    Hi

    There are a few of us who now live in England...We are really keen to attend the reunion but none of the dates above suit.

    Is it possible to organise something later in March or to add more dates to the list? This will give us the opportunity to organise flights etc.

    Thanks
    Elaine Clarke

    Hi Elaine

    Really sorry but the dates here were picked so as to avoid clashes with other bigger events i.e Valentines day , school mid terms , Major sporting events, Paddys day etc. And in giving 5 dates over 3 different weekends its probably true to say most will be able to work around them although I do understand as is in your case that it just doesnt suit. Time scales have to be put on these things otherwise it would go on forever and it would end up never happening. Due to the fact that we do have to confirm a date the poll will close on the last day of January. Hope you can make it.

    Ed

    Let's hope 6th Feb doesn't win the poll then.

    If I booked flights home now for 21st Feb or 7th March it would probably cost me about £50.

    If I book at the end of Jan when the poll closes I will be looking at about £120.

    If it's the 6th of Feb and the poll closes on 31st Jan I'm looking at about £500 to fly home.:(

    As in Moses?

    If so, I can't speak for anyone else here, but personally I'd rather ride a bike with no saddle around Ireland than spend a night in the company of that man.

    All teachers both past and present are more than welcome, infact it is to be encouraged.

    No hang ups.

    I can admit I was a little fecker in school and I think the teachers at Marks showed some great patience with me. Personally I would love to see some of my old teachers, McHale, Bohan et all

    On the other hand I only have a gripe with one teacher from my whole time, Mr Ryan. I cannot abide anyone, whether it be in school or the workplace, singling out someone and picking on them. I had no time for the man back then and time has not changed that fact.

    Ok. As of 2pm today Friday the 30th its level pegging between the 21th of Feb and the 7th of March. If nobody else votes then it will be called on the date which had the most votes for the longest. So as of this moment its going to be the 21th of Feb. You have been warned ;)

    Or you could call it on the date that gives us people who live overseas time to organise a trip home ;)

    Have you not taken the hint yet :D. Only joking. Democracy at work mate. All you have to do is get the others to vote for the later date. 10 hours and counting.....

    Anyone has who votes for the 7th March henceforth gets a free drink from me at the reunion* :D




    *(providing it wins the vote that is as I probably won't be there to buy one if the other day wins)

    I think this makes sense. If the 'democracy' calls it evens then anything that helps the overseas contingent should be the deciding factor.



    Mine's a Heineken JOC ;)

    Only 3 pints Mr Butler, only 3.

    Ryainair are currently doing flights for £5 return inc taxes in March, by my calculations I'm still about £250 up.

    Democracy works. :D
