Dublin DinnerDopeFest - April 11

Can I get a location for Salamanca?
Shazz (Sharon and I) will be there for 7. Yes, she’s single. Not that anyone asked, but just in case you’re wondering.

Weeee…just a few days to go!!! I am still in the ice ages and don’t have a cell but I’ll email Twisty with Shazz’s cell phone number.

(Just FYI, John has forbidden me from going ‘up north’ past the Liffey for he fears all the baddies of the world will unite to mug, attack, generally molest and punch me. He’s so cute! A real southsider!)

How to find Salamanca

Yay! It’s today!

See you all at 7pm.

I made it at the end of the evening. Very good finally to meet you, Annie. And everyone else, too.

Perhaps not quite so good was to drink ‘till dawn, have three hours’ sleep, and then to do the same thing again last night.

But it was fun at the time…

Thanks to everyone. I shall post sincere and heartfelt comments when I’ve had more than 3 hours of sleep in a row. The birdies were chirping on our way home on Saturday morning. Very nice songs, birdies.

Out on the tear on Saturday night as well and now I’m wiped out.

It was lovely to meet all of you and it goes without saying you’re all invited to visit us here in Galway!

Nice to meet you too Anahita, it was a great night, and thanks to micilin and mrs micilin for inviting the hordes back to their gaff to extend the party.
Sorry I spilled beer all over you, Hibernicus, on the first time I met you and thanks to yojimbo for gallantly pouring me into a taxi.
I think I might still be a tad hungover you know.

Yeah good night. Lots of craic and good company. Sorry I wasn’t around the next day Annie but as the night only ended for me at around 3pm the next day. I went home and looked at a DVD for some reason and then slept the rest of the day and night away.

Looking forward to the next one.

Thanks to you all for listening to my shite-talking. It was a great night. You all have contributed greatly to my lack of sleep and demented tiredness.

Thanks again to micilin and his not-wifeb] for allowing us to trash your home. I especially liked the Carpenters, yojimbo. Thanks for the walking tour of Dublin, jjimm. Curly Chick is the only one who wanted to eat my Persian cooking, but the rest of you are also invited. After all, she is the most eligible woman in all of Dublin (and Spain!).

** Did I mention how lovely she is?

We’ll be up for Easter weekend from the Friday through Monday, if anyone wants to meet up for drinks. You can get my number from Twisty.

Look at what you made me do!

Go raibh maith agat agus/y muchos gracias

New signature line for me, then!

(Personally, I agree with the Baldrick definition of irony - “it’s like like coppery and goldy”)

yeesh, the one night I have to leave a fest early and you go and have an all-nighter!

Sorry I couldn’t make it. An unforeseen double booking with the missus meant I was left holding the baby (literally).

In any case, Maeve was good alternative company and she raised a bottle to you at bedtime. At ten months, her line in conversation is similar to yojimbo’s after a few pints;).

So, anyone on for next weekend? Maybe Saturday?

Sounds like you all had a good time.

I couldn’t go because I didn’t hear of any final arrangements(I only checked back in here at half nine last fri nite).

I’d love to meet the Dopers who live in Ireland.

If anything happens this weekend it can’t be friday, because Holy Catholic Ireland will be abstaining form drink!

Please if anything is happening will someone tell me.

Thanks

I believe some of the DubDopers will be back in Culchie-land, but I’m sure we can get a few together for a lunch, at least.

I’ll be with the in-laws in Kerry all weekend but lunch somewhere in town on Thursday would be good (I’m not sure if that’s what was intended though).

I am off to England tomorrow, so I will have to bow out.
Enjoy yourselves.

Won’t be around myself as I’m packing up all my worldly goods and getting the crap I’ve been carting around with me for years now ready for a skip.

Moving ASAP next month, wohoo :slight_smile:

I’ll be in West Cork all weekend. Apologies.
