WI think we would be fine anytime that weekend (9th or 10th).
Poly, we haven’t been home much, sorry for the delay. We have been painting and cleaning at the house. We move next weekend.

If it is on the weekend, I’m sure Sqrl and I, and a small contingency from the DC-metro area will make it. Friday night, however, wouldn’t give us enough time to get off work and drive down.
This thread slipped by me the last time it was up, but something brought it to mind just now, so I dug it back up. Are y’all still thinking in terms of the weekend of March 10? If so, I’ll check with the wife.
Like dc and Sqrl, it would be a lot easier for me to come down on if it’s on a Saturday, whichever weekend we do this on.
(Just don’t move it to 3/17, because there’s a DC Dopefest that evening.)
Looks like I’ll be in town 'til Sunday after all, so I withdraw my objections to Saturday.
All right. I’d been hoping that people’d express their preferences since there did seem to be a time conflict. In view of the Fretful Porpentine withdrawing her objections, and hearing no other objections, I declare the matter carried.
Saturday, March 10, in the Tavern of the Irish Afterlife it shall be. Details shall follow as they get pulled together.
Sounds good to me too, I’ll keep that date open if possible.
So all these South Carolinians and DC people are chiming in…are lowly Richmonders allowed a foot in the door as well?
I don’t know yet if I can make it or not, but I’d love to try. Then aenea can’t bitch that I ignore her any more.
No, seriously…I’d love to try to make it as well. How far is Raleigh from Richmond, anyhow?
I need to verify with Mr. C3, but he owes me one, so count us in!
I’ve been to Tir Na Nog, too! Pretty cool place!
Hama!! Youbetcha! C’mon down.
What’s Richmond, 50 miles from the border (look at a I-95 exit number)? It’s about 40 miles from the border to Raleigh. I’ll post directions.
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that I will be there with or without Mr. Smoothie. An Irish pub sounds splendiforous.
Hammy, do try and come down. It’s no more than 2 hours from Richmond, I drove up there to have dinner with Una, and it wasn’t that bad at all.
*Aenea, who is doing her happy dance now…
I reckon I’ll try to make it. Need good directions though…
As a former Triangler, I’d love to make it. It is the weekended of the ACC Tourney, though. And I am 800 miles away in SoFla.
Go Blue Devils!
Forgive me for asking, but what is Tir Na Nog? Can you tell I don’t get off campus much?
For a minute, that threw a scare into me - if the ACC Tournament were in the Research Triangle area, there wouldn’t be a hotel room to be had in Raleigh that weekend.
Fortunately, it’s in Atlanta, which means it’s Somebody Else’s Problem.
Time to check your calendars folks, and let us know if you are willing and able to attend.
(plus, this thread just needed a bump)
I’ll be there, and Jacki’s probably coming along too.
March 10th is great…Tygr and I will be there. I love Tir Na Nog… (Guess that was obvious since I suggested it.) I can’t drink beer right now, but I can be Tygr’s Designated Driver.
Anyway, do we have a time for meeting?
I’ll be there.
I can’t go. I’ll be heading in the opposite direction that day from Washington to pick up Anniz in Newark, NJ.
Have fun without me, folks.
