    ok folks, its come to a time in the year, when all the stooooodents are back
    at college, pockets full of cash from working over the summer hols and I propose
    that we have a bit of a bash to celebrate..

    So who would be interested Young and Old alike can partake
    (even as old a Mike 65!!!) :D

    Would be interested in getting as many South East peeps together as possible
    for a night of over indulgance in alcohol?

    Any takers?????

    Toxic Paddy - I hope you're not trying to set up a rival night out to our one :mad: - only jokin - we're trying to arrange one in the thread below - would be better if we merged them together or aren't we good enough for you ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,165 ✭✭✭Quigs Snr


    Sign me up, if I am around I will be there (Oct 9th is out for me so far).

    Whatever happens though, do not feed me Vodka after midnight or I will never be able to sign on here again.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 492 ✭✭climaxer


    Right so so far we have - anyone else feel free to add your name :) :

    Climaxer / Gemma
    Toxic Paddy
    Quigs Snr
    Smoke-me-a-kipper
    Mossy Monk
    Fozzle

    Just type in the Fri/Sat night that suits you best in October and give a second choice and we'll pick the night that most people can make it.

    BTW Quigs Snr - we'll feed you a Kebab instead of the vodka ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,165 ✭✭✭Quigs Snr


    I'll need the vodka before the Kebab. They should carry a warning in Abrakebabra and the Istanbul behind certain menu items such as Taco Fries.. 'Caution may not be suitable for sober people'. I love that crap when I'm drunk, sober it makes me ill.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,626 ✭✭✭smoke.me.a.kipper


    as climaxer stated, i would be interested in attending said drunkeness event.

    So true - I tried a taco chip one day whilst sober and it just wasn't the same. As for Istanbul you need to be more than drunk. Maybe we'll go to K-Recipe for a snack box and portion of gravy! Better still we'll go to the place with the smallest queue!

    ok so 6 people so far... now can we make it to double figures???? :)

    Anyone have any preferred venues? Geoffs might be a good start?

    Tox


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 492 ✭✭climaxer


    Yes Geoffs would be good to start off the session. I like T & H's myself too. Better to start off somewhere quietish as no point in meeting a bunch of strangers for the first time and not being able to hear each other....on the other hand though.....

    So we'll say Geoffs at 8:00

    Fridays don't suit me but I'm free all Saturdays in October except 2nd Oct.

    ohhhhhhhh 7.. nearly there..

    Oct 15th is a Friday and that Ocktoberfest in Downses sounds good. I could make that night - what do others think. We're gonna have to decide soon.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,165 ✭✭✭Quigs Snr


    Sign me up for Ocktoberfest then. Sounds good.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,882 ✭✭✭fozzle


    Oktoberfest sounds good to me too, I've a friend coming back from france for the weekend of the 9th so I couldn't have made it after all (it's in galway).

    Oooh, and it's the day after my birthday so I'll hopefully have money too, excellent! :D

    Well considering that most of who are going are from Waterford it would be
    kind of the obvious thing to do to arrange it in Waterford.. :)

    Why where ya from ravenhead?

    Mossy is pretty much looking like a no show (dont count me out yet though)

    he went to a doctor today with leg problems and he literally can barely walk. told to rest for 10 days and only move when nature calls by mr. medicine man

    Tell Mossy he won't need to walk - we will go to the bar for him and get his drinks and will sit right next to the toilet so he won't have far to go when he needs to go!!

    List so far:

    Climaxer (Gemma) - def
    + smoke-me-a-kipper (Ciaran) - def
    Mossy Monk - def
    Fozzle - def

    Come on we need more people!!!!!!

    Will we say 8:30 in Downses - how will we recognise each other?!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,626 ✭✭✭smoke.me.a.kipper

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 126 ✭✭pixie_student

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 492 ✭✭climaxer


    Is anyone going to be def there for 8:30ish, if not will give it a miss myself. No point in having a boards beers on my own!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,882 ✭✭✭fozzle

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 126 ✭✭pixie_student


    Id like to pop along but im new on boards and know no one. Im a bit on the shy side and would feel weird walking into a pub looking for a couple of strangers that i don't even know what they look like. :confused:

    Is it strictly boards or can i drag someone along with me?

    Pixie ;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,626 ✭✭✭smoke.me.a.kipper


    if i go, ill be doing the very same. except ill be an hours drive from home, and be on my own :eek: you can drag someone. its actually great fun, going out with people you dont know. ive done it a few times with boards beers. all of my friends think im mad for doing it.

    Of course you can drag someone along. We are hoping to meet at 8:30 - myself and fozzle and quigs snr. I'll pm you my mobile no and a pic so you won't be so freaked out or maybe that'll make you worse!!

    I havn't met anyone from boards either but have met lots of cyberbuddies from the parenting site I use and havn't have to say they were all dead on.

    For anyone coming late doubt if we'll stay in Downses all night but we'll let the barman know where we're heading....maybe the Forum?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,882 ✭✭✭fozzle


    Well the forum sounds good to me! :D

    Don't worry pixie student, most of my friends I made in college were from the college boards, I'll admit meet-ups can be scary but I've never met people I didn't come to like at one. Anyone I know off boardsy I knew in the time before so I'll be meeting new folks tonight too! Come along, and of course your friend can come!

    Now I just have to figure out my transport, bus through Cahir or train from Kilkenny... *ponders*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 126 ✭✭pixie_student


    Aw girls thanks a million for being so nice ;)

    i'm going for a few college drinkies now so hopefully i'll stil be able to stand by the time 8.30 comes.

    @Climaxer.. Don't worry you didnt freak me out, at least i'll be able to look out for someone. I have your number anyways so i'll let you know a bit later on if i'll be there.

    @fozzle.. Get the train, buses are horrible.. especially if your travelling on your own! Well i dont know about you but i think i attract strange smelly people that ALWAYS sit next to me. :eek:

    Talk soon,
    Pixie x


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,882 ✭✭✭fozzle


    Train it is! I shall see ye laster, my dears! Anyone else that's around, wander in at some stage, even if it's only for half an hour!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,626 ✭✭✭smoke.me.a.kipper

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 126 ✭✭pixie_student
