Boards Meetup. Interested?

J_E

With the start of a new year and a few new fresh UL faces, along with veteran members, I thought it would be a good idea to set up some sort of meetup for boardsies, kind of similar to BULBs. I'm aware that one or two first years here haven't met a lot of people yet so this would be a great opportunity to get to know us and make some friends! I'm not going for a definite date yet, for now I just want to see if people are interested, and any suggestions on where to go and what to do are welcome. Do post here if you're interested!

I might sacrifice my anonymity to you all and make you all grossly uncomfortable. Any night suits.

J_E

I'll give it a week to get some interest and then we can start setting a date. It'll be good fun

So would that just be a BUL, without the last B?

There are some non drinkers around this year so the answer is probably yes.

Destroying a long term tradition of broken promises and no-shows from unknown persons on the internet :eek:

A BUL or BULBS is the same thing, I hope people turn up to allow everyone to get to know who is who, who does what, what goes on and why.....and in turn this would help eliminate the accusations that are currently residing in a thread currently on this forum.....

BULBS used to be some of the best fun I had in UL....

Im in sure have it in Javas and people can decide whether or not they want a second B

Brains?

Sounds good! you can count me in anyway!

BUL doesn't have the same ring to it as BULBs

Thats what we did last year. Start there and get to know each other then move wherever.
By the way Javas is Scholars for anyone that is confused

Junco Partner

sounds good
although the extra B would make it that bit more enjoyable.

Busi_Girl08

Does the extra B sound for Bulmers?

>_>

<_<

I couldn't make any of them last year, so hopefully this year is different, and Javas is a good choice too..

We all need to wear a red rose on our shirts obviously. :pac:

Depending on what night it's on, and the amount of progress I can make into this pile on my desk I'd be up for it.

floutingmaxims

Looking forward to it already

just shout out atari jaguar when you go in whoever turns round is a boardsie, or someone trying to figure out what eejit is shouting.

Scholars sounds like a good place to start. Maybe we can start putting a rough date on this, next week or week after perhaps?

Haven't been this year yet, but last year it was on later, from about 9pm on. (Well, it might have started earlier, but that's when I got there usually)

Junco Partner

you're arriving too early starts at nine till close. i missed the first two out of pure laziness finally went and earned my free pint this week though. i think the first week it was 6 but since then it's been nine.

J_E

That would explain it. I was all geared up each time too :P

LAC

Cool idea might go myself.

Gael23

Does Monday or Thursday suit people better? Id prefer Thursday but i'll go along with Monday either way.

Junco Partner

maybe a poll. monday or thursday?

Daniel S

Have me cans sorted. When and what field are we going to?

Chris Martin

Monday night up at HS building for half 9 Tuesday morning for Bio labs,
Thursday night, up in Foundation Building 9 o clock next morning for Chem lecture.
But being a rebel bastard, this information is insignificant as I can go either or both!
Hoping for a Golden Week next week as well,
We'll see how that goes ;P

Just thought,
Wish I picked a more unique username now...
Are you SuperTNTmadPHSYCO?

Nah. I'm Chris Martin...

Oh...

Will depend on how I get on with this ****ing project at the weekend, but should be good for Thursday hopefully. (Or if there's overwhelming majority of people wanting it another night I can try and accomodate 2-10 hours of drinking/banter :pac:)

J_E

Thursday seems to be the best day of having it. If anyone can't make it Thursday though post here.

POLL!!!!

I vote Thursday.

Junco Partner

doesn't matter to me any way i have nothing due for next week. only said monday cause of the music in stables but if thursday suits better for others then thursday it will be i'll be out both nights any way.

SarahBeep!

Thursday is better for me

DJCR

I'm in as per usual!

Chris Martin

Unsure about other timetable now,
Gone this Tue Night,
Unsure about Monday,
Where ye going?
Campus or otherwise?

J_E

Think Thursday is looking like the day to go with.

I'd say we'll meet on-campus and see where we go from there

Gael23

I think Scholars wold be a good place to start because its nice and quiet so we can get to know each other then go wherever after that.

J_E

So it's looking like Scholars on a Thursday. Shall we say 7 roughly?

Chris Martin

Start with Scholars to get the ball rolling eh? ;D
