Anyone going anywhere nice for the long weekend?

kfallon

Well I'm not, looking forward to a few pints and watching the sport.

But are any of ye going abroad, travelling home, just going away for a break with the family?

Oh and wait for the TV3 'American Themed' bulletin on the news on Good Friday morning that everyone is travelling home for the 'holidays' and that all roads, trains, airports will be packed.

No. They. Won't. :rolleyes:

Make sure you trim up 'down there', they won't want to see any spiders legs :pac:

Can't believe people are making plans presuming we'll have good weather, this is Ireland remember, we are having our summer today and tomorrow and that's it :P

Head to Barcelona from Fri - Mon with 8 lads, going to Osasuna match, and hopefully Messi and Co. will be perading the Kings Cup around the stadium beforehand! No doubt the weather will be nicer in Ireland then Barcelona knowing my luck!

I wanna go to Vegas for a long weekend. Like 5 days or something. Offering to buy the flights and all for someone who wants to go and no takers amongst mates. The range of excuses have been incredible.

I'd be more worried about the pickpockets than the weather tbh, be very careful!

What were the excuses - they should be good considering they turned down a free trip to Vegas?

Five day weekend in this part of the world

Packing up the 4x4 early Friday morning and driving 900kms north to go camping, snorkelling and dolphin feeding. Booze will naturally be involved too. Need to make the most of the last week or two of 30 degrees before winter kicks in.

:cool:

One wanted to bring his girlfriend. I don't wanna be a third wheel on my own trip. Two said it's not worth going all that way for 5 days. Another said he didn't wanna miss out on the traditional trip to Newry on Good Friday. Newry for fúcks sake! The rest said they wouldn't have the spending money. Starting to think they hate me.

Well if you can't buy your friends, then I don't know what options you have left :pac:

I kid, spending money in Vegas is probably worth a small fortune to some people.

Ah it was this spontaneous decision so was short notice on them all. Looks like it might be Newry for me too.

Vegas can be expensive even with free flights! Has the thought that they might not be able to afford it not crossed your mind?

Tell me about it. I climbed Croagh Patrick two years ago and at that stage I was so unfit, I made Homer Simpson look like Usain Bolt! I nearly DIED.

Better off finess-wise now, plus I LOVE cycling so it'll be worth the arse pain!

Monkey Mia? Great spot, especially if you get in with the staff for one of their private beach parties and the dolphins rolling up to the shore like pets. Jealous

Me, no plans really, big booze up in Westport Sat night and that's it. When I saw the thread title I thought this was about something hairdressers might ask :pac:

Meant flights and accommodation. Spending money for 5 days ain't that much. 4 day buffet pass covers all meals for 60 bucks and drinks are comped in the casinos even if just using the slots. Drinks are cheap to buy anyways away from the big clubs. I think the offer from me was generous enough. If they can't afford it fair enough. Just wanted to go but not by myself. And the 2 who said 5 days isn't worth it can well afford it.

The loons on that Island just abandon cars in the middle of the road over there. Main culprit is some loony chef!!!

Vegas isnt a place to be watchin the pennies though either, if youre gonna go all that way you wanna do it right. flights and accom is the cheap part. drinks aint cheap in the big clubs.....400 dollar bottles of vodka and 16 dollar jaegerbombs spring to mind!

Maybe they were uncomfortable accepting such a generous offer from you, like they felt they'd owe you or something?

Whoever said the thing about Newry isn't your friend and you should do away with him immediately. I was in Newry once, didn't like it very much.
