[note] I swear, this will be the last one I start before the event ;).

Meanwhile, back on the ranch, Bo duke and Daisy are going to visit Boss Hogg…  
sorry, got hijacked into a Dukes of Hazzard type scenario.

Dublin, October 12th to the 15th in the year of our lord, Michael Flatley, 2000.

The attendees will be as follows

1. Tatertot
2. Coldfire
3. GlobeTrotter
4. GlobeTrotters globe trotting companion
5. Trion
6. his ever lovely wife, Mrs. Trion
7. Spiny Norman
8. Yojimbo
9. Micilin
10. Ruadh  
11.Twistyskates

(hopefully we will have London\_Calling aswell, but he has not been confirmed.)

The plan is as so far confirmed… (correct me if I’m wrong)  
Trion shall be here all week, unfortunately will be departing on Friday, so will be Partying on Thursday night.  
For all the laggers on, The events of the weekend will probably be planned as we go… but any requests will be honored.

If anyone wants a postcard, Mail their address to my e-mail here on the Board and we will send out a card to you.

we will probably be really cheap and mass produce cards for you all, but the intention will be there! 😉 (enough jibes about the road to hell please!)  
Any thoughts or details or requests, here’s the Place!

Happy Happy Joy Joy,  
John

Screw the postcard. I want a round trip ticket so I can attend the event personally but if that’s too much to ask… I guess a postcard will have to do. I’ll get my address to you later today.

Can I have Twisty’s Stroopwafels? And just between you and me, Globetrotter and Trion have been talking about arranging for group Irish Dancing lessons instead of going pubbing. They think it will be “bonding”. Just thought you should know…😉

My goodness Tater, what have you been smoking? The only dancing we’ll be doing is on tables! 😃

The plan sounds about right to me. 🙂

I’ll check in later. Right now I have a full day of work ahead of me where I’m actually expected to _work_.

Bastards!

Uhm Globie? You WILL be dancing Nekkid, right? Cause it’s illegal to table dance whilst dressed in Dublin. Isn’t it, lads?

That’s a dirty lie. You must forfeit your stroopwafels.

Dangit Anne, why must you wake up so early and foil my plans?

Hey, I’m trying to download ICQ as we speak, but it’s not cooperating. As soon as it works, I’ll e-mail you my number.

Oh, and since at this hour we’re all talking amongst ourselves anyway, let me tell you that Mr. Tot scored 37% on his test! The lowest score yet…how bizarre.

Early? It’s almost 8 am here. Busy at work wouldn’t you know it. 😉

Coldie : I knew that would get your attention. 😛

Tater, they’re already living in Irish time. And rightfully so. I’ve been sleeping in an extra hour for weeks now.

He most certainly is. He and Coldie will be setting up a lovenest 😉

Re: The tart with the cart. Here in Dublin we have a tradition of naming local landmarks with less than offical names. The Molly Malone Statue is the so called tart ( [http://www.photo.net/photo/pcd1120/dublin-molly-malone-58](http://www.photo.net/photo/pcd1120/dublin-molly-malone-58) )

There is the hags with the bags , the whore in the sewer and so on.

Coldie how do you know so much about Irish Law ? That is indeed one of our most sensible laws.

I go to get a sandwich and I get 15 replies!

Ok, add duke to the list.

If we invite the Coor sisters, Jim might turn up aswell, and then, well, the effect will be spoiled.

Coldy, we try and sleep in an extra hour aswell, but what makes you think you’ll be getting any sleep? we have a 3 hour mo-mo grand prix to do!

Listen, if Jim Corr shows up, I’ll do the noble thing and entertain him. How’s that? Hell, if this ain’t friendship, I don’t know what is.
