    probably with it being a bank hol, Halloween falls on a Thursday night this year which is kinda awkward, the weekend before is a bit early but you can't really go out the weekend after either for it. Halloween is the best night out in town imo, everyones in great form and you can chat to people about their costumes.

    If you're dumbing down Nile Rogers and Chic to one average Daft Punk song, then you need to get listening to some Chic ASAP

    It's called the old quarter again. Only last night I had a pointless conversation with a friend.

    Me: Oh look, the old quarter is called the old quarter again.

    Friend: Did it change its name?

    Me: Ya, it was o Connells for a while.

    Friend: No it wasn't.

    Me: Yes it was.

    Friend: You're talking crap.

    Me: Shut up

    That was the end of our stupid conversation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,965 ✭✭✭SarahBeep!


    Thank god it's not O'Connells anymore!

    Would Flan open up on the Sunday coz tis a bank holiday?? :D:D:D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 338 ✭✭Marcus Halberstram

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    Hi lads need a route for the 12 pubs of xmas, Any ideas? Will start in the city


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    You could start in Fla's - Tom Collins - Squires - Small Claws - Breens - Flannerys - Mickeys - and then do a few around market area


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,497 ✭✭✭moby2101


    Alternate route from the other side of town!
    Ant O Dwyres, Charlie Malones, Bobby's, Souths, Willies, Windmill, White House, Tom's, Flas...aaaaaannd you're back in the City Centre!!
    The possibilities are endless!! ;) enjoy

    You have Clem's and Dolan's on the Dock Road too, if you want a quick pair of pubs after some of the ones listed above. ^^
    Souths, Sexton's and the White House don't always like the 12 Pubs crowds.

    It's a case of the regulars being pissed off by a group of screaming drunks who only come in once a year, buy one pint and leave the place in a mess...

    Every year the 12 pubs is becoming bigger but equially less popular with the pubs!!

    True but as you said it might only be one night. I know a good few publicans certainly wouldn't mind it..

    I've an idea.
    Don't bother.

    Nothing more annoying than that 12 pubs crowd on their once a year session. Puking on top of themselves, blowing whistles and generally wrecking the heads of people out for a pint.

    So a typical Saturday night then ya?

    Get over it. The vast majority of people doing the 12 pubs are in and out within half an hour and cause no fuss. As you say, it's once a year. Itsdacraic after all

    A few of the lads wandered in for a quick one while waiting for us to clear out of clems during the 12 pubs 2 years ago. They said they never felt so out of place and uncomfortable in their lives!

    Great spot. Go in in a gang, otherwise you'll be there on your own! I was there for one on a stag a few months ago. We stayed there for 2 hours. Nuxer shouting at us over the bar, only Guinness on tap.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 338 ✭✭Marcus Halberstram


    Christ that place. not sure I could actually say what I want to here about it...:eek:

    "on a stag"

    Sure you were. Everyone knows what you were doing there.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,429 ✭✭✭testicle


    There were no hookers there, if that's what you're asking, bar Nuxer himself who used to play for the Cookies.

    ;)
