    No, I will not be there
    I vote for dark and dingy and not posh.

    Any of them except Flannery's :pac:

    Cake, and grief counseling, will be available at the conclusion of the test

    The Duke is nice, never too loud so good place for conversation!

    It used to be known as 'The Shirtlifters' years ago :pac:

    Sure go on then. Duke is winning. I can break out the fancy clothes and makeup.

    I've never been to The Duke, but it looks and fancy and shít. The Duke it is.

    I don't think I've ever been in the Duke either, and it'll be my first boards beers. Pray for me.

    A way for socially awkward, lonely people to meet friends. Great idea.

    So you're coming then?

    We usually just sit looking at our phones, posting on boards anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 174 ✭✭Sergei Malatov


    No I am having a meet up with my friends on PROC that day.

    Gets a bit awkward when you get banned by the person sitting beside you in the pub. But Ho Hum!

    Hey, I've read about your exploits at other beers from other villages :D

    PROC

    I think you're spelling it wrong :)

    Unless you're from D4, then it sounds about right.

    I thought he meant POF

    It's okay, just smile and nod. That's been working for me so far.

    Just clothes. Its a regular pub. But there is a nice area upstairs that can be reserved....if we are expecting about 20 or so.

    Does it be busy? Like would I need to book an area?

    Its a big enough pub and does get the after work crowd on a saturday night. They may also be showing a soccer game which is a projector on to a screen that pulls down between two areas downstairs. Kinds ruins the place a little.

    Would be no harm to try to book if you are expecting 20 or so. Otherwise just arrange to meet upstairs which is normally quieter than downstairs.

    That sounds like I'll end up with sore facial features and a dodgy neck.

    Arrange to meet up with a like minded attendee before hand.
    Have a scoup together in a different pub and then join the rest feeling a bit braver and comfortable that you at least know one person who will talk with you!
