    Actually thats true... The Berlin Love Parade.. (is that still going?)

    It's **** now compared to 7 or 8 years ago, was even cancelled for a few years. I think it was after 2001 that it went downhill, the law in Germany claimed that the parade was a commercial event and this meant the organisers would be held legally responsible for all costs. Was much better before when they weren't :D

    Oh, and it won't be in Berlin either as they couldn't get permission from the relative authorities to hold it there.

    a full moon party in Thailand before I die....

    That's something I want to do again, best party I've been to. It's amazing dancing in the morning on sunrise beach watching the sun come up over the ocean. Even as drunk as I was I still couldn't jump in the water and swim considering everyone on the beach had been using it as a toilet for the previous 12 hours :eek:

    I'd always wanted to do the Oktoberfest when I was young but my drinking capacity is drastically reduced nowadays, kinda a waste to go now, apart from the food...

    Hold the phone - There's FOOD at the Oktoberfest?!?!?!
    So that's where I went wrong. I'll remember that this year. :D

    I've always wanted to climb Everest, maybe not all the way but base camp is still 8,000 feet up. That bull-run would be cool too, I'd say it really gets the adrenaline flowing

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,584 ✭✭✭shane86


    Go to Vegas, get paralytic drunk and wake up next to a stripper I had met at 7pm and married before midnight.

    Run into Eamonn Dunphy in a bar/club in town and chat about Rafa, Jose, Keano, Stan/Ireland and of course, Cristiano and John Delaney :D (work once held a Friday night do in Renards nightclub for us, was disappointed the mouth wasnt there as hes a regular i think :( )

    Appear on tv rubbered (happy Sky 1 Ibiza Uncovered type drunk, not giving abuse/making an arse of myself like the knobs you see on that Bouncers show on ITV :) )


    Rattle the arse off either the young blonde bird from Heroes or Catalina from My Name is Earl.

    Either.

    Or preferably both.

    At the same time ;)
