    Hello guys,

    I've been twice to Dublin, and there is something which I always wonder.
    After night clubs are closed, where the hell do you go ??? I mean here in Spain clubs close near 6 o clock, so you can come back home to sleep or even go to an after to keep up the party, but going out at night here is kinda of weird as when you are at your best having fun and with 5-6 pints in your body, you have to go home.... Do you organise parties at flats ?? are there any ilegal clubs who break the shutting down time ??? wow If lived there it would be awful to be stranded at 3 in the morning with everything closed....

    Cheers

    Start drinking 3 hours earlier.
    Simple.

    Most people stagger around the streets getting sick and starting fights. Then on into any of our many fine fast food restaurants to eat some good wholesome food. Possibly get involved in a knife fight there. Then wait around for 2 hours for a taxi to bring you home.

    Some of us go back to sessions in our friends houses, or find dodgy late night bars.

    Yeah I also noticed that :D
    maybe its me I felt i little bit shocked to go home at 3, the time it usually starts the big party here..... Then I thought that maybe there's a hidden club route to continue partying or whatever...

    What SantaHoe said - start drinking at 8pm instead of 11pm.

    Not all of our lives revolve around the ability to stay out drinking until the wee small hours. Some of us go home with our better halves and do... other things.

    Hello guys,

    when you are at your best having fun and with 5-6 paints in your body

    Well for a start, drinking paint is never a good idea...

    After the clubs close, find a woman, find an alley, house, spare room, ditch... anything... give her a good fuukin and then go to a take away, get a kebab, drop it all over yourself... find another woman.... fuuk her and then go home happy...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,984 ✭✭✭✭Lump


    TBH, if you leave a club at 3.30, 30 minutes stagger to the take away, 30 minutes waiting for yer fewd, 30 minutes musing over the action out side the take away, while eating your food. 45 minute fall up the road to your house, or wait for taxi. Hence it is 5.45.... I dont see much differance, go to bed for an hour, get up for work..... Job done.

    usually we start drinking around 5. and carry on drinking till the clubs/pubs close.
    Then head back to someones house and eat loads and loads of toast.
    Then watch some terrible film on channel four (and love it) And usually fall asleep on the couch.
    If clubs closed at 6am or around then, we'd be only getting home for the teletubbies and all those kids programs, i think im happier with catching all those dreadful late night films.

    Go home and cry, usually.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,057 ✭✭✭Wacker


    I always go straight to the Nitelink. Skip the food, save your money. You probably won't even remember it the next day anyway.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 637 ✭✭✭Emmo


    Spirit if your well off your face.

    If not there are loads of parties around the city. Be friendly and you will deffo get invited back somewhere, you never know might even be by a young lady / gentleman (whatever takes your fancy!)

    Shush you, you'd be the sort standing behind two blokes pushing each other outside a burger joint at 3 in the morning, egging them on...

    "Nice one Johner, nice one..."

    I'm sorta like that, but I does need me cup of coffee, so that I wake up in time to get off at the end of the journey instead of heading back into town unconscious.

    Hello guys,

    I've been twice to Dublin, and there is something which I always wonder.
    After night clubs are closed, where the hell do you go ??? I mean here in Spain clubs close near 6 o clock,

    So what's a nice Spanish boy like you doing in a place like this??

    Viper Room on quays stays open till about 4, some people think it's a bit dodge but I think it's OK.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 790 ✭✭✭Redleslie2


    If there's enough friends still standing and if I've no work the next day or even sometimes if I do, I occassionally go to The Chancery (opens at 7am) on the quays. The problem is, after a couple of pints there, you sort of sober up, get a second wind and suddenly at about 10 or 11 o'clock it seems like a great idea to go drinking the whole day. I don't think we know when to stop really.

    The Chancery reviewed by The Slate last year.
    If you feel like a completely mad experience, then look no further than this lairy boozer. Unlike most other early houses, there are bouncers on the door, but judging from the people inside, you would probably, have to be Mike Tyson or Johnny Adair to get turned away. The Chancery is the only early house that is usually full of headers, and definitely not recommended for any night workers looking for a quiet pint at the end of a shift. Rammed to the gills and featuring very decent juke box, this marks a bizarre turn for the concept of a disco bar. Dancing clubbers are surrounded by everyone to locals sinking 10 quick one before the day gets going.

    Initial impressions might suggest exactly the opposite, but most people hero are very friendly, with remarkably high tolerance level for blather.

    Although getting in seems to be alright but looking ****ed will do your cause no favours, so relax as you approach the door and try not to have your eyes rolling around in their sockets while talking to the bouncers. Another problem with gaining entry is the fact that this place fills up very quickly on a Saturday. If you arrive much later than 8.30. you will probably have to wait outside until a few people leave,


    Tales from the Chancery's VIP lection:

    Party Boy from Jackass dropping his pants and trying to get people to kiss his arse as well as dancing around on tables Generally "going crazy" according to the barman,

    Shane MacGowan drinking "as if it was going out of fashion" (surprise surprise).

    Brendan O'Connor from Don't Feed The Gondolas "being a tit", not paying for drinks, and trying to make out he was more of a celeb than he was.

    Thankfully though, famous nobs are almost never to be found in this place, and if you catch It on the tight Saturday morning, it’s the best boozing experience in Dublin.
