The First Dopefest of the Real New Millenium

They have good Guinness so there’s really only one choice :slight_smile:
What to eat. I’ve heard good things about the food as well -compared VERY favourably to other type Irish restaurants.

Andy, you aren’t too biased against us micks are you?

I got a wonderful chuckle when on 60 Minutes recently, they showed building sites in Dublin with Englishmen stacking
bricks :wink:

mmmmmm Thai mmmmmmm - sounds good to me.

I’ll be there.

Great Andy!
I’ll try to keep the republican songs to a minimum :wink:

no worries really! you wont hear any.

::rooting around for the tape of Ireland victory over England in the Qualifier::

Well, not too biased, but I suppose that’s rather subjective :smiley:

Mike G, heaven sent to organise DopeFests

I’ll be there, too. Apologies to Andy for not calling yesterday, but I’ve been a wee bit busy. I’m a mick, too, y’know. Can’t trust us. :smiley:

Ahh Nymmy, we know why you weren’t paying attention:)
Hell if I had similar…distractions, I’d drop of the boards for good (maybe)

So who wants to do Thai before the drunken debauchery starts?

Penny’s Noodles is kitty corner from O’Hagans
not the most authentic, but tasty and fresh

gotta save room for the Curry chips at O’Hagans!!

And they have Lucozade and Club Orange if thats your thing Andy.

If we’re talking proper chips with curry sauce, you can forget speaking to me for a good hour or so while I indulge my curry desire…mmmmmm…curry sauce.

Seriously, I doubt I’ll be there early enough to eat, but I’ll try.

So what are curry chips and how much room should I leave for them?

Yes Andy, proper English chips with lovely curry sauce!!!

they’re finally starting to show up on the Irish restaurant menus.

Piney, think thick cut chips ala fish n’… with a mild yellow curry sauce on the side .
That and a little vinegar and I’m set to go!

Chip buddies too…dunno if I spelled that right
