As some of you know, Tatertot, queen of the Eurodopers, has arrived on our fair shore. The Land of Saints and scholars will never be the same again 😉 To celebrate this fact, and to welcome her in residence to the Jackeen city, what better than a meeting of the Gals and guys that compromise this boards Riverdance extras and giant pulsating Brains!! A date is yet to be set, but ASAP would be a good start. Who is up for it, and who would be free?? All furrigners are cordially invited, albeit on short notice 😉 So lets hear it for Tracy, the gal who deserves all the best that life can offer!! ---

I’ll open the bidding for a Friday evening affair somewhere in the citycentre. I’m afraid O’Neill’s , Bewleys and Abrakebabra must be off the itinerary (what _were_ you thinking?). ---

Cool. Sign me up. Looking forward to it, whenever/whereever it is. Bewleys was for Brekkie which isn’t too bad. Abrakebabra WTF??? YojimboRuadh?? Is that what we’ll call the kid 😉 I’ll hassle **micilin, manwithaplan** (don’t think you’ve met) etc. ---

Guys, you KNOW there’s nothing more in the world I like than to kick back pints of Guinness with you idiots. Well, very few things. 🙂 But you HAVE to give us EuroTrash (of the Continental Variety) a little more notice than next friggin’ friday! BTW, Rimbo, that cracked me up. 😃 ---

If I get drunk and hide my Playstation 2 controllers on Thursday, I may not remember where they are on Friday, giving me the best chance of escaping Grand Theft Auto 3 for Friday night 😉 May I humbly suggest the Cornerstone on Camden Street? Friday Evening, 23rd of November. after tea time. maybe about 8.30? any suggestions? ---

Anababy, Anahubby and I will be in Dublin to visit the parents on Nov 30-Dec 3, one week too late. Enjoy! (Now, this is assuming that if I weren’t a newbie, and was invited, I’d join you!) A [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/taterdope-or-buscuits-and-gravy-dublin-style/94213.md?page=2)
