    Due to bad weather the night has been moved to this friday (3rd of December)




    Right,

    Some leg work has been done behind the scenes And we are having our quarterly Fourm night out on saturday week. The usual plan is to meet in Downes at 8ish so if your at a loose end and feel like putting a face to a few if the names cone down.

    We usually get between 5 and 8 people turning up so it's nothing mental but it's usually a good night. You don't need to be a big poster, open to all not just boardsies.

    Can't wait :D. It's going to be a messy one :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,333 ✭✭✭jonnyfingers


    Count me in. Paulaner hangover here we come.

    Will the new pub going into Twister Vicks be open by then? Could be a good spot for those planning on staying late.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    Oh ya,

    Abouttobebanned will surely spot this and let us know. I'm pretty sure he said they'll be open by end of November so that'd be deadly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,333 ✭✭✭jonnyfingers


    I'm so happy about this thread I'm going out tonight to celebrate! I'll go to Geoff's in your honour Ziedth!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭abouttobebanned

    great stuff,

    Be a pity to wreck the place so soon after opening :)

    Nice name btw.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭abouttobebanned


    Thanks :)

    I'm sure I'll be here dealing with customer queries on a daily basis. But we will definitely look after boardsies for anything that a pub could potentially have to offer someone!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 107 ✭✭MFZ


    Geeh, cinema on Wednesday, beers on Saturday, party week here we come.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,975 ✭✭✭nkay1985


    The Front Lounge it is so!!!!

    I've some week set up for me when I come back from the honeymoon. Back on Sunday, soccer training and match presumably sometime that week. Cinema midweek. Beers the Saturday. The Waterford forum is going to be the death of me! :P

    Looking forward to this already. Is the Front Lounge going to be a late bar by the way?

    It will on Fridays and saturdays


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    Nice one,

    We require a magnum of Cristal on arrival and maybe 6 bottles of Moët for the ladies. Can't have them drinking the good stuff.

    You have to at least match the service we get in Downes :)

    Yeah I'll be expecting something completely out of place like the Dyson Airblade is in Downes'!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Looking forward to this now!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    Ya me too,

    Must see can I get a couple of the lads to come down on the day but if not we seem to have a nice number going too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Just a little bump so the weekend birds see it :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭abouttobebanned


    FYI The Beach Combers will be the band in the front lounge that night. (you'll recognise the lads from San Fran Fiasco...that band is no more unfortunately)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    Nice one, San Fran played at my wedding I didn't realise they finished up. They were great.

    Are there many from the band in it?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,943 ✭✭✭abouttobebanned


    3 (i think)

    I always thought you were one of my mates from in around town. Infact, I started calling him Ziedth on occasion, and he would normally give an awkward/confused laugh, which I assumed was just "oh god don't refer to me by my boards nick around decent real life people". It was only a few weeks ago I asked him why the **** he was in Geoffs when he seems so hell-bent against the place that he asked me what I was ****ting on about.

    Anyway, long story short, now I think I should probably go and have a pint with you, since I've had so much practice in talking to you already.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 711 ✭✭✭snuggles09


    I was also convinced for months that I knew someone on here..I never made reference to it when talking to him though but then the "real life" guy got married and the same night the name from here was on posting so I realised then it wasn't him..There are only 2 on here who I know for definite in real life..Will me funny to meet up and see if we know each other...see if we know any of the "waterford heads":D

    Ha Ha,

    Ya you should. One of the lads is like Monk when it comes to figuring out to who people are. It's scary.

    If this is snow keeps up I might be a questionmark for tonight but I'm sure it'll die off.

    Haha, I seem to recall ziedth on here on his wedding night!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,101 ✭✭✭MitchKoobski


    I'm not as discreet.

    I just walk up to people and go "....boards?" at random events. If they nod I did good.

    AdMMM can attest to this....every single time I run into him in the forum.

    What if they just hear "bored?" and nod? Do you sit down without another word? Maybe they just want your company though.

    P.S. I think we deserve some hot whiskeys tonight due to the weather that's in it.

    I hang the 's' like a pro.

    Boarrrdssssssss...?

    The snow is bucketing down here,

    it's looking dodgy at best. you'd never know though, I don't think a 30min drive in this would be the best iea :)

    leave it with me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,591 ✭✭✭STIG83


    I sees a thaw coming


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    Ya it's stopped here too thank god. We might get lucky.

    How is it in town lads?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Town is fine now. All the gritted roads are very drivable and constant flow of traffic on the un-gritted roads has made them okay now. Hills in the FWD and RWD cars will be fun for all the family however.

    The footpaths will be lethal tonight. We'll all have to hold hands on our way to The Front Lounge.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,975 ✭✭✭nkay1985


    Yeah it could be very dodgy tonight. Might be ok for getting in and getting around but getting home could be deadly. I suppose we'll just have to call it later on.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    Ya everyone watch this space,

    Bit like Nkay said there its not now or even at 10pm tonight its gonna be at 2am that tis gonna hit the fan.

    i could stay in the travelodge no bother but that leaves it open to be stranded in town tomorrow morning if it snows again.

    I'm gonna push it as far as I can to go cause I really looking forward to it.

    I don't know. Grà just said it's going to be between 0 and -7 tonight with more snow, sleet, freezing fog etc. Got caught in town last December 23rd when the taxis stopped running because of ice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    in the words of dragons den i'm out.

    just went outside and the slush has frozen so I can only imagine what it will be like between here and town tonight.

    can I make a suggestion of picking a different night? your all not worth risking my life :pac:

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    I can't saturday,

    at least I could only maybe meet and be gone before 9 and maybe meet back up with yee much later in the night. Friday?

    if saturday suits everyone else go with that and i'll drop in and out.
