    Starting it in here as not everyone goes to the sub menu.

    I had an excellent time and I think the majority of people did.
    As others have said everyone was friendly and was great to meet some new ladies!

    Cork girl was babe of the under 30s
    sNarah was babe of the under 40s
    and Mrs P&B was babe of the under 50s
    :)

    Besides babes I was the drunkest out of everyone and also the loudest, Pull and Bang was the most generous and wily sneaking downstairs in pub for extra booze when upstairs closed.

    sNarah was a wonderful wonderful host, totally suited for it and her BF was the hero of the night who stood up to two drunken randomers near the end of the night.

    Covey I wasn't too drunk to remember that I'm saving for that Syria trip!!

    I never thought I'd see the day where I'd see SineadW wearing a skirt and shoes!! I bet she couldn't get back into jeans quickly enough!!

    PixbyJohn and DK32 were great craic as well, sorry if I left anyone else out!

    Tallest person was Dutch Guy! and he's a Beamish drinker! :eek:

    Ken Sutton get's the most modest pro photographer title!
    It's a pity so many people brought their cars and couldn't drink, it's why the country is in recession people because of your teetotalling ways!!

    Oh Devores new facial hairs are the se x eh!

    Oh incase people are wondering why I didn't put up the pics that they took with my Camera it's because they didn't come out!! You people need to learn to use BBF which is the wya my Cam is set up!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,067 ✭✭✭AnimalRights


    hah! I left out what a privledge it was to meet Pivot Al, that offer is still available Al!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,200 ✭✭✭kensutz


    Bloody good night I must say and time flew. I didn't realise how late it was until I looked at my watch and saw it was 1am. How time flies when you're having fun! It was a great laugh sitting down with AnimalRights, Jim, Pullandbang, Mrs P&B and everyone else.

    Good to meet a lot of new heads and the only thing is it's a pity I couldn't have got there sooner but I made a decent entrance :)

    Big thanks to everyone. Glad I didn't get nabbed to do a speech because when I got to DCC I was sweating buckets from all the running around. It was a pleasure to get the book done and dusted with very little inconvenience and also Vincent in Shakespeare Photo Books who was an absolute gent to deal with.

    ps. AnimalRights - glad you remembered to do the best female categories lol!

    Thanks AnimalRights- nice to meet you too. Glad to see that the Bulmers doesn't affect the memory! I apppreciate your kind offer but I think i will stick to my 350D for the moment!

    Thanks to all for a very enjoyable evening.

    Cork girl was babe of the under 30s
    sNarah was babe of the under 40s
    and Mrs P&B was babe of the under 50s
    :)

    Woooo woooooo :D So that's what you were on about with my age!! I was wondering what that conversation was about!

    Really great pics too - spotted one of me in your pixie - big smiley head on me, sign of a good night!

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,063 ✭✭✭GristlyEnd


    Very nice shots and a great night. Unfortunately when we got to our 3.30am bus they turned us away as it was full so we had Supermacs and got a taxi home.

    Hah well I had planned to bring the rather delicous Krupnik. We keep all the unopened alcomohol in a storage cupboard but having gotten back home late and then the rush to get stuff made I just didn't have time to dig it out. Next year Neil!

    It looks like I missed a great night. Well done to everyone involved in the organizing for all the hard work, especially sNarah and Kensutz!

    Oh and thanks to Buzz Lightyear for dropping my book out to me!

    Looks like a great time was had by all, well done.

    Now on to the selfish part... didn't see my name on the list above, did someone grab my copy to bring west of the shannon, by any good fortune??

    As sNarah said. Hope you're still up for that walk otherwise we'll arrange something as long as you're in that area that weekend (04.12.)

    Thanks a million Petra, if I can't make it maybe one of the natives could take it and I could get it off them later :)

    Hoping to make the walk though!
