So throw out some dates :D Maybe Saturday 31st as it's a few weeks away and plenty of time for people to organise accom./ check work? Usual call of duty is a few pints in JW…

Usual call of duty is a few pints in JW Sweetmans followed by a few dodgey dances in the club. But people can go to whatever just suits them. It's for boys and girls, all ages, and newbies welcome. 'Tis great craic and well worth it I think!

I'd definitely be interested in heading out if I'm off that Saturday. Working in Retail atm so my weekends aren't automatically free

31st probably suits me

It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

I'll be heading to Ikea that weekend, so I may hang about if I can find somewhere to park a van overnight.

Someone needs to do a boards.ie sign

I'll print out a notice no bother. Just remembering it's a bank holiday weekend so if it's completely jam-packed people should check this thread and see where the gang is. More than likely the second floor around the big tables!

So again guys, the call of duty will be meeting at J.W. Sweetman (end of O'Connell street) around 7.30 onwards. Come at any time and leave at any time, no problem. Obviously would be ideal if we could all make a night of it!

From there on to another pub, possibly Front Lounge and maybe a few dances in the George or wherever the groups feeling. Don't feel obliged to go to any part you might not feel comfortable with as it's mainly just a chat and chin wag sort of night (but I make no promsies )

See you all later!

Dont forget a sign.

Had you no colouring pencils? Wish I could go, but I'm as broke as Ash's printer. Enjoy
