    I'd like to throw a big shout out to everyone who braved the sea of social paranoia and turned up last night.

    Our meet would put one of the Dublin meets to shame.

    So many people turned up I didn't get a chance to talk to all of you :(

    Bring on the next one !

    ps. thank me!

    I'm always in this forum and didn't even know about this... Trust me, if I had went, your nights would have been just that bit more fun.

    How did you NOT know, we had it as a sticky, a thread, here and in the Ladies Lounge and it was mentioned various other threads :) ?
    Anyways, next one ye can all come :)


  • Posts: 17,378 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    I really don't know... Just just skipped past it every time.
    Couldn't have went anyway but would have sent a life size cardboard cutout of me just for effect.

    Next time :) It was really turned out well, we were worried it would be quiet and awkward (I regretted booking a large table as soon as I went in) but then we were pushed for space at the end. Roll on the next one I say!!


  • Posts: 17,378 ✭✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Just seen the sticky for the first time there.. Cottage is great for things like that, we had a work party in there before and it was really good.

    Any scandel from the night?

    A night out left to chance is often the most enjoyable.

    Glad last night was such a success! trust my luck to move to Dublin and theres an epic Galway Ladies beers! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 511 ✭✭✭hyperbaby


    It was great to meet everyone...
    we'll have to do rotating chairs in order to get to talk to everyone next time.
    I got breathalysed on the way home though...:eek:
    had one drink so was a wee bit stressed about it to say the least...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,390 ✭✭✭Stench Blossoms


    Plenty!!! :D:D Twould be telling.

    Remember when we were talking about , well, let's just call them, uh, Mr. X and Mrs. Y. So anyway, Mr. X would say, 'Marge, if this doesn't get your motor running, my name isn't Homer J. Simpson.'

    I've said too much !:eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,668 ✭✭✭brainyneuron


    Great meeting all you fabulous ladies last night! :D:D Had some great chats, sorry to those I didn't get to chat to, we'll definitely have to do rotating chairs next time! xx


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 278 ✭✭geekychick


    It was a great night out for me, so thank you Lady Pennyworth for organising it :) Hope to see ye all again, and next time, I may even be so proactive as to go and meet all the people sitting at the opposite side of the table! :D

    Hyperbaby, sorry to hear you were breathalised. But it went ok?

    Hi Guys,
    Great to meet everyone on Friday and I second everything said so far, it was a really great meet-up!!. Many thanks again to Lady P and best of luck in the big move in the coming weeks. You'll really be missed but you might be able to get over for our next meet-up. I am one of the aforementioned would-be swimmers and would love a PM about organising the lessons :):)
    Already looking forward to the next one.

    Hi guys, thanks so much for a brill night, so many great people. Idea of revolving chairs is excellent - so many people, so little time!! :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,096 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    This one time, at a boards ladies meet up..:) Let's do another! Prob have to reserve the whole bar next time with the increasing interest in these meet ups...


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 4,006 ✭✭✭donfers


    about 5 people have suggested rotating chairs...ummm what were you guys doing-speed-dating???

    have any of youz stumbled across the revolutionary thought that rotating chairs isn't necessary and you could, you know, (and i don't want to go too far here or suggest something beyond human capability), MOVE!!!!!

    Sometimes you get engrossed in conversation with a few people, so lose track of time or whatever!

    On Merchants Road, the feckers!

    Yeah it went okay but i was sweating for a few seconds...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 385 ✭✭Dutchess


    Glad it went so well!:) I wasn't really up for it on the night itself but the feedback bodes well for a next time.

    maybe 1.15 or so...

    another night would be cool :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 63 ✭✭grainnereills


    oooh, that sounds like fun, count me in for the next one!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,096 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    May 7th sounds great Xiney! Maybe do that bowling, there was a good bit on interest in that..and sure then maybe up town, or if this sun keeps shining we could sit outdoors :)

    Count me in anyway for whatever, I'll takle a back seat with organsing if that is okay, the old thesis needs my focus, but looks like this meet up will organise itself!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,085 ✭✭✭Xiney


    you know what, I think bowling is a great idea - since we're not sitting down we can move around more freely to talk to everyone.


    Also I suck at bowling so ye're bound to have fun pointing and laughing :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,096 ✭✭✭LadyMayBelle


    I RULE at bowling :D

    Okay actaully I have now jinxed myself...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,085 ✭✭✭Xiney


    I have an excuse - when I was a kid we only had a five pin bowling alley in town, and there are no holes in those balls. I've never really quite adjusted to the whole finger holes thing.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,390 ✭✭✭Stench Blossoms


    I'm useless at bowling as well so count me in !


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,085 ✭✭✭Xiney


    ok, I shall start a thread and ask les modérateurs to sticky it.

    I will definitely not chicken out this time and will turn up......It will be a welcome break from exams:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,668 ✭✭✭brainyneuron


    Bowling woop woop! :D I have exams the week after though so not sure if i'll be able to go :( Working till 9 too so I guess if I am coming I'll have to join ye a bit late!

    I think they where sitting nearest the bar?

    I didn't catch everyone's usernames though so I'm not 100% sure.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 tiggergirl


    I got in late and was sitting near the bar and never manage to move to far around the table.
