I was wondering why you were so enthusiastic you self-serving git.
Did someone say something about pots and kettles?
A fucking tuesday, eh, manwithaplan.
Interesting concept, is that what you had in mind, Iteki?
If so, we might need a few more girlies, as the greeter in The Bank might get a bit tired.
(I’lll be holding the coats)
I’ve no problem with a wkend night either BTW.
And a break from my hetro life partner (micilin) would be nice.
curly chick everyday is for fucking as far as MWAP is concerned didn’t he tell you this?
I am suffering with a ghastly “oops I drank on a schoolnight” hangover today, so my feelings are similar to mwap’s here. Maybe I’ll change my mind tomorrow.
so are people saying Tues 9th in The Bank on Dame Street then? Or am I way off the mark?
Just out of curiosity too, have there been many Dublin Dopes? Do ye guys know each other well already?
cheers,
utkik
I’ve been to about three - there aren’t that many of us but we can put the drink away.
I think the only Dub Dopers I haven’t met are you, Irishgirl, glass onion and mogiaw (where’s mogiaw these days?). Oh, and I know UDS is Irish, but I don’t know if s/he is in Dublin.
What about Balor?
I have to say I’m looking forward to reducing myself to a state of dribbling idiocy with ye guys! utkik no work good beer without.
Some of us knew each other before here. I did a bit of recruiting when I found this place.
jjimm:- About 5-7 years
manwithaplan:- All my life
micilin:- 15-17 years
were all friends of mine before the board. I’ve met most of the others a few times apart for the few jjimm mentioned.
Looking forward to meeting you utkik. We could do a week day and a wkend piss up. I’d be up for that anyway.
I don’t know Balor.
I missed out Tarantula too… 
Good to see we’re back to the stage of having no idea what we’re doing. Another good day’s work on my part.
To completely break with character and be constructive, may I suggest 12/9 in the shithole beside Doyle’s. Apart from curly chick and possibly jjimm, none of us are posh enough for The Bank on a Friday night and it’s only up the road if anyone wants to pop up for a quick sconce at Dame Street’s premier tourist attractions.
I’m getting a bit weepy. Can I have a hug?
Grr… was waiting for my tax-return to pay for my flight.
By the time tax-return came, flight was about 1200 euros…
mrsIteki then decided to spend both our tax-returns on driving lessons.
Mammy however said she would buy me a ticket (but this is the last time, you hear?!) god love her.
So yet again, I have whored myself to Ryanair. Pray for me.
Getting in evening the 6th, and flying out again on the 12th.
What’s the plan?
Oooh, btw, utkik, your nick intrigues me? Is it what it seems to be?
Hi Dublin Friends,
I always reply these DublinDope threads…but never seem to make it. I will deffo try this time…and any nite seems fine to me…as I don’t start work til 10.30 any morn…apart from saturday morn, when I don’t go in at all…so fri nite would be more than perfect.
I look forward to meetin up with you guys eventually…maybe this time will be the time.
I am very shy tho…which is what has been holding me back in the past.
Ok, this is it. You all do this on purpose.
I will be up in Co. Derry for the week of the 8th but will be in Dublin the 15, 16 and 17th of September, possibly without husband and child. I’m hankering for a downtown hotel instead of clear out in Lusk, so let the party start.
On the other hand, if my maternal instinct wins, I shall be staying at my in-laws in Dublin 6W without the benefit of babysitting, since they’ll be minding her all day.
So, um…that’s it.
okay, right, erm … okay, so let me get this straight … the Dublin Dope is gonna beeee … aw crap, no, I lost it again.
coffee machine broken in work this morning, so utkik isnt firing on all cylinders.
And Iteki, “what it seems to be” really depends on what it is! I used to know what it was, but then they changed it. And now what I think is it isnt it, and what it is seems strange and frightening to me…
christ I need coffee
ooops … hit post before I meant to there. I’m really out of it today.
Anyways Iteki youre probably right on the nickname guess, seeing as where youre from and all. I got it from ‘The Last Grain Race’, a book on the final clipper ship grain run from Belfast to Australia and back on the Moshulu.
So 12/9 is out due to Iteki’s mother’s refusal to spring for a more expensive weekend flight, the inconsiderate witch;). We’ll assume that 6/9 is out as well, given the possibility of a late flight and the probable need of Iteki to keep his Ma sweet by at least saying hello to her before going on the piss.
11/9 anyone?
It’s deffo so, my transparent, bulbous friend. It’ll be rapid.
11th sounds sooper-dooper to me. shine on
11/9 sounds so innocuous that way round, doesn’t it?
Anyway, 11th is good with me, though I think micilin will be at a wedding that w/e.
