    Just saw this event on Facebook and thought I would get it a bit more attention. There's a zombie walk organised for Thursday 15th July. Might be a good laugh --

    Can't wait! None of my friends love zombies (losers :pac:), so if people want to meet for a pint before that would be cool.

    I was in Prague in May, we'd just arrived in the city and turned onto Wencelas square and saw thousands of zombies walking towards us! it was very freaky! they were everywhere.we stood watching for while and decided to move on, went down this small side street and met them again coming towards us! have to say I was feeling slightly paranoid by then they were following us! the outfits were class! everyone looked great!
    duno was it the same thing. we heard someone nearby saying it was a protest for animal rights but i dont know how true this was..still looked great tho!

    Very true!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 215 ✭✭Eman Resu


    Should be held early on a sunday morning because

    a) Acting braindead is easier with a hangover.

    b) Religious types might think it's Armageddon.

    Sounds good!

    If ye are going for pints afterwards I'd definitely call in for one or two. Partly to meet a few people from here, partly to see a pub full of the cast from "Thriller".

    I hope all the little kids are tucked up in their beds for this one!! Years ago we were at a pre-Christmas scare thing they do in Austria with massive hairy monsters rampaging through the streets with whips and bells and it scared every child within half a mile!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,789 ✭✭✭✭ScumLord

    There was already one in Dublin a few weeks ago :P http://www.facebook.com/home.php?ref=logo#!/event.php?eid=124114800958248

    I meant to go but it was on at the exact same time as the pride parade so I missed it! It was meant to be great fun though. Wish I lived closer to Galway to go to this one.
