    I'd say ye should do a mystery tour. Get someone with an Artic truck, load the container on the back up with food and drink, and get absolutely pissed as it randomly drives around the country. Then, when people start to pass out , you can leave them in whatever county the mystery truck happens to be in. Last one to make it back to the starting point (in the back of the truck) gets to sleep in their own bed :D

    I have a C1 licence ... know where I can get a truck ?

    The folks in the dublin city forum discussed this recently, albeit briefly, and the Karma bar seems to have some possibilities at €3 a pint
    +1 Been there before. Not too bad a place and the porter drinkers seemed happy enough and you know what they're like;). It's quite small though AFAIR

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    I refuse point blank to go to any beers in the Woolshed. It's the greatest hole of a place, plus they have karaoke. :mad:

    I have to admit, I found the Woolshed a bit of a hovel.

    Plus, I swear they gave me Cheap Crap when I asked for Heineken. :o

    And somebody had me drinking Jim Beam and coke, FROM A CAN!!! WTF???

    Come to NZ. I know a bar that does pints for $4 (it's about €1.70!)

    Failing that - isn't Doyles cheap and has the upstairs place? or has it got expensive now since my Trinity days.

    I suggest we all join the Defence Forces/ pretend we're going out with DF members/ take over Kilbride camp in the mountains/sneak into Cathal Brugha Barracks in Rathmines and head for the Mess (Military term: Mess= beer establishment!) :D

    Pints with a 2 euro in the price....

    That said, if that don't work the previous suggestions may work....

    Checks credit card. :D

    I'd be up for it, doesn't bother me where we go as I missed Dusseldorf. :(

    Also must get to Dominion. Been meaning to go for quite some time. Dorans or Fibbers would be great.

    Ok, Turks Head is out.

    €5.20 a pint after 7:00pm, plus they wouldn't give me a small bottle of White wine to take home for herself. Plus the place was pretty dead as I was leaving at 22:50.
    Not impressed, tbh.

    We had a beers in the Bull and Castle last year, and tbh, we were treated pretty poorly by management. Especially considering the number of people that turned up.

    Oh, and drunken posting on the bus, ftw. :o

    So BGRH managed to organise a piss up in a German brewery, this should be easy. I've been urged to try to get the ball rolling on this by someone who doesn't regularly post in BGRH. It might put a bit of life back in the forum, which is what we all want. So shall we make a plan?

    There is a fine fish & chip establishment not 100 yards from this very boutique.

    Now this is a plan. All it needs is a date.
