    Ahaha. I deliberately posted this thread when I knew people would be hungover, tbh.

    But don't lie, you know you enjoyed yourself. Two months to recover! :p

    Excuse me, I only stumbled in my heels three times, and once was due to a hole in the path! I don't need babysitting!





    I need locking up. :o

    I may actually have a tattoo by them so if you don't mind a non-drinker tagging along...

    Two things.

    1. You don't have to have body mods to be welcome! Anyone is welcome, silly. You've contributed here a good bit, we'd hardly tell you to feck off just because you don't yet have a tattoo! :)

    2. Of course non-drinkers are welcome! I'm not going to lie, some of us will be pretty drunk by the end of the night, but if you're happy to go to a pub (I know a few non-drinkers who won't go to one!), we're happy to have you. And we're not the type to pressure you into drinking, we're a sound bunch.

    So please come along, you're more than welcome! :)

    Thank you my dear.

    I know that I would have been made feel more than welcome at the most recent one but I would have felt a bit of a fraud.

    Even if I drank I wouldn't on the night as I will have to drive, whatever night it is (lift north-bound available probably for anyone who wants it). I have no problem at all in going to a pub, booze just isn't my own personal poison.

    Ah, the forum is for tattoo and piercing lovers, not just people who have them. :) You like body mods (I'm assuming, or else you wouldn't be planning a tattoo!), so you'll fit right in. I'm not exactly covered head to toe myself. :pac:

    That's really kind of you. :) Once you're comfortable with being in a pub, then please come along. :) You don't have to be an alcoholic like me to have a good time. :p

    Good woman :) I was so peeved I didn't make it Saturday so I am so on for this - as evidenced by the dates I ticked. As for ticking other date - July 6th would rock, not cos it is my birthday or anything >_> <_< :P

    MacTurcles was a bit of craic till the locals showed up and the loud DJ of doom started their set

    That DJ *shakes fist* :mad: Seemed they deliberately didn't want people to have conversations.

    Yeah that was pretty irritating, the 'light show' was a bit of a laugh I guess though

    I say we find a place with a decent smoking area next time, perhaps one of the smaller venues?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,681 ✭✭✭✭P_1

    Seeing as it's gonna be a summer beers (with hopefully good weather) perhaps somewhere with a daycent beer garden?

    Can't speak for the others, but I'd prefer veering away from hell this time round!

    Although bumping into my mate from Canada that night was a welcome surprise since he feckin lives in Canada, so there's something to be said for hell!

    It would probably be no one's choice but my own but the beer garden in Whelans is perfect for my needs.

    What about Grand Social? Smoking areas nice, just not a huge atmosphere til later in the evening. Might be really good on weekends. I only go there on Wednesdays sometimes.

    I do like Whelans but the smoking area in there has no bar and yeh cant move in the thing if its anyway busy ;).

    If upstairs is open the bar should be close enough to not be inconvenient. I like it when it's packed though. It lends itself to a certain degree of 'anonymity'.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Orim


    Market Bar is good spot. And has two great smoking areas.

    Grand Social almost always has gigs on or live music, so we'd all have to pay in for a band we mightn't necessarily like. Lovely pub though.

    Isn't that just upstairs though? And you don't have to pay if you don't go up?

    I could be wrong, it's a been a while since I was there.

    Maybe, I'm not sure.

    Workmans is also a nice indie-rock club with a great smoking area. TGI Fridays is just a cool place, although it's not open late. Perhaps better for pre-drinks? :p

    It's a hole of a place
    I was out other night and met up with a mate of mine in there
    Never been there before and never will again
    Over crowded ,full of yuppies , smell is rotten and was waiting about 15 minutes just to get a bottle of bulmers
    Stayed for half hour t chat to my mate and then seen a mate of mine works there as bouncer so chatted to him and left
    Felt more out of place than a croc at a alligator rally

    Well I'm pretty sure it not being your scene doesn't make it a hole now, in all fairness.
