about the Salt House - the little BierHaus-lite place where the Weigh Inn use to be? Ie empty enough to find people, near enough to Dominick St to wander else where once we have critical mass/they stop serving.

axiom32

gpo thats for leger
better not start changing places now cos it will end in tears

skelliser

Mcalindens?

cornbb

McAlindens aint a bad idea. As tristan said we just need someplace we can all get together and then go from there. Who's coming along anyhoo?

axiom32

well not being over forty or fat i might head into meet a certain person..lol:rolleyes:

tristanc

McAlindens works for me - we had it there last go around if memory recalls, and it was exceptionally easy to find people. Plus they have one of the best pints of Guiness in the city IMHO. And yes I know that doesn't count for much coming from a yank.

I'll def be there at the beginning, but will likely feck off to a birthday/goodbye about the time everyone has the Roisin or Massimos debate.

G U ought to post a pic! but how right you r - am negitive and besides only talk to great beautiful people

It'll be a 50/50 mix of internet blokes and internet girls. (Translated to real-life, that means it'll be 95% guys).

axiom32

i'd say ul find that there will be four max and as seen above the time has not being arranged and the place seems to be changing....
so i will be at the bar of McAllindens at 9pm....then the Salthouse by 9:30.....beirhaus 4 10.....blue note 10:30....
if no contact ill p**s off home for 11.....or maybe not seeing if i drink to make those times ill be nicely merry

those on the thread "...dating in Galway...." take note i'm male and single

minxie

right... am working again tonight
so ...... wheres it on????

Thought as much - have a wedding to go to anyway- have a blast guys and drink loads!

chrussell

does boards beers turn into boards shorts -> boards dancing -> boards find the sluttiest chick in the nightclub -> boards hungover, trying to get rid of the ugly chick from the night before.... or is it like 4 pints and everyone leaves by 11??
