    Let's not have another last minute job. Old skool: a Friday, at 5pm, in Tom Barrys. All that remains is the actual date.

    5pm? Some of us work for a living!


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Not really following you there; could you be more specific?

    (Seriously though, on a Friday at 5pm? Yeah, right!)

    Early bird gets the worm. And, you know, locked?

    If it's any of the next four Friday's I'm in. Otherwise I'm working. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,780 ✭✭✭JohnK


    I've missed those wonderfull early starts :). Probably wouldnt be able to do it this Friday but should be around next Friday I think.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,076 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    Friday 16th sound like a plan so?

    Though I object to Tom Barry's on the basis that, well, unless adam gets there at about noon and keeps space for us, there'll be crowds of people. Which we can't be dealing with. On the plus side, beer. So hmmm.

    There won't be crowds at 5pm. And Friday is the 15th.

    I've put Beer? in my Google Calendar for the 15th at 5pm. Don't make me move it.

    Yeah yeah, you and your accurate keystrokes. You know what you can do, don't you? :P

    And yeah, alright then. Usual rules apply?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    There's rules?


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,076 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    I do believe they were your rules, though they might have only applied to pub crawls. Which leads to my next awesome suggestion - how bout making next week a pub crawl?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Ah sure I can only remember them when I'm drunk.

    Pub crawl sounds good, as long as we start in Tom Barrys, end in Tom Barrys, and drink all our pints in Tom Barrys in between.

    Been to the beer garden in the Fionn Barra yet adam?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Sure I was drinking in there since it was the Trinity and you were just an itch in your daddy's pants. (Sorry, too many southun books lately.) I was never madly impressed with Fionn Barras, although that's more to do with the staff than anything else. Never felt very welcome there. Unlike the Trinity, who let me walk out the last night with an Erdinger keg under my arm. For some reason I've yet to fathom...

  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 4,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tree


    southun?

    Theres more room there is all. Sadly with weather like this all hte beer garden places will be packed to the gills. Depending on how i am, i shall try to join ye for a few hours.

    Oooh, that's this Friday, I shouldn't be able to go this Friday cos I have to prepare for Glastonbury. Are people still going?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,780 ✭✭✭JohnK


    I'm still on for it anyway but I wouldnt be staying out past 10~11 as I've to be in the airport for 6.30 on Saturday morning.

    unless I am mistaken, tom barrys is very near where I live, I could go up there and snag a table outside unless its raining, then something inside, which there isnt a whole lot of inside.

    You're some retard. And well, if Johns going despite early morning airport appointments, surely you can do the same.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    I know, I'm a complete dickhead; I forgot about Friday and arranged to have the youngfella to come down for the weekend, so we could organise ourselves for the trip to Glastonbury on the Thursday after.

    Do you want to be the one to tell my 11 year old I want to go drinking instead? :)

    He's 11? Sure there's no problem then so! Just bring him along, we can start is education in the finer arts of drinking :)

    (Part of me is surprised that you think I couldn't tactfully explain to an 11 year old that daddy wanted to go drinking. I mean, "Daddy has to go get sh*tfaced before he can cope with the idea of looking after you all weekend" is tactful, isn't it? Probably not true, but tactful all th same, I think...)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Be honest with you, I was expecting you to ask for his phone number.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,076 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    Ummm, I'm gonna back away from all the horrendously wrong jokes that can be made on the back of your last post. Because, well, no.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,660 ✭✭✭Blitzkrieger


    How about telling him you're going out for a packet of smokes?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Nah, I quit them, he'd never believe me. I'll tell him I'm going out for some crack-cocaine and some ho's.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,660 ✭✭✭Blitzkrieger


    You could put all your clocks forward four hours and tell him it's time for bed.

    Don't mind that sun - it stays out for ages at this time of year. Global warming and all that.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 4,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tree


    i've inadvertently booked myself in for a houseparty teaching a friend of mine how to do shepards pie this friday. whoops


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,660 ✭✭✭Blitzkrieger


    worst. excuse. ever. Nobody needs to be taught how to make shepards pie.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    What Blotch said. And I just after telling the youngfella that beer comes first!

    (Heh, Blotch. That was supposed to be Blitz, dunno how it came out as that. New nickname though!)

    At first I thought you were calling me a beyotch. I can't decide if that's better or worse.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    But you are a beyotch.

    So are we all going drinking then? Will there be more than two or three of us?

    adam


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,780 ✭✭✭JohnK


    I'm still on for it anyway. Might not be flying out on Saturday now but I havent fully decided yet.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,076 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    So are you actuall going now, adam?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Course I am. Was there really ever any doubt?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 4,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tree


    indeed there was. If this goes ahead i'll drop in for a preshepard's pie pint

  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Don't mind that crap, do the shepherd's pie stuff first, and bring it with you.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 4,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tree


    there's an awful lot of ppl looking to devour it. and it's the far side from tom barry's, its across from the operahouse like


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    I'm having it for dinner tonight, so make something else instead. Pizza lads?

    C'mon woman, get started!

    adam


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,660 ✭✭✭Blitzkrieger


    I'm sure we'll be ready for soakage by that stage. Just when are we starting anyway?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,780 ✭✭✭JohnK


    5 was mentioned earlier, thats what I was planning on.

    are random corkoians allowed or is it just your tight knit group?


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,076 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    Randomers are more than welcome, although be warned that:

    a) I will probably be wearing a shirt considered offensive by ayone possessing working eyeballs. Such is life.
    b) Unfortunately, adam will be there and, well, there's not a lot we can do about it. He just turns up everywhere. Smile, nod, and avoid getting caught in enclsoed spaces with him. (Comically, much the same can be said about myself. Although at least I wear the horrendous shirts as a warning).
    c) Should the night go on long enough, adam will probably try to bully people into drinking what we now consider the Suicide Cocktail, also known as an Old Fashioned. Partake at risk to your own liver, sanity and hangover the next day.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Old Fashioned's are for girls. I drink straight meths these days.

    N00bs are always welcome, call or text my mobile on the day to hook up with us.

    The password is 'fyshisgay'. He is you know.

  • Moderators, Arts Moderators, Regional Abroad Moderators Posts: 11,076 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fysh


    Shush, adam! It's no fun if they're forewarned!

    (That being said, I do remember being cracked onto by a 90 year old fella the last time we had a boards outing, so you may be onto something...)


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Course it's supposed to rain tomorrow too. FFS.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,660 ✭✭✭Blitzkrieger


    Sure it'll be dry in the pub. Are we still aiming for 5 o'clock or should we postpone a couple of hours for the 9-5rs?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Screw the 9-5ers. They can turn up when they're done with their miserable hours, and put up with us being fished as parts.


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators Posts: 4,726 Mod ✭✭✭✭Tree


    fished as parts \o/


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 16,659 ✭✭✭✭dahamsta


    Mmmmm, beer....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,780 ✭✭✭JohnK


    I'm getting thirsty now :)
