A Grand Day Out

Tree

Would anyone be interested in goin to the beach?

It'll take a slight bit more organization than three ppl goin to the pub, but sure the sea is worth it all. (and no, nerds dont actually melt on contact with natural resources, its a myth so ppl wont leave their computer screens)

The only issue is probably that I need months and months of notice to get a saturday off and sundays are no go, though i think most of the rest of the planet have nine to fives so it shouldnt be to hard to organise w/o me :S

Should be a laugh with a couple of car loads, and I know LMM would be well keen on the idea. Put me down for two.

Fysh

I'll take five! Wait, no, scratch that. One please.

(sounds like fun, but I'm assuming other people can provide the car-like goodness. I certainly can't, anyway...)

Tree

while to call the mothers vehicle a car would a be a slight exageration, we can say i'll have a car (dinky)

I can take three other ppl plus a handbag

I hate the beach - I absolutely loathe having sand in my pants. But if it gets rained out and moved to the pub.....

How many people are on 9 to 5 and how many can go on a weekday? I do shift work so it's a coin flip for me.

Same here, but it's a once-off so screw it. Or we could get some non-drinkers on board and go to Midleton for some whiskified entertainment. Wouldn't envy the non-drinkers though.

I can head off anytime, but I'd imagine the weekend would work better.

i am not a nine to fiver, the joys of the service industry and studentness!!

and you dont have to wear pants, thats the joys of the beach!! sure you'll come anyway! you can sit on a rock or summat

CorkMan

I'd be up for it.

Tree

right so, can we set a date so?

preference for the weekend i presume, so i can suggest a saturday sometime in june so ill have time to write in

rymus

I'll come along and skulk behind some shrubs. Or rocks. Whichever is more plentiful.

Tree

we can bury yo inhte sand if you want

dahamsta

Don't, he'll probably spend about four hours trying to set up a shot of a single grain of sand!

rymus

naw, the macro lens is too awkward to carry everywhere...

Tree

bring some fast film to capture the stones in teh air as they are tossed at adam perhaps? and take none of me in swimwear

rymus

pff.. .film.. That's so 1990's

Tree

retro can rock, even if it costs an arm and a leg to develop...

dahamsta

Mmmm, toss.

Tree

hrmmmm, i think we'll ahve to find a beach without children if we're taking you out in public

dahamsta

Mmmm, pubic.

Dizzyblabla

ooh ooh, can I come and show off my tan? I'm a shift worker also, so anytime suits me, and also a driver, so even better! as for dates, my roster is here: http://freecal.brownbearsw.com/Dizzyblabla might not all be completely correct, but should be ok...

Tree

right so. saturday the tenth of june. any problems?


ill write in for it off tomoz afternoon. hopefully i can get it

Blitzkrieger

There is so much on that weekend. I'll have to catch the next one

Dizzyblabla

****e, my schedule thing online was messed up, I'll still be in Turkey, but can do the sunday!!

Tree

i defo cant do sundays. it seems im free the 3rd and fourth of june (sun and mon bankholiday i think) if we want ot push it forward

(i cant do other sundays, i got that one off by fluke)

ummmm, maybe dizzyblabla's in turkey that week too :S

given that im vaguely blondey, maybe we should make it hte 17th?

Shanannigan

wow thats freaky, i had one of those Wayne's World dreams the other night, no weird naked indian or jim morrison, but an idea to go to the beach popped into my head, and the 17th of june came up as the date for it... i'm thinkin the beach down in Shanagarry would be perfect, and we could light a fire, and i know some folks from ballycotton who can get some fresh seafood off the pier, and if every1 goin brought a six pack... or if every 2 persons go halves on a slab so if 12 ppl go there'd be 6 slabs(hopefully there'll be more than 12 ppl)... and i was even considering bookin a mini-bus, and doin an all nighter down there.. and if anyone wants to bring a guitar/bongo drum or any other thing that makes music/beats

Dizzyblabla

that sounds like fun! that way I can drink too?!

Tree

shannagarrys nice, and close enough to drag blitzkrieger along too!

Blitzkrieger

Normally maybe - but I'm going to be in Dublin both of those weekends. I may even be living there by then (but I doubt it).

Shanannigan

if you book them they will come

Tree

what are we bookin now?

Dizzyblabla

whatever we're booking for the 17th I can't do it anyway. I'm on bloody nights.. stoopid shift work...
