  • Registered Users Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kdouglas


    at minimum, 6 i think, this weekend looks to have a good turnout, at least 12 id say


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,323 ✭✭✭Spitfire666


    i could well be there at some stage over the weekend, provided sex/karting or the urge to go out and buy a quadbike doesnt get in the way.

    karting could well be an issue, then sex, and i am looking into a quad bike but less so then sex and karting.

    I'm getting the stock extention for the p90, its rubber at the back and adds a few inches to allow for a bigger battery, but it wont be here for a wek or so.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kdouglas


    hmmm, i'd be interested to see that, considered it myself but prefer the non-extended stock

    Games usually start around 11, pre-game waffling and gear admiration takes a while :p If you have a lot of gear you'd want to turn up at least 30 minutes early.

    I'm getting a lift out so I won't be at the spire.

    A typical saturday:
    05:00 : Scope wakes up, curses HRTA for being in Dublin, and gets ready for the 3 hour bus to Dublin.
    10am : I arrive at HRTA all by my lonesome.
    10:15 : Paul and Mel arrive.
    10:30 : Two or three other people show up.
    11:00 : Games actually get started.
    11:15 : Another 3-4 people have arrived.
    11:30 : Almost everyone has arrived.
    14:00 : Nigel arrives. Everyone goes for lunch.
    .
    We shoot each other
    .
    17:45 games normally wind down. Might get a quick CQB game in before 6pm.

    Try to be there for 10:30!

    I'll be driving up, and won't be anywhere near the city centre. Soz

    Below is a map for you. It's fairly accurate. Lower Abbey street looks weird from above.

    From Burgh Quay, go across the bridge, Keep walking up O'Connell street until you see Luas tram lines. Turn right (following the tracks...and I don't mean walk on them). After 1-2 mins, you should see some bus shelters. Look for the one that has a timetable for the 41/41c. That's the bus you need. They are every 15-30 mins depending on the time of the day.

    41 bus : When it gets to Swords village, it swings left onto Rathbeale road just after the Centra shop (ask the driver to let you know where you are there). About half way down the Rathbeale road you will see lots of electricity transformers etc. This is where you get off. Keep going down Rathbeale road and keep an eye out for the HRTA laneway opposite the huge tree.

    41c bus : Similar, but when the bus leaves swords village it goes on a big loop around Rathbeale road, but still ends up at the electricty transformers.
