    Just do it!

    I'm not going to lie, it can be awkward and weird for a few minutes but that passes. Just go around and find out who is who and have the chats and a bit of craic.

    If ya don't like someone, move on to the next group. I only knew Whoopsy at my first beers. Iv since gone to more beers, met more awesome people, gone away for weekends, festivals at home and in Denmark with the fcukers.

    Great craic!

    *He said, as he wrote his will.

    On a serious note, would anyone want to meet up to go to the beers? Help with the old nerves and what not.

    Yeah I wouldn't mind going but don't want to walk in and know nobody. On the other hand, it could be just as awkward walking in and knowing someone.

    Who's welcome at these things?

    I was wondering about this....do you get a nametag or something when you walk in or do you just awkwardly introduce yourself to all and sundry?

    what usually happens is someone posts what they are wearing - then you go into pub and look for the group with that wearing item. Then you get locked and then the fun happens as you end up with 3 pieces of data:
    Persons real name
    Persons username
    Persons face

    However - because your meeting so many new people and consuming alot of alcohol this all gets jumbled up and you start mixing these up :cool:

    Am a big ugly ****er so not too worried :D Am sure 99.9% of people on here are really nice irl and nothing like their online personas and am looking forward to.meeting them. Worse case scenario is someone doesn't like me, i can get over that quite quickly with another beer :D
