A&A Beers! Friday, 8pm, 4th Sept 2009 - in The Duke

Dades

Right! A provisional date has been put forward:

Friday, 4th September 2009.

Having it on a Friday worked for people last time, and this gives the faithless four weeks notice to change their (clearly inferior) plans accordingly. So who's up for a bit a lively banter, followed by more lively (but slurred) banter?

The A&A Team

*Cue shouts of excitement and screams of anguish*

Genghiz Cohen

You heathens are all going to hell and you're not taking me with you.

*shouts of excitement and screams of anguish*

Zombrex

Cool, I may even make it this time*







*last time was full of hot girls right?

Dades

Sorry, it's the feast day of St. Ultan of Ardbraccan, so I'm washing my beard.

Weird, the thread posted before I had done the poll. o_O

More than you could shake a feathered stick at. I swear on the bible.

Finally, another chance to march under our war banner!

Burning in hellfire? So I believe.

Doctor DooM

DooM is always pleased by beers. However, he may be extremely busy that weekend.

ronbyrne2005

AA meeting so?

Zillah

Might I suggest that you swap mobile numbers to ensure you can find each other.

I've heard that's been a problem in the past.

Not bitter at all.

Anyway I'll be in Canada for another 9 months or so, so enjoy it, I'll successfully tag along some day. Well no, I'll probably be back around Christmas for a week or two so if there's one around then count me in.

It is standard OP in alot of forums for a mod/organiser type to bring something everyone can recognise (in the nocturnal forum, transformers or american psycho action figures, for BGRH carnation milk).

I suppose a few defaced bibles would be out of the question?



EDIT: I will be watching you Zillah, you cannot trust a Tremere.

I will do my best to attend this one. The only thing I know I have to do around that date is auditor training, and the odds of being held on a Friday night are small.

Thats actually a pretty good idea.

I don't get it.

Last outing we a plastic Rhinosaurus and monkeyfudge's monkey on the table!

any venue yet....i really think that is HAS to be in the church, mary street! is there a more fitting venue for an A&A beers, a former church turned into a bar (something much more fun)! :pac:

Oh yes, Rhinosaurus will be there. With any luck his 3 horned pal will show up.

Deliciously ironic as somewhere like The Church would be, the last time The Duke worked out great! You can score seats, actually swap legal tender for a pint, and not turn to Darwinism for breathing space on a Friday night.

That said, all ideas will be entertained.*

How about we just break into a church and steal the blood of Christ?

Dades

As long as it's not Chilean.

We'd need to break into a Catholic Mormon church for south American blood/wine.

Are we talking stegosaurus here or something from the book of revelations?

I'd like to say I'm suprised it was those two, but I'm not, seasoned boards beerians the both of them

That was somewhat of a travesty.
There will be other beers - I don't think any us of us are going to be "saved" any time soon.

hmm, hope to grace you if i'm living in dublin by then.

The first image of a spaghetti packet that google served me up had two monks on it -- must be a sign from his Noodleness.

Love to come. Moving back to Sligo at the end of August, though, so probably won't be able to...

you've stumbled onto a secret society of spagettit lovers who are sitting on evidence, that at the last supper, jesus spoonfed mary magdalence some pasta alla arrabiatta before whipping the disciples with spagetti that was so al dente it hurt bad.
this spawned a spin off cult self multilating monks who were convinced that they had to severely punish themselves with 100% uncooked durum wheat semolina in order to please the supreme pasta overlord

Coriolanus

You heathens are all going to hell and you're not taking me with you.

If his arrabiata was good enough, hell, I'd have gone down on him too! :pac:

Anyway, perhaps! Don't live in the city and lacking a car, things are awkward that way. But! Perhaps!

Ooh, I don't know yet... what would Pascal do?

Bugger.

Had been hoping to finally make it to a Godless Beers but I have just this past evening had my last drink until the evening of September 12th. This being fit lark is seriously cramping my social life.

Oh well, eat some babies for me.

Ickle Magoo

Ooh, I don't know yet... what would Pascal do?

Ach phooey, I'll be in Scotland...at a church wedding ironically enough...

If there are any multi-horned pals or monkeys out, I want to see the pics! :P

In fairness it was one of the smaller monkeys from my collection.

Enjoyed this a lot last time around. Shall do my best to be there again.

Genuinely sorry to hear it.
There was never going to be a date to suit everyone - the only thing we could do was give plenty of notice.
