Can you all meet up one night, either the 15th, 16th or 17th? I’ll be in Dublin for work.

I’m staying out at Templeogue at the in-laws so maybe those of us wroking in Dublin can meet up for lunch one of the days!

Yeah, right next to the yeast store.

It is a bit strange for the first 5-10 minutes, but then it’s a bit of craic. You’ll know us because some of us will be a bit older than the Trinity crowd there.

**Anahita** , as I work out here in the sticks, I won’t be able to make lunch with you and the urbanites.

However, I am available on the nights of 16th and 17th, if a soiree is in the offing.

I sometimes work in Dublin! Not next week though, unless just possibly we could meet on Monday and I could head down after lunch? Other than that I have to count myself out I’m afraid.

I recommend Canesten, **mwap**.

I only work round the corner, so I’m able to be there earlier, if anyone’s interested.

I’ll be around earlier as well. Not in work(in a internet cafe) so ring me if you want me. I think I’m meeting up with Jimbo around 19:30.

So, Wednesday is out as I’m attending a luncheon of the Architects of Ireland and I have to ‘network.’

Haha.

So, Tuesday is good. Or Monday. I am ‘shadowing’ this really annoying guy so I’ll welcome the break. I’ll text around on Monday morning once venue, time and date are decided.

Ask Twisty for my new mobile number.

Monday is the only possibility for me - on Tuesday I’ll be having lunch in a grim canteen 180 miles away.

About the time, it’s a good idea to try to beat the rush and aim for 12:40 or so if possible. Can anyone think of a place where you can sit and chat at lunchtime, not too pricey?
