    Havnt been in it on a Saturday night however Im in Dublin this weekend so may venture in for research purposes if anyone fancies a reconnisance mission.There is a mahoosive bar upstairs that has trad sessions on Fridays which soak up alot of the crowd,not sure bout Saturdays though.

    Cool. I'm still abroad so can't make the reconnisance mission, that's a good idea though

    has someone been there before on a saturday evening? Have a feeling it could be packed and shouting will be neccesary

    Yeah it's busy enough on Saturdays. I'm sure they'd keep an area reserved if asked.

    Wouldn't be cheap now Maggie. Usual off Grafton Street type of prices.

    It's a nice bar though and I don't remember it having very loud music..

    I rarely ever drink anywhere near Grafton street so I have no idea of the prices but I will survive.

    Maggie? lol, this is why everyone thinks I am a girl haha.

    Been very quiet in here,could it be that tGC'ers are leading sober lives now?

    :eek:

    As an aside,last weekend myself and the other boardies that undertook the perilous scouting mission ended up in Doyles.

    Twas good drunken fun,and Drav's sterling Elvis moves were most interesting.

    :cool:

    I probably am going to come along to this as it is the weekend before placement starts. One last Hurrah before college starts again. :cool: So Maggie will get his bit of cake. :pac:

    And Doyles is about a 6 minute walk from the Duke.
