    What would people think of some sort of meet up? I know the other sections of boards do it but I can't make it to Dublin most of the time... So would anyone be interested?

    This came up before. I think the Christmas beers were meant to be in on in Collins in Dooradoyle.

    I dont know if it ever actually occured.

    I'd definately be up for something. Could do with a good night out in Limerick, haven't had one in ages.

    Myself and An File usually try and organise a Limerick Beers, loads of people say they are going to show up but everyone says they cannot make it like the day before its on.

    Well I'll be up for it! Will we try to suggest a date and time?


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,149 ✭✭✭✭Berty


    At the Motors Forum Meet(non drinking) the same thing happens. You start out with 20 and usually around 8 turn up but still 8 people is a good amount for a few drinks.

    99er, Limerick Dude and I have twice tried to organise a Limerick Beers. On both occasions we were the only 3 who showed up. The Christmas Beers never happened at all. I'd be delighted to be involved in a meet-up if more than 3 people actually showed up, but I know Limerick Dude won't be around so that chances of that are slim...

    I was thinking, going for a drink or two in the Locke bar on the 1st of July? We could ask the UL and LIT forum also....

    I've never been to Tom Collins bar, but I wouldn't mind if it's on in there! I'll put up a poll and see what people decide!

    Here's the people I presume are going:

    Burial
    PolarIce (I'll make him)
    Sgt Hartman
    Rino87
    elmolesto
    dellas1979
    Berty (I think)
    An File (I think)
    Birdie086 (If its on in Collins Bar)

    Anyone else I'm forgetting?


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,149 ✭✭✭✭Berty


    I will not be in Limerick on Wednsday night, not even in the country actually. :(


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭Birdie086


    Somewhere Else
    I voted tom collinss without seeing the option for change the date.
    A change of date might suit better.


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,438 ✭✭✭Sgt Hartman


    Tom Collins' is a good bar but I'm only in Limerick the weekends so I wouldn't make it on a Wed nite:(


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭Birdie086


    Somewhere Else
    Who is up for a bit of Monday night Madness???

    Will we change it to next Friday? I don't think alot of people will go on Wednesday...


  • Registered Users Posts: 5,721 ✭✭✭elmolesto


    I cant make it friday:o


  • Registered Users Posts: 817 ✭✭✭Burial


    Can't Make It
    Arghhh!!!!!!!!!!

    Lol! Ok. I think I'm giving up organising this...


  • Registered Users Posts: 51,156 ✭✭✭✭bazz26


    This is why these things never really work out on this forum. Not enough people interested in the first place and those that are up for it usually cannot all make it on the same night.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,435 ✭✭✭Birdie086


    Somewhere Else
    It would be woth it though - any excuse for a few beers ha ha. Maybe if we invited the Limk county we might drum up alittle more interest. Even if only a few turned up - what harm, more drink for those who show face


  • Registered Users Posts: 817 ✭✭✭Burial


    Can't Make It
    Alright so, is Friday/Sunday a good enough time, and if so, where? I'd suggest Saturday but I'm going to a 21st then...


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,097 ✭✭✭✭zuroph


    fridays out for me anyway, T rooms 6th birthday, time to party!


  • Moderators Posts: 51,720 ✭✭✭✭Delirium


    Change The Date!
    Can't do much this week/ weekend as I've things that have been organised for a while. But definitely would be interested in a meetup anytime after that.

    Would be nice to not have to trek to Dublin for a beers for a change:)

    If you can read this, you're too close!
