    I'd be up for it, I still have an unresolved argument with kess about getting rid of old british monarchy's names from our streets. Nothing like a discussion over a civil pint to sort that one out..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭bennyl10


    Where would suit most? :)
    Time to be social bordies :D

    Kess wouldn't show up. He values his anonymity far too much. :P

    I'll join this if I'm free. :)

    Likewise, if I can get away the night you're doing it I'll pop by for a few sociables.

    Right now. Gasping for a pint! :pac:

    Na whenever. Mid September maybe?


  • Moderators Posts: 3,554 ✭✭✭Wise Old Elf


    Great idea. Depends on day/date whether I'd make it, but I'd like to be sociable for once!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,874 ✭✭✭padma


    I work crazy shifts. But throw it out there and if I can make it I will

    Shall we say, clohessys, smyths, ardhu, nancys, mickey martins or pddy frawleys.... Any others spring to mind?


    Then sort out date?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭bennyl10


    Thinkin maybe second/third week september?
    Sure we could find something to tie it in with :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,407 ✭✭✭lkionm


    Costellos?


    Suitably dark


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 30,972 Mod ✭✭✭✭Insect Overlord


    The Locke and Blind Pig worked well when we had our last decent get-together. Mickey Martins would be my favourite from the list above.

    Forget the blind pig! And locke of course!

    Always have loved the blind pig..

    Should probably just throw the crafty fox out there too.. if for nothing more than an option.

    Be up for this if there's enough going, I downvote Smyths immediately :pac:

    Hoped people wpould, but feel it needed a mention becasue of the few devotees who'd freak if wasn't mentioned..

    Or are boardies more sensical..

    Locke and the Blind Pig seems a good idea but other options too:)

    So, The Limerick Boards Booze Soiree.

    Any update? I'd nearly settle for a few cans in a field with a bonfire at this stage :P

    Nancy's would be first choice but what about Mike Flannerts Pub?

    You might have an unresolved issue, but I am content with the knowledge that I was right :pac: In my little world I am never wrong:p

    Been out for a number of Boards nights out in Dublin, Cork, and Galway with some of the footy forum guys and been to a few gigs with a few of the guys and gals in the music forums. Maybe I am just fussy who I drink with. :p

    I wouldn't mind going along for a few. The Crafty Fox would be my first choice although Nancy's would be good too.

    Jaysus, now I will be watching my back when in BCG. :eek: Hope that miracle grow was really good quality though as you had a lot of catching up to do :p


    Things are pretty good on my end. Professional and personal life is ticking along quite well, and will probably stay in Ireland a bit longer as a result


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,765 ✭✭✭DaveNoCheese


    I was considering coming along but now that I see the snipe is going I just remembered I'm washing my hair that night :p

    Of course, its usually a case for the lads to put a face to a name and have a bit of craic and to meet new people so the more the merrier :)

    Have we a date set yet? Was out in limerick last night/during the day for the first time in months and I haven't a clue what happened. The place has been given a new lease of life. Good atmosphere and crowd up O Connell street and around Bedford row. It was just a nice place to be and the weather obviously helped. Kinda like shop street in galway. First time in years that I actually enjoyed a day out in town. I'd a belly full of Heineken too so that could have had an affect :P If you're interested in dance music, Laidback Luke was brilliant in Crush last night :)

    well a pub is just normally the easiest way to get a big group of people together(and talking also)

    What else would you suggest other than Beers?..

    Was only ever in it since it became the Crafty Fox. Was never in there under it's previous incarnations The Cuckoo Box and McDaids. My fave there is the Fischer's Helles beer, lovely stuff!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,585 ✭✭✭bennyl10
