August Meetup

Daith

Hi folks,

Trying to find interest for a Boards LGBT August meetup

Two dates that work for me (both Saturdays)

August 23rd
August 30th


If anybody has any ideas of what they would like to do post them but just trying to find the general interest first

Either is fine for me - would prefer 30th though as march for marriage is the 24th and I dont want to be in the city 2 days in a row!

I was kinda thinking that the 23rd might suit better for people outside Dublin to come up on the Sat, stay for March for Marriage on Sunday and head home after it.

Whatever suits though, I live in this city all the days

Who had to be the outlier?

30th should be fine for me. This will probably be my last meet up though since I am moving to France in September.

The meet ups have treated me well and was the important ingredient to me coming out, embracing my sexuality and accepting me as a gay man. There's still work to be done but I'm always thankful for them.

Thanks for the invite to France btw :pac:

Hey, guys (gender neutral). I was at the Feb one and it would be cool to meet some real-life gay people again - it has literally been that long. :eek: I'm fine for both days.

Of course, that was why I was telling you about France.

Though, for a relatively small town, my new town has a gay nightclub and a gay café. So a meet up in France could be possible;)

I should be good for the 30th Probably wouldn't be able to make 23rd

30th looks good for me at the moment but I am flexible.

dory

What's that? A solidarity march for the marginalised peoples of Limerick?

I should have closed the poll earlier than the 22nd...but yeah I'd be up for a non-beer thing even just coffee. 3FE sounds fine or maybe Roasted Brown in Filmbase.

Daith

Hey so let's say tomorrow at 12pm we will close the poll and see what the date is.

Anybody have any other suggestions for venue?

Daith

Hey folks,

30th Aug
Coffee and Cake at 3FE at 2pm

Anybody interested just pop your name below.

Probably going to make a weekend of it so if anyone wants to head out that night as well!

RagsOBrien

I won't make the day time get together due to work commitments but will be available in the evening night time of the 30th if that option was there..

playedalive

The coffee part should be fine for me during the day but have something on later to go to.

I'm going to head in for 2pm and try and get seats. We can't really book seats unless we were going to go to a barista class which actually sounds fun!

Hopefully people will show up and we can keep the conversation going till 3
