Why don’t we do this: one of the local yokels picks us clueless Dutch barbarians up at a central location (say, the Avalon house ;)), and leads us to where the feast is. It’s not like we care where we’ll be pouring pints and pints of the black stuff down our throats. 
Small 'murrican co-ed must pull out of said festivities, as bastard professors have assigned a 10-page paper on Arthurian legends due the 21st.
Grumble.
So? We’ll help you write it 
Yeah! I’ll cover chapter 9: Post-modern Arthurian legends, or: The Holy Grail. 
Given that the furriners are staying in Avalon House, shouldn’t we meet up somewhere nearby? Is the Long Hall a possibility - we can always move on.
Aro, are you still coming? If so, check your mail.
Long Hall / Hogans / The Central Hotel (We’ll get seats) / Corner Stone etc are all good they lack a certain North element to them.
Twisty and ruadh where are you thinking of?
I’m not sure yet… I’ll have to go out tonight on my own to investigate.
If you’re not back in two hours, we’ll send out a search party.
So, how’s about the lobby of the Avalon house at 19:00 on saturday night?
Who’ll pick us up? Is another place more convenient?
I think I still got Twisty’s and ruadh’s cell phone numbers programmed. You guys got mine too, judging by the text messages I get when a certain national team in green jerseys knock another team in orange jerseys out of the WC qualifiers.
BTW, Holland is back on track, beating Austria 3-0, very convincingly. Anyway! What say youse guys?
I think 7.00 will be a bit early for me (and Avalon House definitely too far south :)), so someone should ring/ text me whenever you move on.
My vote for the northside venue is still McGowan’s, but I’ll leave it with you guys.
I vote Mulligans of Poolbeg street.
Mulligan’s is OK by me, even if it’s just about southside and it may be a bit packed. It’s the local pub for my office but that’s no problem on a Saturday night.
BTW, why do people always seem to give the street name when mentioning Mulligan’s (I find myself doing it too) - is there another Mulligan’s?
I’m sure there is, but the only mulligans I know is the one on Poolbeg street
If we’re meeting up at 7pm Mulligans should be fine. At that time we’ve plenty of options anyway. I’ll be away from a comp. tomorrow :eek: so I’ll ring around on Sat. to see if the plan is still The Avalon @ 7pm.
Cya then.
OK, checking the mobile here.
Twisty, does your mobile end in 376? Then I have it.
ruadh, does yours end in 411?
yojimbo, I can’t seem to find yours - can you drop me a line? Or I’ll drop you one with my number, and you can sms me yours.
Sigh. Wish I were going.
Don’t Aer Lingus now do a direct LA - DUB flight? Quick, it’s not too late.
No. sent to your board email Coldie
