    Pizza from PHQ with garlic bread, fries and some dips.

    This is making me hungry.

    I'm staying in myself. Have a massive essay due the first week of Jan so I really need to get a good chunk of that done tomorrow. Plus, I really don't enjoy being out for New Years at all, I find it all very messy, crowded, sweaty, expensive and tedious. I'm down in the country at the mo and it costs about €30 to get a taxi home (which could be a problem with the current weather!)

    Most of my year was spent working, studying etc and I probably spent about 5 nights with my parents during the whole of 2009 so tomorrow I'm gona get into my snuggy pyjamas, put on my slippers, pour a glass of wine and be with my family and my doggie when the New Year begins! :D:D
    I hope I never turn into that^

    I'd appreciate it if you keep your ignorance to yourself.

    By all means express your preferences for New Years but there's no need for what you wrote.

    Dressing up and going to have fun with acquaintances. Still don't know what I'm doing with my hair or how formal to dress. All part of the fun. I think this'll be my first new years out for the countdown!

    Really looking forward to what should be an a-typical new years night out.

    No offence intended.

    Just different strokes for different folks and all that. I hope you enjoy your night.

    Anyway, havn't a clue what i'm doing this New Years. Leaving it to the final hours as usual...

    Well your in a good place. Be heading out that way for the day tomorrow but coming back into town for the Midnight Hour.

    Go to Tomangos, that's where the gang goes ;)

    your You're from cavan right?

    What's with the massive insult? That one cut me deep.

    There is one nightclub in my town and it's cr*p and I have refused to go to it since I was 18. The only other place charging in is a small hotel with a small function room, it gets wedged in there as people descend on it from every pub in town.

    The reason I am not going anywhere that charges in is not to save €10, it's to save my sanity.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,199 ✭✭✭G-Money


    Have to say I'm not that mad keen on the thought of going out in town. I imagine everywhere is going to be insanely packed and getting home will be a nightmare.

    Really don't know if I could be arsed.

    I could go out locally on my own, but I'm very "meh" about all of it.

    No normal bars all shut their doors at 10:30 but for an extra €20 you can buy a ticket to sit in the same seat you usually do so, but normally for free.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,880 ✭✭✭Canis Lupus


    Going to a comedy club in Covent Garden. Will probably end up being a stupid idea but who knows.

    normal local pubs wont do that. Seriously does anyone know if weekend opening hours apply to pubs tonight??

    Yes weekend hours apply, same as they would on the sunday night of a bank holiday weekend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,640 ✭✭✭Pushtrak


    Pub, to see a band that I don't even know are any good. Oh, and the smoking area is outside. Don't know how much it is in yet, either, but the place tends to overcharge. Feck.

    Had a cold the last few days, thats gone now which is good. Just hope I don't end up with another in a few days.

    Someone told me Dicey's are doing 3 euro drinks tonight which I seriously doubt, I think I will just go out tomorrow instead it will be a better night.

    but they weren't open late last sunday, and monday was a bank holiday. It's all so confusing.

    It's hard to believe I'm only going to masturbate 8 more times in 2009.

    the 3 bars close to my flat weren't open past 11 anyway, so you're wrong

    Meant to be seeing a girl, stuck minding my little sister, epic faill.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 58,456 ✭✭✭✭ibarelycare


    I dunno what I'm doing tonight....bloody New Years. All my friends are kinda scattered, most of them are staying in with family/boyfriends. My bf's friend is having people over but he only decided that today so it could end up being 4/5 people in a house drinking in the new year together...depressing!

    I was thinking of booking a cheap hotel in town just for the 2 of us and trying to get a table for dinner, then get back to the room before midnight, cheap bottle of bubbly and ring in the New Year together. Loads of rooms available in the city centre for as little as €89, just dunno how hard it would be to get a table in a restaurant at this stage.

    work

    i hate you all

    the pub i work in is operating at normal thursday hours, ie. closing at half 11

    i would imagine most pubs are doing the same
